Why? The early Syd Barrett years have little in common with Meddle and DSOTM, while DSOTM and Animals have little in common with the solo years of Radio KAOS and A Momentary Lapse of Reason. |
That's progressive for you. Ever onward.

The middle "half". However, I might be tempted to go with the last one, because it has some spectacular albums too, plus, since it's including the live albums, it actually includes most of the best songs from the middle period too. Damn, I already voted, I just kind of convinced myself I should have voted for the last period.

Classic Floyd. Something tells me the name alone of that category makes it pretty self explanatory of which 'half' has true greatness. More consistency was in the 2nd for sure. It's a classic!

first half + second half + third half, that's three halves  !. Anyway, the third one is for me.

Meddle is my top 1 album but Piper is still able to put me in a world made of gnomes, unicorns and black cats.
Early for me.

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

The classic era is far too popular to be beaten by the other two. On the original poll, the classics were tied down by the mediocre-bad later stuff, so Early had a fair chance

All of them are awesome, but the classic era is my favourite.
|
|
I am currently digging:
Hawkwind, Rare Bird, Gong, Tangerine Dream, Khan, Iron Butterfly, and all things canterbury and hard-psych. I also love jazz!
Please drop me a message with album suggestions.

Vote for the classic era here. The latter era has some good solo output (Amused to Death, On an Island, Remember That Night, Broken China).

Other: early + classic. Not on the poll, but I don't care.

I voted early. If they would've packed it in after Atom Heart Mother and Syd's solo albums they would have been one of my favourite cult bands
