You can search through RUclips high and low and never find a band with more talent than Pink Floyd!! I don't think their musical talent could ever be superseded and living proof of it is ever since Pink Floyd music has slowly progressed backwards. And even though I respect some rap music. It's about as primitive as it can get. Where is once again Pink Floyd. The Pinnacle
That George Orwell was so impressed by this album that he wrote an allegorical novel based on it, really tells you how important Pink Floyd's music really is.
Um...... Animal Farm was written in 1945. This album came out in 1977. A great book, a fantastic album, but Orwell was not inspired to write because of this album.
When I was a boy, my parents hated it when I played Pink Floyd at full volume. Now I'm a dad, and my boy hates it when I play Pink Floyd at full volume. The more things change...
My Mom, in her 70s didn't like me playing it loud either. But after I moved out, she got into Pink Floyd and told me she loves them now, and how she used to make me turn it down
Addicted is the right word. I can't stop listening to them, Prince and the sound of rain. It's been like 11 years. They are simply at another level. Mozart and the classical musicians must love them in Heaven. Even animals know how great PF is. It's a trip. Hope there's music in The Afterlife.
I remember being a kid in the 90s and my dad would throw this album on on vinyl after he got home from work at lockheed in yonkers and got my brother and I fed. We'd be playing on the family pc and hed be chilling with a martini listening to this album and i remember wanting to hang with him just vibing but knowing he just wanted to be alone for an hour or so to unwind from a hard day so Id wait until it was over. Its always been a magical chill album for me since
Bitter pill to swallow: As an Aerospace dad myself...I'd love it if my kids sat down & listened to my wind down tunes...I get it though, I never would've gotten between my dad & his thing. That's where we make our mistakes, my friend.;)
A lot of people don't understand but this is one of the greatest anti-political songs written in its time the entire album is an absolute masterpiece and the fact that every song is over 10 minutes beautiful music complete success thank you Roger Waters
I've been listening to the Floyd since I heard their psychedelic sounds in 1968. Ya know I have yet to hear anything from these guys that I haven't liked...everything is great 54 years and still going.
My teenage uncles hooked me up to their stereo and big ol headphones and introduced me to The Wall when I was 10. Around 1980. I turned my daughter onto it and she absolutely devoured it. She had to know everything about it. So I gave her the movie too. I’ll be going to Florida soon. It’s about time to turn a couple of grandchildren onto it. I love it. So has everyone I’ve turned onto it.

@@bedrockcastle777Animals is a concept album based on Animal Farm by George Orwell. Give it a read, it is a terrifying novel given how easy it could become a reality.
During hard times or bad times, I can always count on the Floyd to lift my spirits. Whether it's Sid's fabulous stuff or Echoes, Dark Side, Animals or the Wall, and everything in between, their music makes things a little bit better. Music is a source of inspiration and happiness to many.
I've said this elsewhere but I wonder how many Americans think _"Hey you, Whitehouse"_ is about the American Whitehouse. It's actually about Mary Whitehouse, a TV clean-up campaigner in the UK who was notorious for keeping nudity and bad language out of British media.

Ahhhh Pigs. Who doesn't love their eardrums surrounded by Pink Floyd Pigs. It's hard to pinpoint my favorite because I honestly think that they're all my favorite lol. Being 58yrs old I've heard them all of my life and they never ever get old. When I croak I want Goodbye Blue Sky to play and as I'm dropped into my hole I want to go out with Comfortably Numb. 😊✌💯
A great song on a fantastic album from a legendary band. I'm so glad I grew up listening to classics like Pink Floyd and so many other great band's from the 60's and 70's
Used to skip school so I could listen to this album. Rainy days with a joint were the best. Today it's raining, no joint, but just as good as it was, if not better now. Timeless
Back in the day 4 decades ago I use to listen to Pink Floyd when I was smoking Angel Dust, and it would put me in another world it was awesome. Now I'm Clean and Sober, and when I listen to it now it still puts me in another world. Pink Floyd will always Rock. I'm 62 years young and I will never understand what people are seeing in some of the music that is out there. Old school is the best time. So all you young timers keep on Rocking.✌️God Bless you all.
