Some of the best David Gilmour work nobody ever talks about.

Great album beginning to end but Dogs is my jam. Damn near perfect song.

I was a huge Darkside of the Moon guy from about 16 years old until I was about 35. My wife kept trying to get me to sit down and listen to the entire The Wall CD. I listened to it on a couple trips down to South Florida. It's now my favorite album by them.

Just a phenomenal piece of work.

Darkside of the Moon is great. But The Wall is just phenomenal.

Where does one procure a wife with this sensibility and discerning taste?

The Wall is extremely hard to digest until you've listened to it multiple times. Extremely hard. Watching the film doesn't hurt, either. It's such a simple concept told in such a bizarre fashion, with the whole neo-Nazi transformation and The Trial at the end. So bizarre. Incredible piece of work when you consider it's a concept album AND a double album, but musically, Dark Side still does it for me. However, The Wall still has Comfortably Numb, which wins all the awards.

I think my one big gripe with The Wall is it features too much Roger Waters on vocals and not enough David Gilmour. Gilmour's singing voice to me is leaps and bounds better than Waters', but Waters is the FAR superior song writer and lyricist. It's a shame they had such a bitter break up, the world probably missed out on some great music.

It hurt my sense of reality when i watched it trippin balls at 17 years old. It was awesome.

Honestly, I completely lucked out.

It's ok, they're British and they talk funny.

I'm a big fan of Wish You Were Here (1975) - a 5 song album. Shine on You Crazy Diamond (Parts I-V), Welcome to the Machine, Have a Cigar, Wish You Were Here, and Shine (Part Two).
But I came across 'Obscured by Clouds' maybe 20 years ago and really fell in love with it. It's the soundtrack for a movie called 'The Valley' (1972). Sandwiched between Meddle (71) and Dark Side (73).

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

Never listened to Obscured By Clouds, maybe I will soon.

Wish You Were Here is a phenomenal album.

Whilst perusing some Scottish/British music I came across one of my favorite songs being done by Mr. Gilmour... good stuff:

David Gilmour's voice is so smooth it makes silk seem like sandpaper.

Meanwhile, here's the song Andrew Lloyd Webber ripped off for the theme to Phantom of the Opera.
