Did we already discuss this?

I'm surprised you rate TMWSTW this high. I'm shocked Diamond Dogs didn't make your Top 10.

If I had to pick one it would be Scary Monsters but Lodger is close and really they are all good up to that point.

Wish You Were Here is Floyd's best album.

Shine on You Crazy Diamond (I-V) is a beautiful arrangement that ends with a descent into madness. Then you are dealt a maddening blow with welcome to the machine and have a cigar; two songs that feel like a bad acid trip. A moment of clarity with the title track and then the refrain.

Genius...

I have a varied view on that subject. As a younger teenager, I was only exposed to the PF on the radio and was, well, meh about the whole thing.
And then I discovered the Syd Barrett records. WOW...totally different and completely **** up. It then took me even longer to delve in to the post-Syd/pre-DSOTM era.

This song was the real revelation for me:

Gaucho will appreciate that buying this (as a b-side) led me to the Syd Barrett era....

I had the worst mushroom trip ever while dark side of the moon played on repeat. That was 11years ago and I still can't listen to that album.

Mushrooms are the key to understanding 60s psychedelic poster art (ie it wasn't about LSD). Having said that, NEVER AGAIN for this fellow.

Maybe, but apparently LSD does make you a billionaire:

If one were to search for "Pink Floyd with Syd Barrett - London 66 - 67 ( Full Rare Version )", they could find some NSFW type of material, which is really quite amazing.
