What I'm saying is, you're in the majority on this forum.
I'm just one of the few here that thinks otherwise.
I love Barrett era Floyd, but as a songwriter, he's seriously overrated on this forum, I have Madcap Laughs and it's good. But I don't think Barrett comes close to being the songwriting genius a lot of people here make him out to be. I certainly consider Waters and Gilmour better songwriters.
IMO 1971-79 is the their highpoint. I know it's also the height of their commercial sucess, but that's not what I mean, DSOTM is still my favorite album of theirs, followed by WYWH and Meddle, and the very underrated Obscured by Clouds.
