sailor86 Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) There are tons of good Floyd songs, but here is one of my favorites: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=jHi46A9A5_w Who puts on a better show?

Swede Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Led Zeppelin! Zep and Floyd were great live acts, but I think neither of them are the best that ever was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailor86 Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 Zep and Floyd were great live acts, but I think neither of them are the best that ever was. Hard to equate. Two different animals. The "who put on a better show" was rhetorical. I would go to see either band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Page-ist Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) Floyd is bit more psychedelic(spelling?)I guess, but it is my opinion that Led Zeppelin is the best ever in concert. Edited January 18, 2010 by Page-ist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeBron Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Comfortably Numb is their best song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kashmir330 Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Zep and Floyd were great live acts, but I think neither of them are the best that ever was. They're my two favorite live bands along with the Grateful Dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electrophile Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 It's impossible to choose the best Pink Floyd song. I can't even choose which album I love the most, because so many of them are damn good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigstickbonzo Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Echoes is their most important song. Without it, there wouldn't have been Dark Side of the Moon. As for them live, they were very hit and miss before 1977. I said this in some thread some time ago, once they brought in supporting musicians for live shows, they sounded much better. Unfortunately, that didn't really happen until Pink Floyd had crumbled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, that didn't really happen until Pink Floyd had crumbled. This is not true. I have more boots pre-77 than I do post-77 and a lot of the shows they did before Animals were absolutely effing phenomenal. Every single boot I have from the Wish You Were Here tour in 1975 is spectacular, not just in sound quality, but in the quality of the performance. Maybe you listened to some crap recordings.

Xorq Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 (edited) This is what I've been listening to a lot lately... My link From Obscured by Clouds, imo their most underrated album. Edited January 19, 2010 by Xorq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHD Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Hard to pick a definitive song, but my favourite live song is One Of These Days. It was mindblowing when they did at Earl's Court when I saw them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otto Masson Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 My favourite Pink Floyd song is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dN7rJBVZ56g Couldn't agree more, Swede! It's really such a simple riff, but also the kind of idea nobody comes up with - but Syd did. Pure genius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 My all time favorite Floyd song is "Time". I encompasses all of the great aspects of the group - great lyrics, thematic sound effects and a fantastic guitar solo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I have very selective likes from Floyd. I find some of their stuff pretty boring, but there's a few gems in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
