Shouldn't it be Saucerful vs The Division Bell? I'll vote for their wonderful second album either way.

It seems that "The Endless River" is not being considered in this competition.
Of the competing two here I'm going for "A Momentary Lapse of Reason". Blame it on a momentary lapse of reason. Now this discography will get a lot more intersting as we get closer to the middle.

I would've voted for The Division Bell here, seeing as that's the second-to-last Pink Floyd album.

it's funny how AMLOR which is usually mocked and hated, gets so many votes here.
I don't get it.

well, I like a few songs on it, but it is one of PF's weakest efforts for many people. Its production, very 80s, its too poppy for some, no Waters obviously (no Wright either because he didn't participate in the songwriting).

Ok, I get that these are all reasons for it to not be considered amongst Pink Floyds best works. But mocked and hated? I wonder how it would be considered without the Pink Floyd name attached. If it was released as a David Gilmour solo album for instance (which for all intents and purposes it is).

Kind of like Animals / The Wall / The Final Cut are (for all intents and purposes) Roger Waters solo albums?

Hi,
I would think/suggest that ASOS is more valuable and important as it showed a band that was onto something ... which they developed further in the next couple of years while allowing for DG to get settled, which you can see in the film they did in the Pompeii arena.

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Well, "The Final Cut" for sure, which is also considered by most to be a lesser work. The other two have vital contrubutions from Gilmour, (particularly his guitar work) although "The Wall" could well be considered a very personal Waters autobiographical statement.

I think, it would be good to see the years of releasing of all the albums to be voted on. Edited by David_D - December 17 2021 at 12:44 |

quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond

you've got to learn to quote people properly, i never wrote what it says above there. Animals is not a Waters solo album, maybe the concept, but musically Gilmour contributed to Dogs and Wright contributed to Sheep, although weirdly he's not credited. Both Gilmour and Ezrin were involved with The Wall and then Michel Kamen with The Final Cut and Pros & Cons. Waters needs great musicians to put his ideas to music.
