Smurf said:Pink Floyds stage performances are definately to be commended. Today's pop crap bands don't do just on stage. I miss the old days. (not that I was even alive in the old days, let alone old enough to appreciate it. but my opinion still counts right!?)
Kerrie said:I was fortunate to witness one show of theirs in Vancouver BC in 1994. At one time, I was a HUGE Floyd fan. Still am of course. Animals is my most favorite, Meddle is definitely a superb work, haven't heard it in awhile (I used to have it on tape, but since my progression to CD's, haven't bought in yet). One work that very few acknowledge of Floyd is the soundtrack "More". I highly recommend it to those who like pre-Dark Side. Waters and Gilmore made such a balanced team, yet they had a bad falling out. Once they both went solo, their work just sucked (my opinion of course ). Floyd in the 90's was sort of cheesy, although Division Bell had some okay songs.
Coming Back to Life started okay, though it felt like Gilmour was trying a little too hard to be Waters - the first mistake. Then, in the middle, the song just morphed into some kind of vanilla pop track. That really killed it for me...just when it was starting to show promise.fourier jr said:but the division bell was much better, especially marooned & coming back to life.

"Echoes" is a 23-minute long psychedelic rock song by the British band Pink Floyd. It was released in 1971 as a part of their album "Meddle" and has since become one of their most iconic and beloved songs.
Pink Floyd used a combination of innovative recording techniques and experimental instruments to create the timeless sounds in "Echoes." This includes using a Leslie speaker for the guitar, a rotating speaker typically used for organs, and creating tape loops to create the eerie underwater-like sound effects.
The combination of the unique and experimental sounds, the thought-provoking lyrics, and the long instrumental sections make "Echoes" a timeless song. It has stood the test of time and continues to be appreciated by music fans of all ages.
"Echoes" is considered one of Pink Floyd's greatest songs because of its musical complexity, thought-provoking lyrics, and the emotional impact it has on listeners. It also showcases the band's ability to seamlessly blend different genres and experiment with new sounds.
While "Echoes" does not have a specific storyline or concept like some of Pink Floyd's other songs, it does explore themes of time, life, and death. The lyrics and music work together to create a cohesive and thought-provoking piece of music.
