Meddle is imo their best album, and one that doesn't get much credit. One of these Days sounds like it was produced 30 years after it was. Fearless and Echoes are amazing tracks.

One of These Days is one of the best.

Most amazing surprise band I ever saw was Montrose without a doubt. Saw them at Winterland when they were the opening act and they just tore the doors down. Saw them every chance I could until Sammy left the band. Probably 15 times. Then followed both Montrose and Hagar through Montose's Gamma and Sammy's solo career until Sammy joined Van Halen and then stopped seeing him until he brought Ronnie back on his Chickenfoot tours. Was unfortunate Montrose killed himself as there were plans for a Montrose reunion tour with Bill Church and Denny Carmassi.

Winterland......respect!

As for the Floyd, I still believe the Final Cut is one of the most under-appreciated releases of all time. Not their best by a long shot, but too often overlooked.

On Waters’ first tour - Pros & Cons IIRC, I saw him hit the stage with Eric Clapton on guitar and I vaguely recall maybe Phil Collins on drums?

Show was at the Rosemont Horizon, think I was in high school!

I also caught Gilmore live on his first tour, great stuff.

My older brother was crazy into Pink Floyd. I didn't get it until dark Side Of The Moon. I remember when Hole In The Wall came out, Steve Dahl put out a parody song about Gacy called Another Kid In The Crawl. That didn't go over to well. Howard Stern was influenced by Dahl.


That’s like saying K-Mack was influenced by She Mclellan.

I agree with Albert that Dark Side of the Moon is elite. Just no weak links. Blow your mind and do it again. My favorite as well.
