Personally I love Dark Side of the Moon and the first few times I hear people say Animals or Meddle was better I excitedly went to listen to them. For my tastes I struggle to comprehend how anyone could prefer either of those albums to DSotM. I wouldn't even rate them as Floyd's 2nd or 3rd best albums Wish You Were Here is the best Floyd album because it has Wish You Were Here on it, which is the greatest song of all time, ever - this is the hill I chose to die on so don't @ me 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would say it's my 2nd favourite Floyd album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted May 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2021 Is it a deep cut? I know more people like things like Shine On You Crazy Diamond, but it's not really an obscurity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quark Posted May 7, 2021 Report Share Posted May 7, 2021 All the Chems chat has pushed me to go and listen to No Geography again. It was up there in my estimations anyway when it came out so this is more of a reminder than a change of heart, but bloody hell it's great.

balti-pie Posted May 7, 2021 Report Share Posted May 7, 2021 dunno if its a controversial music opinion, it seems to be absolute 101 to me, but considering the last page or two: Pink Floyd are irredeemably w*nky student cod-psych drug nonsense.