What was PCP like? I've tried every drug under the Sun at one time or another... except for Angel Dust. You couldn't get it in the UK for some reason. So I was always curious as to the effects. I know it's hallucinogenic to some extent, and very speedy too. Sounds like a mixture of acid and crystal meth, but I'm sure there must be more to it than that our else folk would just have done those two.
@@terrypussypower Hello there terrypussypower. To be honest with you it was one of my best highs ever, and I also done every drug from A to Z. I done Angel Dust for about 3 years and I was Bless that I'm still able to be a normal person, I know some of the people that I use to party with it screw them up in the brain, it's sad. But even though it was 1 of my best highs I still had some bad Trip's. So my suggestion is not to take that chance because one high can jack you up. But now my best highs is with are Lord Jesus Christ.
I've seen Pink Floyd twice while flying on multiple hits of LSD (late 80's.) And of course would otherwise listen to this and Zeppelin, Doors, etc. while smoking good Colombian Gold. Now, I'm 25 years clean and I find when listening to the music it's every bit as transcendental as it was back then. I didn't think it would rock without the chemicals, but it does; maybe more so.
Gilmour may have grooved out on 'Shine on', revved up the delay on 'Time' and unleashed his blues chops on 'Money' but never did he rock out as much as at the end of this tune...
Jonatan Olsén yes, In this song Roger plays the rhythm guitar and David the lead guitar and bass. He also played the bass on and some other Pink Floyd songs like Hey You, for example.
Still one of my fave Floyd songs. Roger Waters came into his own as a songwriter here, and the band - though disintegrating at this point - were on FIRE.
I said this elsewhere but I wonder how many Americans thought _"Hey you, Whitehouse"_ was referring to the American Whitehouse. It's actually referring to Mary Whitehouse, a television clean-up campaigner famous in Britain years ago for trying to keep swearing and nudity off screens.
@@stevenavakian5250 She really was a self-righteous, squeaky-clean housewife who tried to keep swearing and nudity out of the media. And our feelings off the street.
There is no "best" guitarist for this time. Page, Beck, Gilmour, Howe, WHATEVER!. The music of the "70's is what it is. Take it from someone that dropped a needle on all these tunes. Just enjoy it. ROCK ON!
Live in the now. Take control of your culture and cultural experience. You don't need to be a passive consumer, pushed along by the flow of social normality. You can be a creator.
Yeah in my opinion David Gilmour is one of the best ever and my personal favorite guitarist. Nobody plays like him, his screaming guitar solos are epic. Totally unique sound. This solo and his solo on Time are just epic times 10.
He's great but not the best. Maybe top 10-15 on a good day. Floyd was Roger Waters, and very early on, Syd Barrett. Music is so subjective, though. It's whatever moves a person. Floyd were great. I was just never a super fan
@@TonyEnglandUK I did admit that it's subjective, but it's not a far fetched statement at all. He's great but probably not top 10. Certainly not the best, but it's whatever inspires you as a person. He's not better than Page. Clapton, Beck(rip). Peter Green and a handful of others. Just depends on what you like
You're posting opinions as if they were facts. In my opinion, he's leagues ahead of Peter Green. It's an opinion, not a fact. The original comment just said _"One of the best"_ just enjoy the music whoever's providing it..
I remember in my teens, I would listen to this whole album. Who thought headphones could transport you to another world? Full volume, 2-3am. Insomnia. Turn on my light (it was a blue light) sit there with my eyes closed. Smoke a bowl, and another. Those times are gone. Life doesn't hit me the same anymore, nor does music. I miss those days.
