Also don't forget their nr. 1 tribute to Barrett, the many parted "Shine on you Crazy Diamond" .. here recorded from Pulse which I thought was a great album/tour. :)



Delicious song, that one.

Apart from the usual suspects (dogs is my favourite by far), I feel this track available on Relics deserves more love. Fantastic track and one of Rick Wright's best.

I totally agree. That song is one of the main reasons I consider Wright to be the most underrated member of the band. Although it should also be said that one of the best things about the song is Mason's drumming.

I agree, he only provided a few tracks but gems one and all. This is fantastic too. I love his piano playing, so simple and elegant.

Aw hell yeah, another fantastic song! And once again excellent intertwining of the keys and drums. There aren't all that many Pink Floyd songs where I particularly pay attention to the drums but when Mason was on he was really on. And Wright of course was fantastic, probably the best musician in the band despite all the attention Gilmour got.

And speaking of kind of underrated Floyd songs, here's one of my personal favorites:

I adore the whole album. Obscured by clouds is a phenomenal album. It's got me in a Floyd mood and Echoes is getting a blast right now.

Echoes! By a country mile for me... I love that track!

i really like echoes and shine on you crazy diamond.
but there are way too many to be the best.

Summer 68 is the best Rick Wright song by far IMO. As for the Floyd as a whole their best accomplishment I would have to say is Echoes, especially the early live versions.

See Emily Play for me, it's psychedelia mixed in with pop. What's not to love? Probably Barret's best penned song, for me anyway. As for underrated songs Julia Dream is a hushed acoustic that I can never get enough of. I really wish they made more like it.
