Pretty sure Ummagumma wasn't by The Band...

It's crazy to me that someone would pick Ummagumma considering that it has an incredible live portion and the fact that Floyd released Wish You Were Here, Momentary Lapse of Reason, Division Bell, and The Endless River.

Wish You Were Here is in their top 5 for sure.

Led Zeppelin: In Through the Out Door. Plant and Jones' album mostly still Page and Bonham were so out of it by then. Still plenty of great stuff on it though.

Wish you were here? You out of your mind? Endless River is the only correct answer to this.

I love In through the out door but I guess I'm in the minority on that one. I would go with CODA being the worst although to be fair, still a great album.

Exo

Tom Waits.

Sorry Tom. Alice just isn't anywhere near the rest of your work. It's really the only album that I sometimes find hard to finish or not put on something else.

I don't consider CODA an official album though. It was only released (3 years after Bonham's death) to fulfill contractual obligations and it contains songs that the band had discarded years earlier.

For Waits I would say Nighthawks at the Diner tbh. It's a good album but I feel like it lacks the magic of albums like Closing Time and the zaniness of the bulk of his other material.

I just don't like it, too much of it is very boring. It's mainly Shine On that I'm not huge on, but the other three tracks sound like they could be filler or b side tracks on something way better, which I know Floyd is capable of. There's also the fact that the live half of Ummagumma outweighs the more out there type of stuff on the studio lp.

WYWH is not in my top 5 but still way above any post Roger Waters Floyd. I find Atom Heart mother tough to get into from the Waters era.

Justthefacts

I enjoy Atom Heart Mother a lot in fact. Wish You Were Here Though, favorite Floyd record.
