I think John Lennon could have eventually wrote a good song, but someone shot him, probably couldn't wait any longer. j/k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I own all their albums and have tons of live concerts (I used to collect them). Honestly Pluse is the far better live show "best of" it doesn't suffer from sounding dated, the recording and performance are as good as it gets. The shows from the Delecate Sound of Thunder era, I'd actually argue is more of a stepping stone for the band. It paved the way for the Pulse show, and provided a vehicle for some of the respectable Momentary Sound of Reason (after the completly forgettable "the Final Cut" album and Water's departure). That said, the complete lack of some of the masterpieces like Echoes or Pigs (three different ones) in either show means one has to venture beyond those "best of" to really get a more complete PF experience.

Wibbles Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Seems like a waste of acid to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me music and acid very rarely went together* but on the occasions it did, it was always something unexpected. Trippy music is never any good when tripping - that's what weed is for. * I'd much rather go for a walk and giggle at things, and I find it difficult to sit still when my head is exploding. ?

Walt Collins Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I still find myself inspired when I go back and listen to Dark Side, Animals, Wish You Were Here, Meddle, Atom Heart, Momentary Lapse. I'm not particularly inspired by The Wall though. Same with Final Cut. Too Waters-y, whiney. And some others are just curiosities to me, like the Barrett stuff and really early Gilmour. Ummagumma, Relics, More, Piper, Obscured. Some moments of intensity, but often just... weird. I don't listen to them much any more, but when I do I love them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
