Depending on the day, either DSOTM > WYWH > Animals > The Wall, or WYWH > DSOTM > Animals > The Wall. There is a sizable swathe of The Wall I simply don't care to listen to anymore. ------------- ...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology... |

| Animals > DSOTM > The Wall > WYWH. These days Animals and DSOTM are almost equal. I've always had WYWH rather low in my Pink Floyd ranking. It attracts me less than *many* others. |

It's rare for me to read this opinion about WYWH, but I feel the exact same way. DSOTM> Animals> The Wall> WYWH ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

DSTM, Animals, WYWH, Wall. Pretty easy for me where these 4 fall. DSTM is a masterpiece and Animals is a great album. Like a couple of other posters, WYWH is good but overrated. Wall has a number of songs I like, but, it has to many tracks that I don't care for. |

Animals > WYWH> DSOTM> The Wall I still find it hard to really appreciate DSOTM and next to other 1973 releases, a year that was seminal for prog, for some reason it has to be the album that is talked about and remembered most. Pink Floyd for me evolved for the next 2 albums expanding the 'formula' when others were disappearing up their backsides or just repeating themselves. Animals is a triumph and everything a prog album should be. After that they are not sure what to do with the massive punk backlash. The Wall is RW's answer. It's a 'play' more than an album and sits alongside Quadrophenia in that respect. Not surprising that both were eventually filmed. It's important but it's a very different 'Animal'.  |

WYWH > DSOTM > Animals > Wall can't imagine The Wall coming top of anyone's list! ------------- 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 |

But I see one vote (two now!) putting it in 2nd place, and I can easily imagine somebody having discovered it lately, and with a fresh taste for Pink's misadventures Not my case, of course.

Something like WYWH > Animals > DSOTM > The Wall or WYWH > DSOTM > Animals > The Wall ------------- quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond |

The first choice. I feel now that one can almost hear the decline in each chronological release post-73 that was the result of Waters increasing negativity and Wright's slow soft-demotion and fading away from being a (mostly) equal creative presence. Dave wasn't stiff-armed away in the same manner Wright was, but even with him it feels more he is operating professionally but with less emotional investment and less personal satisfaction, less interest as time goes on. I now really value and appreciate 67-73 so much, how they brought out the best in each other, but as Rog said in the interview, the "band of brothers" was over in '73. I believe I can hear the difference now in each subsequent release after that, especially with Richard. ------------- ...that moment you realize you like "Mob Rules" better than "Heaven and Hell" |

As of now, The Wall last seems to dominate. No one has DSOTM last. No one has The Wall first and the other three are splitting the first places equally. |

Eduardo, cool poll. Do another one with... Saucerful UmmaGumma Atom Heart Mother Meddle I realize that skips some stuff, but more than 4 titles probably gets too hairy
