Money is boring as hell and the album is far too polished and lacks spontaneity, the only album to change this pattern was Animals and regardless of it being my favourite album, it has a freedom and energy sadly lacking from a band that thrived on impulse in previous years.
I much prefer Obscured by Clouds from '72 that was recorded in just a couple of weeks. Far more organic to listen to.