yep, I remember even getting really involved into what i was listening without any drugs very often, the music was like a drug itself, you could just listen, that was the process itself
I remember listening to this on vinyl with my headsets on full blast and just transcending to planet pink. What's up with these modern day headsets? I bought what was suppose to be the best out there and I can't get any volume out of them. I like my music loud but can't seem to find any modern equipment that delivers. I miss my Yamaha 275 watt amp with my cerwin vegan v-15s
@@yankeedolphin6286 Out of interest, which ones did you buy? I bought Sony XM4s and they're really incredible and the clarity is amazing especially with 360-degree sound and the noise cancelling. The problem, for me, is that they're not very loud. I may have damaged my hearing from going to clubs, gigs and concerts over the years because my son says they hurt his ears. I think the headphones he uses for his Playstation are louder. The noise cancelling is amazing and it does get really immersive... but when you want to crank it up and realise it's already at full volume, it can be quite disappointing. When it is too loud it gets hard to distinguish different instruments because they all blend together (which I hate), but I wish they had more kick to them.
"Music doesn't hit the same anymore." I use to run lights for a band...I kinda got burned out on some types...I'm happy to say that now I'm 57 and it has become important in my life again...plus I've found a whole new appreciation for bands and genres I use to not even give a thought to. Find something new to you, different....if music was ever that important to you...those feelings are still there, you just gotta go looking for them again.
I realize most all of you have grown up and are proud to “Just Say No To Drugs”...I’ve never been a quitter and this boomer still loves to burn a doobie while listening to Floyd even at 57 yrs old !!
Fuuuuuuck this is some seriously good stuff. I play pink floyd while I write my papers in grad school, I'm telling you, it taps into some alternate brain space and brilliance flows right out. Its medicine as far as I'm concerned
This was my 1st Album I purchased when I was 12 years old on Januray 23rd 1977. My best friends brother had just bought the album the night before and I we lestened to the whole album and I was hooked. Still listening 44 years later.
Bought this album in January, 1977...43 years ago ...saw the Animals tour in June 1977 at the Spectrum, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. That show was quite the spectacle, inflated figurines, the airplane crashing, the dry ice effects, the videos, and...true Quadrophonic sounds...Pa speakers on every corner of the arena!
Just excellent. Cool funk, smooth vibes, biting lyrics. Genius song for all the members. They hit it out of the park here. It must have been tough putting out much after this. Yet they did. They sure did!!
I love Pink Floyd they are my religion. DSOTM my bible, but you know I gotta say Travis Scott Highest in the Room has some pretty cool sounding Back beats and noise that are definitely Floydian. Towards the end listen & check it out. You gotta keep that mind open and aware. Stay Woke!
I started listening to Pink Floyd when I was about 12 now I'm 55 when a band is this good the music never gets old !! I n HIGH School in between classes I would go to my car and get stoned lol. The funny thing was I was a jock I played Football and Wrestling I was also a two time State Champ at 195 lbs !! What I wouldn't give to have those days back !!! Hatboro Horsham P.A. CLASS OF 1981....
Ken Bray I’m turning 50 this December n I started at the age of 16-17 backhome in India n I’m still going on n gonna introduce to my high school attending son.
Pink Floyd. What a time I had. Was introduced at the age of 20 and have never looked back. Tripped my brains out in Germany to some of the finest best music of that decade. Thanks to Pink Floyd I made it to the ripe old age of 72 and I'm still craving this and more. These days now leave me more open to other types of music but always back to the best first.
animals was the first concert of my life in milwaukee........division bell was the first concert i built as a stage hand.......two high points of my life...thank you pink floyd
Absolute geniuses. Floyd was ahead of the game in every aspect of music. No one then used the keyboards to create gems such as this one. No one then or no one now had lyrics that rein true to this day. MOTHER is a prime example. Roger asked Mother if he should trust the Government?? His remarks we exactly "NO FUCKING WAY" as he was performing the wall live in Chicago back in 2012. He said in 1979 as well as In 2012, that if u give our government and our police to much power we r on a very Slippery slope. The bastards r slowly taking every bit of rights we have. Pink Floyd is a class all by themselves. The legacy will go on forever.
I jam this tune at work loud then one day this old plumber comes out of the shop and says who in the F$&k is this ! It’s Pink Floyd bro ! He said man she rocks ! I cranked it up full blast WOW LOL !!!
