A COLLECTION OF GREAT DANCE SONGS

This album was my first ever introduction to Pink Floyd and I think it should serve as "the beginners guide to PF". That's exactly the purpose of this album. No less; no more.

The songs are their most commercial ones and this does not get into the more complicated Pink Floyd stuff. The likes of their first albums, for example. I became drawn into the universe of Pink Floyd through this album and it therefore served it's purpose. It actually introduced me to prog rock, period. There is no points in going through the songs here. They are all classics. Well, most of them. They made me very interested in the rest of the Pink Floyd albums and I soon got all of their albums. The artwork is excellent too. The artist is actually a Norwegian, born in the same hospital as I was. Not that it matters, but that was some Pub Quiz trivia for you. I think this compilation album is a good "beginners guide" and I award it three stars.
