bare Wrote:I forgot to mention that Pink Floyd is overrated lol. Overrated because people overrate them, not because they're bad. I guess it's not completely off topic since we're talking about a website for a band that doesn't play as much as one note anymore.
Beethoven and Mozart aren't playing notes any more either - does it mean we don't appreciate their music? And there are a number of albums that are good without (or by) Roger Waters. Radio KAOS, Amused to Death, Ca Ira, About Face, Broken China & The Division Bell. By the way Trace you have it right - WYWH is the best one. I'm not a fan of The Wall but I have to admit as a piece of rock theatre it's phenomenal, but it's not something I would play often. By the way, there's a very interesting article in the latest Sound On Sound magazine about the technicalities of staging The Wall. It's expected to gross 200 million by the end of the tour. Not bad for a disgruntled pensioner! Which leads me back to this first point. It would seem that they are still playing notes after all! And the release of the new DSOTM Immersion/Discovery sets are going to push this album into the realm of 1000 weeks on the billboard charts. Please show me one other band in the world that has done that. When it comes to music there is one yardstick used to determine whether an album or work is really good or not and that is the test of time. Beyonce and Co. have an awful lot to learn........