When I took family leave to take care of my new grandson while my daughter finished her schooling. This is what this little guy listened to for his first year. Loud, and strong, he slept right through it. Well he's a senior in high school now, and guess whats on his ipad? I grew a Floydian.
The love of my life and I would listen to this album all the time... I miss You Jose ❤❤ R.I.P I continue to listen to this for us.. Wish you were here ! 💙
Proof of the true genius of this song. You have unlimited resources, now create a song equal to or better than this. I wouldn't even know where to begin. At the time there was nothing similar to even copy from. True musical genius, God given talent, and fate bringing together all that participated in its creation. There have been many good performers since, but few if any are their equal.
Marco Antoine Barbery The problem was that the band as individuals were never very happy with it. Gilmour, Mason and Wright all got less that Roger Waters in the profit take and their biggest regrets were the same: they all felt they should have contributed more. For a lot of Pink Floyd observers, it was becoming increasingly obvious that disharmony was pulling the band apart, a factor which barely saw them complete The Wall. From a lyrical stand point, it’s unique among their albums in that it’s angry. It looks at the people who dominate society and In turn, make it hard for everyone else to just get along. From a musical standpoint, it is so much greater than they ever thought it was, falling neatly between Wish You Were Here and The Wall where they kind of peaked and fell at the same time. In a way this album is almost underdone. It’s certainly underrated and never gets the widespread appreciation of their other albums. In the same way as the French export Cognac and keep Armagnac, one for hard core fans of the band to keep for themselves.
In my humble opinion, The Wall, Wish you Were Here, Dark Side recieved all the plaudits but this is their outstanding album; the concept, the cover, the music . . . the timing of it.
It smashes the mind fuckery of this world and they've dumbed down the populous and want them to remain there, hence this masterpiece remains hidden from the average millennial consumer.

Hey I'm in my in my early 60s and Pink Floyd will live on the time that's all great they have been thank you Pink Floyd for the good times and memories with sinceri
This is the kind of great music that you can lose track of earthly problems and be taken to a different part of the universe and forget about life! It's awesome!
Here it is the year 2020 and Pink Floyd has still got what it Takes to do it for me . One of my favorite albums of theirs. Oh what am I saying I Love them all.🎶🎶
It’s no wonder Gen X is the fucking coolest generation ever! Our crib music was next level and by the time we were toddlers we just had it in our blood!
Born in 69 I was a little late for the music I love and with 4 older brothers hand me down music surrounded me. I remember a 45rpm with day tripper on it and another one with pinball wizard. Dark side of the moon was common music where ever we were until I heard it! Pigs 3 different ones I was completely blown away thinking of how could anybody write such great music. I was hooked at 9 years old with the large Floyd poster with the pyramid and pictures of them live, right next to the large Zeppelin and Yes posters that I looked at for hours imagining how awesome it would be. I would let people know my top 3 bands were Zeppelin, Floyd, and can never count out Sabbath. The first and really the only Sabbath. Now close to 45 years later I still try to imagine how it would be. Floyd will always be a big part of me and love them. Got a chance to see them 3times without Roger, but saw Roger with Jeff Beck playing with him. But Floyd took me away and I never came completely back
Clássico inigualável.. de uma época não tão distante, mas um abismo de qualidade em relação ao cenário atual.. eterno Pink Floyd, diferente de tudo e de todos.. Só agradeço!
1981 I bought my brother this 8 track and a wizard bong for Christmas. Me and my friends had to christen them before I wrapped them. Popped the tape in my old Chevelle and slowly cruised the back roads with the smoke screen going. What a glorious time it was.
This whole album is so relevant today recommend listen to full album in order and pay attention to lyrics ! This is for young people listening for the first time . It may save you but I doubt it you can’t focus on anything but what’s in your hand this second . I think our world is about to go off the cliff !!!!!

Was listening at 15 years and still listening at 58.
Yaaa Me too bro!
