Top 5 Floyd cds,
1.WYWH
2.DSOTM
3.Meddle
4.Animals
5.The Wall
Kashmir - the only CSNY cd I have is So Far, it's a compilation album, but it's great. If your into them, you oughta check out The Hollies. It was Graham Nash's band before CSN.

Yeah I need more by the hollies, I only have long cool woman in a black dress, which i love. the guitar intro is awesome, and they kind of remind me of creedence, the vocals anyways. Yeah CSN is awesome, they have alot of great songs, woodstock is one of my favorites, love the lyrics. Teach your children and carry on i am both fond of as well. As far as the floyd goes, dark side is my favorite album, but i have listened to it so many times that it has lost some of the magic it had when i first discovered it. Wish you were here is my second favorite, as meddle is my third. I think that atom heart mother is above animals for me, as is piper at the gates of dawn, just becuase it had the best barrett tracks imo. I love the sound of floyd back when they released their 1st album, its so much different than when waters joined the band. I love interstellar overdrive, astronomy domine, and lucifer sam very much. Im not quite sure what to think of bike

The floyd is my favorite prog. band by far though, and I like every album they have released very much. Even division bell is a great album. Its neat to see a band stick around for such a long time, 30 years in their case, and still release great albums from beginning to end. I would die to see them perform one last concert here in the states, but unfortunately waters and gilmour differ too much nowadays. Is waters coming out with a new album or was that just rumor?
