Animals without a doubt. It's simply pure skill the whole way through. A Brilliant mix of lyrics and great tunes.

Most of all (or only?)   I love Wish you were here!

I think it's the most expressive opus from 70's.......i love Welcome to the machine and the shine "saga"........the only weak link is wish you were here, a power ballad a little bit boring (not in live performance, maybe)
Look in the mirror...my friend!

Obscured by Clouds, because it contains two of the Floyd's best ever tracks, Childhood's End and Free Four

Animals. Some of the best lyrics and music in one album. I never tire of listening to it.

I've gone for Animals, although I have to confess that I've not heard many of their earlier albums...
Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

i love the wall, but not just because of hey you or comfortably numb, the whole album is a metaphor to the book 1984 by george orwell, and the atmosphere of the album is just so captivating. "the trial" is one of the most haunting and immersive tracks ever. such a good album. i pity the fool who dislikes it just because it was popular!

Perfectly stated, but my favorite Pink Floyd album is Animals!

Obscured by Clouds for me. I love the whole album (except the end of Mudmen) - it's a bit different.

Animals, Wish You Were Here, Meddle, Dark Side are all very good too.
