Meddle is such an amazing album. The Wall will always be my favorite Floyd album, though. Dark Side is overrated, though it's great. Most of Syd's stuff is fun (come on, dont try to tell me you dont LOVE Bike), but its nothing super-special.

Oh, and The Final Cut is realy underrated. Not Now John is one of my favorite Floyd songs, and the whole album is brilliantly written... even if the, er, music isn't PF's best.

Thanks for posting this. Since I am 51 yo, I just gave up on Floyd after The Wall. I'll take another look at The Final Cut.

Since many consider Dark Side to be the best Rock album of all time, it's natural that some consider it overrated. But even so, Dark Side is the best Rock album of all time.

If it wasn't, nobody would have done this. Seriously though. Rock is so bound up in our emotions that picking a best is really based on timing. But even so, Dark Side is the best Rock album of all time.

Gee, thanks. Now I have to buy that album. Rather true to the original, yet interestingly reggae flavored. I particularly enjoyed the rooster crowing added to the intro of "Time".
