a-hard-days-night-ringo-8Yes!  I love that record!  There are some really good, mellow tracks from that era of Floyd, like Fat Old Sun, A Pillow Of Winds, and San Tropez.

Those are good ones; I quite like Meddle too. 

 I really wish they stuck with that sorta post-psychedelic, chilled-out sound for longer than they did, but alas, Dark Side Of The Moon had to be made.  

Alas… what a pity they had to make the best album they ever made (in my opinion)… a-hard-days-night-george-10 

All Floyd is good Floyd, to my mind, except for Ummagumma.* a-hard-days-night-paul-10

*Edit: And A Momentary Lapse Of Reason, apparently. a-hard-days-night-paul-3

@Beatlebug 

I dunno, I kinda dig parts of Ummagumma.  But then again, I have a higher tolerance for Avant-Garde than most folks.  That live disc is pretty good though.

As for their best album, Dark Side is a contender, but Animals is my favorite.

Soft Parade is over now, so I put on Close To The Edge by Yes

Now Obscured By Clouds. I’ve only heard it once and that’s never enough to properly absorb a Floyd album (or any album, for that matter). 

Wots... uh the deal with this cover?Image Enlarger

Next, if I’m not Floyded out yet, I’ll probably do A Momentary Lapse Of Reason, and then I’ll have Officially Heard™ their studio albums. a-hard-days-night-john-1

And now the aforementioned album 

a forty-minute lapse of reasonImage Enlarger

I must concur with the album title… so far, it does indeed seem a momentary lapse of reason on Dave’s part… a-hard-days-night-paul-10

ahdn_paul_06That’s funny SG ahdn_george_08  

If you think that’s funny, you can read More about how much I hated it somewhere on the Pink Floyd Sound forum (but I doubt you’d want to, as it’s a very negative post). I’m usually quite positive about things, especially albums by my favourite bands, but this one really turned me off. In my opinion, the album was a load of rubbish and a complete waste of ‘Time’, which I wouldn’t have listened to past the third track if I weren’t such a massive fan. a-hard-days-night-ringo-13 

Now listening to some more rubbish– Atom Heart Mother — but at least it’s rubbish that I love. a-hard-days-night-paul-10

Tell you the truth I’ve never made it through MLOR even once. What do you think, maybe Roger was running the show all along?

 

*Looks like a fun forum. I’m gonna give it a read through.
