This is inspired by some Pink Floyd discussion we had on the Brain Drain after the Vandy game the other night.
We were discussing best song writing duos and I offered up Waters & Gilmour, not as number 1 but just somewhere on list.
@Jay G. Tate commented he liked post Waters Pink Floyd better, which is wild to me.
Now, “High Hopes” is one of my favorite Floyd songs of all time and it of course is on “Division Bell” post Waters. Fantastic song here:
But I have long held the opinion that the run of studio albums Pink Floyd put out in the 70s is the best of all time.
I offer a sample of each below and welcome all discussion and opinion.
Dark Side of the Moon, 1973
Wish You Were Here, 1975
Animals, 1977
The Wall, 1979
If memory serves (probably doesn’t), Dark Side was closer to a full band collaboration but Waters & Gilmour main writers, Wish You Were Here was pretty even split of Waters & Gilmour, Animals was same too but a little more Waters and The Wall was pretty much Waters.
