Wish You Were Here

Pink Floyd's best album hands down. There is no question. It is perfect. Don't @ me.

Im so high to xapadex

Good

Considering this is the follow-up album to Pink Floyd's masterpiece, Dark Side Of the Moon the expectations were huge with this record. I always felt, Wish You Were Here was the low-key classic, that in many ways is just as good or even better than Dark Side. I heard a lot of this music in my late teens and of course, it still holds up today. I feel I should explore their earlier works to fairly compare all their albums. One of their best regardless and one of the better albums of the 70's, for sure!

Amazing album that pushed cemented Pink Floyds status as one of the greatest bands right after their groundbreaking Dark Side of the Moon. Some say Wish You Were Here is better but to me their basically equal but most importantly different. DSotM is more immediate while WYWH takes it's time to build up. Either way amazing stuff all around.

Get a decent pair of headphones and listen to Shine On You Crazy Diamond. You cannot deny that it's one of the best songs ever composed. From the slow build up, the emergence of \"Syd's Theme\", the overwhelming guitar from David, and the lyrics, there is not a single flaw in this song. The album is an absolutely stunning ballad to Syd Barrett that explains how the machine that is fame and the music industry broke him into an unrecognizable person. You can also sense Roger's admiration for Syd and his deep regret that his personal hero fell victim to his mind. Not everybody is a fan of Have A Cigar but I thought Roy Harper did an excellent job with guest vocals and the song writing wittily exposes record label executives. Welcome to the Machine and the titular track, Wish You Were Here are both amazing songs as well, furthering the tragedy of Syd at the hands of the record industry with the title track carrying a gorgeous acoustic line. Wish You Were Here is unique in that it is the most personal story Pink Floyd ever told, as they often strived to demolish society on other albums but instead opted to tell the story of a single man. But it is so unimaginably beautiful in its depiction of the spark we all have, how it fizzles, and ultimately what will always remain of that spark in those who love or even just know us, that this album may be the biggest statement they've ever or will ever put out.

I know this well. I put it on trying to Hear it with new ears, and first- well, that’s impossible. But to the extent I succeeded at all, it’s still brilliant, unique, gloomy, sorrowful, and beautiful. IMHO. Worst I can say about it is that the transition from Have a Cigar to the title track is really awkward. Second-worst thing I can say is that it’s not even one of this band’s top three…

2 perfectly crafted Shine ons, 2 shorter tracks that bring out the menacing direction of what's next on Animals, and the campfire classic tribute to where it all started with Syd

Love this album. Have a Cigar is wonderful.

Whopper album. Cover art 5/5 enigmatic

This is a class album, really enjoyed listening to it

Maybe the only example of prog rock that I can really get into. I didn't go into this expecting to like it more than than Dark Side of the Moon but man this is a balanced album and I love that they keep bringing it back to the same riffs. Feels very complete.

You ever ordered the 7 layer cake for dessert at a restaurant? You ever wondered why there are so many layers? Why not 3, 4, or, 5? You can’t even fit all 7 layers in your mouth at once anyway. But my are they all good. Cake…icing…cake…maybe a layer of fruit filling thrown in. Then the last bit of icing is extra thick. This album reminds me of that 7 layer dessert. The pianos, synths, and organ provide a vast, beautiful chocolate cake base. Layered between is a purposeful, graceful lead guitar. The bass, percussion, and even saxophone add accent layers, resulting in a multi-Michelin star palette. I could listen to this album over and over. I’m involuntarily letting out a “Mmmmm” after every sweet, mouthwatering bite. Bonus: Because we ARE HERE, I’ll put a plug in for Obscured by Clouds, Pink Floyd’s album just before Dark Side of the Moon. It served as the soundtrack for the French film La Vallée. It’s not talked about much, but it is worth checking out.

You've already listened to it, you already know what the fuck is up. If you haven't listened to it, why are you reading this? Hurry up and give your ears some sweet guitar licks and atmosphere!

