Any One A Pink Floyd Fan?

[Lanky]

Is any one here on this board Pink Floyd fans?? Here are my most favorite albums of Pink Floyd: Darkside of The Moon, Wish You Were Here, Atom Heart Mother, A Momentary Lapse of Reason, The Division Bell, Animals & Obscured By Clouds. My favorite band member is David Gilmour.

[Ad]

Pink Floyd are an excellant art band dark side of the moon is my favourite and even though its the most comercial The wall is an excellent alum to wish you were here my favourite song of pink floyd :)

[mr_tiki]

oh how i love Pink Floyd

i think thier best playing would have to be the Animals album

also the songs where they use brass insturments i really like

[merlin-1]

Animals and Dark side of the moon are two of my all time favorites. :)

[Sneepboy]

Yes, Im a big Pink Floyd fan. I like David Gilmore's guitar work but I think Roger Waters made the band what it was. I really like Roger Waters solo stuff too. I have seen Pros & Cons of Hitchhiking & Radio KAOS concerts, both from the 3rd row. My favorite Pink Floyd song.........."If"

I have a lot of live and rare Pink Floyd mp3s. I'm on soulseek, my user name is marlowe...I'm in the KLF room.... browse my files -- they're in my music/marlowe/pink floyd

[NIRVANA]

I think NIRVANA has made better music

not saying that pink floyd sux, they've made also some nice songs

[ezyryder]

Pink Floyd are musical geniuses, and yes I love them. I agree, Nirvana themselves were excellent musicians to a degree but Pink Floyd could out-play them I believe (my personal opinnion, others naturally have thier own and entitled to them). Speaking from a technical side in studying music, Pink Floyd also take the biscuit and dunk it into a cup of hot-chocolate with marshmallows :D

[Cerberus]

Definatly a floyd fan, Syd Barrett's solo stuff too. I'm actually in the middle of doing sound enhancements on "The Vinyl Sessions" right now. Check out the VH1 special....it's in five parts so it's a quick DL. See you on the dark side of the moon :huh:

Go and Fuck yourself!

[DiogenesUK]

IMHO 'Meddle' is their greatest non-commercial album,and I s'pose Dark side of the Moon would have to be their 1st,and best effort at Pop/commercial music.
I'm also an admirer of poor old Syd's solo stuff,but I respect anyone elses favourites.

[[B][O][T]]

The Wall is their greatest album!

[4play]

the best album has to be dark side of the moon followed up by wish you were here

nirvana were a great band but pink floyd were in a league of there own for decades. :D

["The Avatar Man"]

I only like one song from them but I don't know what the name is.
could you pinkfloydans :P help me out?
I can't understand what it says but it sounds like children chanting something and it sends chills down my spine everytime I hear it.
anyone know what song that is?

[4play]

probably another brick in the wall. its on the wall.

part 2 is probably what you are after.

[MorbidHamster]

:D WEEEE Pink Floyd. I've been trying to convince my mate that Pink Floyd are one of, if not THE greatest band of all time, He didn't like it until he went and Jammed with a few guys we know, now he loves em.

And Nirvana and Pink Floyd? No comparrison really. Pink Floyd piss em under the table <_<

My Fav Album Is Animals, and Fav Song has to be Shine on u crazy Diamond Pts 1+2

I&#39;m so old lol, I saw the PF Animals tour in Anaheim, California ~June 1977. It was one of the best shows. :P

[marlowe_is_dead]

If Pink Floyd had retired after The Wall, their reputation would have remained intact - however, they went on and my god they&#39;re shit now... RIP the screaming abdabs, RIP.

I am jelous..even though I was not born yet&#33; :P

[Afronaut]

Gotta love it. Pink Floyd has made some really good stuff.
I like &#39;em with Roger Waters or without him.
I like Roger Waters albums too, he always got some great players around him. :)
Nirvana was pretty succesfull in 90&#39;s, remains to see if they are still known in 2010 or so. Not to diss them or anything but to be as big as Pink Floyd is helluva thing to pull out.
Musically speaking PF gives me more that Nirvana, there&#39;s so many details, instruments etc. Thats my opinion, naturally. ;) At the moment my fav is Shine on you crazy diamond.
Pink Floyd has been around just about forever :P , are they still making music ?

Peace:

I am glad that you are a big Pink Floyd fan. Pink Floyd is not making music together but Roger & David are recording solo albums & david alos does sessions with other musicians(currently with Ringo Starr). David Gilmour also released a live DVD.

[FuNkY CaPrIcOrN]

:) I use to hate Pink Floyd...everybody I know growing up would play their shit and just got burnt out on it.

But am starting to get back into them again. :)

[marine_aart]

[fallenknight308]

FULLY&#33;&#33; And my favorite song is: "Comfortably numb"
And THE WALL is, is, well you&#39;ve seen it&#33; :lol:

[Jayhawk]

like his music but did not follow him as much as i should have.

[Philupnorth]

Im a Pink Floyd fan as well, seen them at earls court and had the time of my life. Seen a coulpe of take off bands and they were good but nothing could match the real deal live (wish they would tour again) stoll got the video of the concert. Fave album has to be dark side of the moon & wish you were here. Cant decide which is the best but both are best heard through top quality headphones with the volume turned right up while stoned, the wall and medal came close but not enough

[ToddM]

Pink Floyd - Definitely&#33;


I&#39;m in the process of getting even MORE floyd&#33; This collection called "a tree full of secrets" -- several volumes of rare floyd&nbsp;

I have a ton of their stuff, and I too am trying to get that incredible collection - "A Tree Full of Secrets" It&#39;s an 18 Cd Set - Yes - 18 &#33;&#33;&#33; I have much of what is on the set, but it would be nice to have the actual set.... I have 3 of the 18 discs thus far - only 15 to go&#33;&#33;

If you are untested in reading about the Full Set, have a look here: Pink Floyd: A Tree Full of Secrets (http://www.winntia.com/html/boxes/pf-atfos.htm)

If it wasn&#39;t for the likes of pink floyd etc there probably not be the range of modern music that there is.

Example:- Flaming Lips biggest influence is pink floyd.

New 5.1 dark side is awesome.

Roger Waters was ace live in Manchester last year.

Echoes, &#39;nuff said

[AlanPartridge]

Pink Floyd&#39;s (and particularly Syd Barrett&#39;s) music was and is some of the most influential music that has shaped the rock music we hear now. Barrett&#39;s insistence on playing either two minute songs about gnomes or 14 minute improvisational pieces on stage was not perhaps new (jazz bands jammed interminably live), but it stretched the boundaries of rock music before Sgt Pepper, Jimi Hendrix or The Doors came along. Unfortunately for Syd he couldn&#39;t handle fame and the resultant mental problems and subsequent reclusiveness were tragic.
However, his influence on the rest of the band and the way they evolved after his replacement has now become a part of continuing rock history, and like them or not, you have to wonder what Led Zeppelin or Sonic Youth or Queens Of The Stone Age would have been without it.
Syd&#39;s story is a sad one, and listening to &#39;Shine on you crazy diamond&#39; (written about him) is heartbreaking, but what a legacy he has left&#33;
...and in true style, it doesn&#39;t interest him.