A great song on a fantastic album from a legendary band. I'm so glad I grew up listening to classics like Pink Floyd and so many other great band's from the 60's and 70's
Used to skip school so I could listen to this album. Rainy days with a joint were the best. Today it's raining, no joint, but just as good as it was, if not better now. Timeless
Back in the day 4 decades ago I use to listen to Pink Floyd when I was smoking Angel Dust, and it would put me in another world it was awesome. Now I'm Clean and Sober, and when I listen to it now it still puts me in another world. Pink Floyd will always Rock. I'm 62 years young and I will never understand what people are seeing in some of the music that is out there. Old school is the best time. So all you young timers keep on Rocking.✌️God Bless you all.
What was PCP like? I've tried every drug under the Sun at one time or another... except for Angel Dust. You couldn't get it in the UK for some reason. So I was always curious as to the effects. I know it's hallucinogenic to some extent, and very speedy too.
Sounds like a mixture of acid and crystal meth, but I'm sure there must be more to it than that our else folk would just have done those two.
@@terrypussypower Hello there terrypussypower. To be honest with you it was one of my best highs ever, and I also done every drug from A to Z. I done Angel Dust for about 3 years and I was Bless that I'm still able to be a normal person, I know some of the people that I use to party with it screw them up in the brain, it's sad. But even though it was 1 of my best highs I still had some bad Trip's. So my suggestion is not to take that chance because one high can jack you up. But now my best highs is with are Lord Jesus Christ.
I've seen Pink Floyd twice while flying on multiple hits of LSD (late 80's.) And of course would otherwise listen to this and Zeppelin, Doors, etc. while smoking good Colombian Gold. Now, I'm 25 years clean and I find when listening to the music it's every bit as transcendental as it was back then. I didn't think it would rock without the chemicals, but it does; maybe more so.
@@LeFatCobraCongratulation on your sober time Brother. God Bless you always👍.

@@ashman0071 thank you :)
Music WILL NEVER be written this way again.. No matter how good it is!!!
Porcupine Tree is something you might enjoy.
No. Just a pig man yesterday. Not your king no more at least I'm not you may be
Gilmour may have grooved out on 'Shine on', revved up the delay on 'Time' and unleashed his blues chops on 'Money' but never did he rock out as much as at the end of this tune...
I don't care what anyone says, David Gilmour is THE best guitar player on the planet, period.
Nathan Sutton Oh without a doubt.
On both guitar and bass.
Pand Santhi
He plays bass too?
Jonatan Olsén yes, In this song Roger plays the rhythm guitar and David the lead guitar and bass. He also played the bass on and some other Pink Floyd songs like Hey You, for example.
When you haven't listened to this song in a couple of years it sounds like the first time. I forgot how awesome it was.
Dave's bass guitar work on this is epic along with his guitar outro.
true that - Roger was too lazy to lay down the bass lines he wrote so the strory goes
@@ashman0071 Oh, didn't know that. It is great bass!
i'm 60 yrs old now and always and allways will love this song....
The same age as U. Pink Floyd is with me since i whas 16 , never ending story

Still one of my fave Floyd songs. Roger Waters came into his own as a songwriter here, and the band - though disintegrating at this point - were on FIRE.
I said this elsewhere but I wonder how many Americans thought _"Hey you, Whitehouse"_ was referring to the American Whitehouse. It's actually referring to Mary Whitehouse, a television clean-up campaigner famous in Britain years ago for trying to keep swearing and nudity off screens.
@@TonyEnglandUK "Mary you're nearly a treat"
@@TonyEnglandUK didn't know that, thanks for the insight
@@stevenavakian5250 She really was a self-righteous, squeaky-clean housewife who tried to keep swearing and nudity out of the media. And our feelings off the street.
@@TonyEnglandUK Hey, thanks for the update. Now when I sing ' hey you Whitehouse' I can put in in the proper context
Screaming guitar and squealing guitar. Some of Pink Floyd's best rock ever.
There is no "best" guitarist for this time. Page, Beck, Gilmour, Howe, WHATEVER!. The music of the "70's is what it is. Take it from someone that dropped a needle on all these tunes. Just enjoy it. ROCK ON!