Awesome, love Pink Floyd:)

Another great one from Pink Floyd filled with beautiful guitar and lots of meaning. I’ve loved the song Wish You Were Here for a while now and enjoyed getting to hear the whole album.

Not just an album, but a journey through an aural landscape. Majestic

!!!Boner Alert!!!

Legendary

Classic favorite

Slow-burning masterpiece.

I could write a 1000 word essay here on why Wish You Were Here is 5 stars. But like the album, its better to use words sparingly for maximum effect. Simply put, it's flawless to me. Fantastic lyrics about Pink Floyd's success and their troubled former bandmate Syd Barrett, along with a palette of flavours on the musical front. The title track and Shine On are the highlights of 4 great songs. Probably my favourite album ever.

Even though this is not fully my thing, this is an absolute classic in its genre. From start to finish this is, for me, the best that Pink Floyd has to offer. And Wish You Were Here is just the best song they've ever made. 5*

Discazo con mayúsculas de uno de los mejores exponentes de lo que es el rock alternativo y un tanto psicodélico. Temas largos y con mucha pomposidad. Canciones muy míticas

I mean come on, it's pink Floyd

It’s somewhat ironic that an album about desperation, loss, distance, and isolation is also the Floyds most inclusive, accessible, and straight forward record. It’s expansive and it takes its time, but while it’s short on songs, it’s long on great guitar solos and the band is in top form. ‘Wish You Were Here’ is just one of those universal records that almost everyone loves.

One of the albums I'm most familiar with on this list. "Wish You Were Here" is one of the first things I learned to play on guitar, so this album has a special place in my heart. All killer, no filler. Still sounds crisp and gorgeous. RIP Bob. Favorite tracks: "Have a Cigar", "Wish You Were Here"

An open double album cover with stems and seeds in the bend. Billowing baby blue bong smoke. Fast food drive-thru. OK, just so you know, I’m probably going to give a five star rating to most of Pink Floyd’s recordings until 'Final Cut,' including the early Syd Barrett years. Pure Gold. Or should I say Columbian Gold? Because weed and Pink Floyd go together like Peanut Butter and Jelly. I was having a conversation with a group of friends and colleagues once when a fellow expressed that he just didn’t ‘get’ Pink Floyd. Another dude asked him if he had ever smoked pot? And when he replied in the negative, the rest of the entire gathered assembly suggested, in unison, ‘There’s your problem!’ That’s not to say you can’t enjoy the Floyd sober- of course you can. But… One of the first times I got really, really high was at a high school party in an expansive and beautiful house way up in the mountains of Snowmass, CO, and 'The Dark Side of the Moon' was playing on a quadraphonic stereo. They don’t have enough stars to rate that. I had transcended the fucking stars. The second occasion was in Houston. I was 18-19 years old, and attending a midnight movie at some theatre with a wild girlfriend who loved to have sex in my car while parked in random persons’ driveways (which was not really to my taste); but, more to the point, always had the best weed (which was to my taste.) The movie was 'Live at Pompeii.' I knew nothing about it, she had arranged the whole thing. She had said something about 'Wish You Were Here' being her favorite song, and I thought she was referring to the soft rock hit by Chicago, ‘Wishing You Were Here.’ So imagine my surprise, super-high, when the lights dimmed and the movie began. Obviously, none of this is really a proper review of 'Wish You Were Here'- Roger Waters’ continuing expression of grief over the loss of his friend and founding Floyd member, Syd Barrett, to mental illness exacerbated by copious amounts of LSD ingestion. So, here’s mine in a nutshell: How does one follow up 'The Dark Side of the Moon,' one of the greatest LPs EVER recorded? 'Wish You Were Here,' that’s how. I currently live in Denver, CO, the first of these United States to legalize recreational marijuana. And this ain’t your 1975 pot anymore. These young blood hipsters have taken things to a whole other level. Which can only mean that a random sampling of their reviews of 'Wish You Were Here' will surely reflect their enjoyment of it, too; and, perhaps even more than mine when I was their age… and high.

