I am partial to Animals today! Great acoustic music happening on that album!

Being a Floyd nut I like different albums for different reasons.
Musically - Wish You Were Here followed by the Division Bell
Conceptually - The Wall and The Final Cut (I actually prefer the overall feel of The Final Cut, especially the orchestration, but The Wall has some real classics - Comfortably Numb & Hey You)
For the experimental side of things - probably Meddle, Animals & More
For songwriting & lyrics - Dark Side of the Moon
For nostalgia - Obscured by Clouds & Ummagumma
For a more New Age feel - A Momentary Lapse of Reason - Love that intro to the album, some great instrumental passages and The Turning Away is a classic (magnificent guitar solo at the end)
But if I could only choose one - and I can't really - it would have to be Wish You Were Here. A unique album in my opinion, never to be repeated.
Their live albums Pulse & The Delicate Sound of Thunder are OK but nothing to write home about.
Pulse DVD is spectacular.
I do not really like any of the early albums (Piper, Saucerful etc)
As far as the solo albums are concerned
David Gilmour - About Face
Roger Waters - Radio Kaos & Amused to Death
Richard Wright - Wet Dream and Broken China
Of the solo albums Broken China is by far the most innovative
Albums to avoid - Music from the Body by Roger Waters and Ron Geesin.
Fictitious Sports by Nick Mason
Mediocre albums
On an Island by David Gilmour
The Pros & Cons of Hitchhiking by Roger Waters
I do not like any of Syd Barrett's material - Floyd or solo.

I have to say Dark Side of the Moon for me.

I would say Dark side of the moon too, I love to play it so much that sometimes when I'm not at home, I use to play virtual drums online, and Money is my favourite song to play!

As EvilB so correctly states........http://youtu.be/9zACEJdFOpA
I am waiting for the next band that comes up with this kind of creative composition.
