    		 It took me a while to realized just how good this band really is. They are very creative songwriters!

      		 We lost Floyd keyboardist Rick Wright this year which was really sad, he was so integral to their sound and wrote some of the key instrumental parts to Dark Side of the Moon as well as some very underrated songs on the eariler albums.

      Pink Floyd kind of lose me on the post Roger Waters releases but I absolutley love all their stuff from 1965 through to 1983.

      Lucy Leave, Pink Floyd's first recording from 1965 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDOVuDzEHZ8

      Lucifer Sam original mono mix from the first Floyd album Piper at the Gates of Dawn http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROxxBGeYTo4

      Let There be More Light (first track off A Saucerful of Secrets) live on French tv, 1968 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gE4UncSsAI

      Careful with that Axe Eugene live, 1972 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMpGdG27K9o

      Embryo, live 1970. This is a rare Pink Floyd track, it was recorded during the Ummagumma sessions but not used. It later wound up on the early 80's best of Works. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZF5FFNpXms

      Burning Bridges from the very underrated 1972 album Obscured by Clouds

                  		 Oh yes, Echoes, that's one of the Floyd's masterworks. You posted the second half of the track there, most of Roger's riffs are in the first half. Here's the whole over 23 minute long piece;

                  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f88NZ1sxWX0

                  Some trivia about Echoes, the original lyrics had lines like "Planets meeting face to face..." but the group felt like they were being stereotyped as a Spacerock band so they changed the words.

                                		 oh ok. The first record I got of there's, tho I'm 18, was of course Dark Side of the Moon. Which was actually really hard to find.

                                  		 Dogs (Part 1 and Part 2 ) is without a doubt their best song, followed by Wish You Were Here.

                                  Animals is their best album, closely followed by Wish You Were Here.

                                    		 The original Pink Floyd lineup stayed in my family house in Minnesota for a night in I believe '77 (might be off on that). I wasn't born yet.

                                    My grandmother is very close friends with their tour manager's wife or something. They were in town playing a show and they spent the night in our home. The basement was being finished then and that's where people hung out. Cigarettes and 'other materials' from them are mingled still in hollow pillars that were unfinished at the time.

                                    So everytime I visit the house (now my uncle's). I enjoy the thoughts of that. I mean come on... PINK FLOYD slept where I sleep!