Amazing

10/10

A fantastic album, brilliantly produced. The opening 9 mins of Shine on You Crazy Diamond is just incredible. Overall, it's a stone cold classic.

Re-listening for the generator. Was delighted to see some Floyd appear as my next record. Part 2 of 4 in Pink Floyd’s legendary 1973-79 run, Wish You Were Here is a mesmerizing ride down a winding river. The sweeping two big pieces of Shine On…, the rollers Welcome to the Machine and Have a Cigar, and above all else the heart-rending title track, this album is simply exquisite. Perhaps too short for a perfect score, perhaps too unvaried, but it maintains. 10/10

Another childhood album of mine. I loved shine on you crazy diamond and wish you were here as a kid but now I’ve come to appreciate the rest of the album more

All-time favorite album. A masterpiece.

9/10

A masterpiece. One of the best pieces of music ever recorded. Beautiful, emotional, and universal even though the subject matter is very personal to the band. The song “Wish You Were Here” is, in my opinion, a perfect piece of music.

One of the classics!

Well.

Fucking amazing, a masterpiece.

5/5 ein af bestu plötum allra tíma

5! Just absolutely amazing

This album has a lot of nostalgia for the frequent trips back to my Dads hometown visiting my grandparents when I was little. On the way there, a Pink Floyd cassette; and on the way back, Carpenters for my mum. For him there was already a strong connection as the band is also from his hometown, Cambridge; and he made sure to remind me every single time that he went to the same school as some of the band members (albeit different years, haha). I never understood the impact and influence of Pink Floyd until many years later and can completely understand why some people find this album overrated. That in between stage of childhood and adulthood, that was me. I got tired of it, it was 'uncool' dad rock that was played too often, went on too long, I wanted to listen to something new. None of my friends even knew what Pink Floyd were. When I rediscovered it in my 20s, something just clicked. I don't think this is their best album but for me this album is timeless. I can put it on almost any day of the year and it never gets old. With only five tracks on the album, the length is surprising. Each track feels like it has its place in the album, bringing all the emotion that could possibly be shown, building up and winding down. The bluesy tunes over drones and steady beats serving to reinforce the messages. Two of the songs (Welcome to the Machine & Have a Cigar) very clearly describe the music industry and the whole album seems a tribute specifically for the troubled former member Syd Barrett. Even knowing this, the songs still feel relatable, especially to early adulthood and trying to find your feet in the world. Promises made by employers never come to fruition. The pressure to fit a mould. Making mistakes. The guilt of leaving people behind who had been a formative part of our lives and the sorrow of losing them completely. Discovering nothing really changes.

Classic top tier Floyd album. Love the music and the themes. “Have a Cigar” is great commentary on music biz and life in general. Another thing I like is the cover - that’s a real dude on fire with real fire. They didn’t have photoshop back then…

one of the few I kept relistening to all day. A perfect album.

Classic

This was definitely the easiest 5 of this list so far, as I've listened to this album quite a number of times the last few years. Pink Floyd in general and Wish You Were Here in particular is one of the most biggest influences for some of the bands I love most today, especially in progressive rock & metal and atmospheric metal. Despite its now considerable age its still a fantastic album in its own right. It's soothing yet moving, accessible yet deep, haunting yet uplifting. It's an album that has a soul. The title track is among my favorite songs of all time, but I also really love all parts of Shine On.