Nope
Amen
60s were newborn, the 80s was mostly commercialised, but the 70s were free.
mad respect for you, wish I existed back then
Live in the now. Take control of your culture and cultural experience. You don't need to be a passive consumer, pushed along by the flow of social normality. You can be a creator.
Yeah in my opinion David Gilmour is one of the best ever and my personal favorite guitarist. Nobody plays like him, his screaming guitar solos are epic. Totally unique sound. This solo and his solo on Time are just epic times 10.
Comfortably Numb, Live in Pompeii, 2016. Watch a balding, grey haired old man give a display of electric guitar virtuosity.
He's great but not the best. Maybe top 10-15 on a good day. Floyd was Roger Waters, and very early on, Syd Barrett. Music is so subjective, though. It's whatever moves a person. Floyd were great. I was just never a super fan
@@ShawnConrad-tw8du lol, what drivel, behave yourself.
@@TonyEnglandUK I did admit that it's subjective, but it's not a far fetched statement at all. He's great but probably not top 10. Certainly not the best, but it's whatever inspires you as a person. He's not better than Page. Clapton, Beck(rip). Peter Green and a handful of others. Just depends on what you like
You're posting opinions as if they were facts. In my opinion, he's leagues ahead of Peter Green. It's an opinion, not a fact. The original comment just said _"One of the best"_ just enjoy the music whoever's providing it..
Quase impossível falar qual a melhor música de Pink Floyd, mas essa é fantástica.😊
That guitar solo takes me to another dimension
Amen.
Are there cookies in that Dimension because if there are no cookies I don't want to go.

Escuchar esta música en la madrugada....unas copas charlando con los amigos , el silencio de la noches...es lo máximo que recuerdos
Un poco de coraza y mas risa
I remember in my teens, I would listen to this whole album. Who thought headphones could transport you to another world? Full volume, 2-3am. Insomnia. Turn on my light (it was a blue light) sit there with my eyes closed. Smoke a bowl, and another. Those times are gone. Life doesn't hit me the same anymore, nor does music. I miss those days.
Same. Although once in awhile it still hits me.
yep, I remember even getting really involved into what i was listening without any drugs very often, the music was like a drug itself, you could just listen, that was the process itself
I remember listening to this on vinyl with my headsets on full blast and just transcending to planet pink. What's up with these modern day headsets? I bought what was suppose to be the best out there and I can't get any volume out of them. I like my music loud but can't seem to find any modern equipment that delivers. I miss my Yamaha 275 watt amp with my cerwin vegan v-15s
@@yankeedolphin6286 Out of interest, which ones did you buy? I bought Sony XM4s and they're really incredible and the clarity is amazing especially with 360-degree sound and the noise cancelling.
The problem, for me, is that they're not very loud. I may have damaged my hearing from going to clubs, gigs and concerts over the years because my son says they hurt his ears. I think the headphones he uses for his Playstation are louder. The noise cancelling is amazing and it does get really immersive... but when you want to crank it up and realise it's already at full volume, it can be quite disappointing.
When it is too loud it gets hard to distinguish different instruments because they all blend together (which I hate), but I wish they had more kick to them.
"Music doesn't hit the same anymore."
I use to run lights for a band...I kinda got burned out on some types...I'm happy to say that now I'm 57 and it has become important in my life again...plus I've found a whole new appreciation for bands and genres I use to not even give a thought to. Find something new to you, different....if music was ever that important to you...those feelings are still there, you just gotta go looking for them again.
This song is a real masterpiece
The final bass line..is one of the greatest of all time...genius
I realize most all of you have grown up and are proud to “Just Say No To Drugs”...I’ve never been a quitter and this boomer still loves to burn a doobie while listening to Floyd even at 57 yrs old !!
But maybe slow down with it, you are only 41 !
🔥🤙
Pot HEAD
Nothing wrong with a casual joint!
76 and still rockin
Fuuuuuuck this is some seriously good stuff. I play pink floyd while I write my papers in grad school, I'm telling you, it taps into some alternate brain space and brilliance flows right out. Its medicine as far as I'm concerned
Medicinal Floyd. That sounds about right.
