Let's see, favorites include Atom Heart Mother, Great Gig in the Sky, Us and Them, Dogs, Careful With That Axe Eugene, and Echoes, but I'd have to say Shine On, in all its enitriety, is their most complete and best work overall.

Sheep is my favourite Floyd track, but Echoes and Shine On are excellent.

I love the introduction to Sheep, soft bleating and Rick Wrights' gentle electric piano (?)...then Waters'  bass starts up, quietly at first, hinting at the menace to come like rumbling thunder ...I love the theatre in that track, although "The Lords Prayer" is a little silly! Ends with one of Gilmour's best riffs.

Think I'm going to play it in the car tonight!

I voted Echoes!!!!  If Atom Heart Mother was on the list I would have had a hard time choosing.

"Point me in the sky"?  I think that's the name of the song, at least it's sung in the verse. I heard it from a collection of their BBC radio sessions. Wonderful track!

"Point me at the sky", actually. A real gem, really. I found it on the "Early Singles" CD that came with the "Shine On" boxset. It really is a song to discover, if you haven't heard it yet.

Wish You Were Here just for the memories it brings up. (and it is god damn good too)

Then I really like Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Money, High Hopes, Hey You, Comfortably Numb and well.. Most songs actually. Even though there are some that are outstandning when it comes to masterpieces...