Embrace ir
This album is definitely epic
This the Dark Side and the Wall is absolutely the Trip le Crown of All Rock 💪
That's the weed talking. We all said the same thing back in the day listening to this. The music has nothing to do with it. Or does it ... hmmmm.
Listened to this first back in college days. Pink Floyd never gets old. exceptional group that I never get enough of.
This was my 1st Album I purchased when I was 12 years old on Januray 23rd 1977. My best friends brother had just bought the album the night before and I we lestened to the whole album and I was hooked. Still listening 44 years later.
Amazing how society breaks down to Pigs, Sheep, and Dogs
Hawks and Doves...
OInk Oink, My good friend.
we truly live in a society
Amazingly disconcerting.. to have to subscribe to such a notion.
George Costanza: we’re living in a society here!!!
Bought this album in January, 1977...43 years ago ...saw the Animals tour in June 1977 at the Spectrum, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. That show was quite the spectacle, inflated figurines, the airplane crashing, the dry ice effects, the videos, and...true Quadrophonic sounds...Pa speakers on every corner of the arena!
I saw them 1995 at Vienna Airport and the show was pretty much as you described. Pure joy for ears and eyes, to say the least!
Damn nice. Saw Rodger waters and Eric Clapton in the 80s on Reg tour in Philadelphia. Man was that a GREAT experience. Love Floyd
Saw it in Dallas 77, they played Animals, Wish You Were Here & DSOM in entirety. Great Show.
Just excellent. Cool funk, smooth vibes, biting lyrics. Genius song for all the members. They hit it out of the park here. It must have been tough putting out much after this. Yet they did. They sure did!!
👍
I am 29 and love to listen this music. I got rid of all the crap they make these days.
"Now THAT is music. Pink Floyd is just different, bro". Said a life long Hip-Hopper after hearing Pink Floyd for the first time.
Alex hefner?
That’s why you shouldn’t limit yourself.
rock on my brudda
I love Pink Floyd they are my religion. DSOTM my bible, but you know I gotta say Travis Scott Highest in the Room has some pretty cool sounding Back beats and noise that are definitely Floydian. Towards the end listen & check it out. You gotta keep that mind open and aware. Stay Woke!
I started listening to Pink Floyd when I was about 12 now I'm 55 when a band is this good the music never gets old !! I n HIGH School in between classes I would go to my car and get stoned lol. The funny thing was I was a jock I played Football and Wrestling I was also a two time State Champ at 195 lbs !! What I wouldn't give to have those days back !!! Hatboro Horsham P.A. CLASS OF 1981....
Ken Bray no fucking way, cheltenham high school class of 82!

Know where your coming from.. St.Vincent - St.Mary Akron Ohio 80’
Have seen Floyd few times and have never disappointed..
Pink Floyd. What a time I had. Was introduced at the age of 20 and have never looked back. Tripped my brains out in Germany to some of the finest best music of that decade. Thanks to Pink Floyd I made it to the ripe old age of 72 and I'm still craving this and more. These days now leave me more open to other types of music but always back to the best first.
animals was the first concert of my life in milwaukee........division bell was the first concert i built as a stage hand.......two high points of my life...thank you pink floyd
Awesome!!!
ANIMALS, my favorite Pink Floyd album.
Yup ! +1
Am 74 love all the great Pink Floyd songs......
That's the way to do it.

Absolute geniuses. Floyd was ahead of the game in every aspect of music. No one then used the keyboards to create gems such as this one. No one then or no one now had lyrics that rein true to this day. MOTHER is a prime example. Roger asked Mother if he should trust the Government?? His remarks we exactly "NO FUCKING WAY" as he was performing the wall live in Chicago back in 2012. He said in 1979 as well as
In 2012, that if u give our government and our police to much power we r on a very
Slippery slope. The bastards r slowly taking every bit of rights we have. Pink Floyd is a class all by themselves. The legacy will go on forever.

BEST GUITAR SOLO OF ALL TIME
All guitarists are equal, but some guitarists are more equal than others.
When I took family leave to take care of my new grandson while my daughter finished her schooling. This is what this little guy listened to for his first year. Loud, and strong, he slept right through it. Well he's a senior in high school now, and guess whats on his ipad? I grew a Floydian.

I'm 61 yrs old now but always wanted to hear thier songs
Proof of the true genius of this song.
You have unlimited resources, now create a song equal to or better than this.
I wouldn't even know where to begin. At the time there was nothing similar to even copy from.
True musical genius, God given talent, and fate bringing together all that participated in its creation.
There have been many good performers since, but few if any are their equal.
One of the most underrated albums of one of the best bands of all time
it's a classic to be re-disco-vered buy a new generation
Floyd die hards don't consider this album underrated. The problem was that the songs were so long that they didn't get much radio time.
This is definitely my favorite Floyd Album. I hope I get to listen to this one more time before I die someday
Marco Antoine Barbery The problem was that the band as individuals were never very happy with it. Gilmour, Mason and Wright all got less that Roger Waters in the profit take and their biggest regrets were the same: they all felt they should have contributed more. For a lot of Pink Floyd observers, it was becoming increasingly obvious that disharmony was pulling the band apart, a factor which barely saw them complete The Wall. From a lyrical stand point, it’s unique among their albums in that it’s angry. It looks at the people who dominate society and In turn, make it hard for everyone else to just get along. From a musical standpoint, it is so much greater than they ever thought it was, falling neatly between Wish You Were Here and The Wall where they kind of peaked and fell at the same time. In a way this album is almost underdone. It’s certainly underrated and never gets the widespread appreciation of their other albums. In the same way as the French export Cognac and keep Armagnac, one for hard core fans of the band to keep for themselves.
Marco Antoine Barbery I listen to it when I was like 9/10
In my humble opinion, The Wall, Wish you Were Here, Dark Side recieved all the plaudits but this is their outstanding album; the concept, the cover, the music . . . the timing of it.
peter brady it’s their very first studio album
110% agreed
Nah, this shit sounds gay as fuck, there's a reason thee other songs are pop
It smashes the mind fuckery of this world and they've dumbed down the populous and want them to remain there, hence this masterpiece remains hidden from the average millennial consumer.
I agree this album is extremely underrated and under played.
Just my humble opinion, but this album was Pink Floyd greatest ever. 🔥😎🔥😎🔥
Unos de los mejores discos de esta gran banda, grande Pink Floyd!!!!
Pink Floyd only becomes more relevant with time. They haven't dated a bit.

It never ends until the dogs lay down by the stone
Save it in your heart. It may live forever there!
Classic timeless beautiful work of art 🎸
Born in 69 I was a little late for the music I love and with 4 older brothers hand me down music surrounded me. I remember a 45rpm with day tripper on it and another one with pinball wizard. Dark side of the moon was common music where ever we were until I heard it! Pigs 3 different ones I was completely blown away thinking of how could anybody write such great music. I was hooked at 9 years old with the large Floyd poster with the pyramid and pictures of them live, right next to the large Zeppelin and Yes posters that I looked at for hours imagining how awesome it would be. I would let people know my top 3 bands were Zeppelin, Floyd, and can never count out Sabbath. The first and really the only Sabbath. Now close to 45 years later I still try to imagine how it would be. Floyd will always be a big part of me and love them. Got a chance to see them 3times without Roger, but saw Roger with Jeff Beck playing with him. But Floyd took me away and I never came completely back
Clássico inigualável.. de uma época não tão distante, mas um abismo de qualidade em relação ao cenário atual.. eterno Pink Floyd, diferente de tudo e de todos.. Só agradeço!
Aí sim, mais um brasileiro que ama Pink Floyd.
1981 I bought my brother this 8 track and a wizard bong for Christmas. Me and my friends had to christen them before I wrapped them. Popped the tape in my old Chevelle and slowly cruised the back roads with the smoke screen going. What a glorious time it was.
When you say smoke screen, are you referring to a vehicle with a broken exhaust system?
That's freaking awesome!!!