Clasicote

Top

After getting Floyd's debut album earlier this week (and still not really enjoying it all that much) it's nice to get this one for the weekend. Interesting meta-album concept to me ... I just listened to the Stones' "Exile on Main Street" which is an album I don't particularly like, one of the reasons being that rather than a collection of decent songwriting I found that album more of just a vibe (A bluesy drugged out communal country house vibe if that's your thing). To be consistent - I should say the same of "Wish You Were Here" - this is definitely a vibe album, but instead this one being a slow space travel vibe...? It's different because even if the longest song tracks in at over 20 (!) minutes, it still works as a *song* as do the 3 shorter ones. Right off the bat this album draws you in: the almost eternally-long instrumental intro to "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" doesn't give us any vocals until nearly 9 minutes in. But it's right for this music - it sets up tension before "that riff" comes in at about 3:55, slowly repeating into a crescendo before the band kicks in for a bit, backs off, etc. Perhaps a bit of confirmation bias here but this never could have worked as a shorter song. I don't think you can fully appreciate the (overplayed?) singles until you hear them within context of the full album. Which...of course just means playing them between the cut 20 minute "Shine On..." Random note: I never knew until many decades later that the vocalist on Have A Cigar wasn't anyone from the band but English musician Roy Harper. A word or two about the production - this is prime-era Floyd where the mix sounds gorgeous...the great 70s analog synths blending perfectly with Gilmour's perfectly restrained guitar, clarity in vocals and acoustic guitars - the overall sound is just as much what makes this a classic as the music itself. This might not be for everyone (but shouldn't everyone enjoy a 20 minute song now and again) and may not be in my favourite ~50 albums ever but for what they were going for it's perfection - turn the lights down, turn the volume way up, and this is a vibe I can always get behind. 9/10 5 stars.

One of the greatest. Amazing the whole way through.

10

Maybe not quite the epic quality to match Dark Side of the Moon or The Wall, but I like how clearly the story comes through. And just great music

One of the best albums ever recorded

Absolute banger. top tier album rip syd barret

This album is straight up iconic. One of the greatest albums of all time. Love the theme throughout the entire album. So sad that the band was missing one of its members and were feeling the weight of carrying on. Favorite tracks? Probably the title track of the album or the heavy ass rock your face of “have a cigar” Seriously though. If you like music you must listen to this album

Sublime as ever. While Dark Side might have better stand-out tracks, this is their most cohesive album, and such a gorgeous soundscape! Fav new track: N/A, but old is ofc Wish You Were Here.

I could just give this the 5 stars it deserves and move on, but before I do so I will note there are 3 other Pink Floyd albums I consider superior to this one. Yet Wish You fully deserves 5 stars: For the performances, For successfully doing this themed album (even if I don't necessarily sympathize with the suffering created by the music industry), But most of all for the great music. The title song is, easily, one of the most beautiful songs ever written. Now it's time to sit back, have a cigar, and listen to this great album once more.

Outstanding stuff

bdbdbdndndndkdn

classic

One of my favorite albums

Obviously 5*

Nice songs, didn't know many modern songs still have essense of pink floyd in em.

full journey

Contains the greatest song ever

This was really nice to listen to on a block where I just needed to get some work done. It flows incredibly well end-to-end and takes you to different places along the way without being jarring or pretentious. Loved hearing this again after a long hiatus.

Великолепный алмаз

This is still the perfect album for when you want to stargaze on a cloudy day. Close your eyes and melt into the everything.

What happens when you have to top one of the biggest albums ever made: you just get better. Musically it's more Gilmour than Waters, and the better for it. Excellent tone and a tide of both grandeur and ennui. (Also, that 'Have a Cigar' intro is one of the most porno-sounding things ever recorded. Class.) Definitely higher in the pile than Dark Side, deservedly so.

One of my favorite albums ever.

10/10, of course. Nothing I’d change about this album

10

That's a 10. I don't know if I like this or The Wall best, as they are both phenomenal but very different

One of my most-listened albums ever. I don’t go back to it super often anymore, but every time I do it’s like a breath of fresh air. 10/10

What can I say? An absolute classic. The only question is whether this is a 4.75 or a straight 5 for me. I find this album more personally enjoyable than Dark Side or Animals, which are the consensus and music nerd picks for the best late era Pink Floyd album respectively. All three are great. (The Wall doesn't belong in this discussion, IMO. There's a number of great songs on it, but it's one of the most blatantly bloated albums of all time.)

God, this was beautiful. My favorite Pink Floyd album

Fab

One of my favorite albums. In my opinion Pink Floyd’s second best album but my personal favorite. It’s so easy to get lost in the sounds of shine on. Wish you were here is a beautiful song. Have a cigar really rounds out the album, helping it transition from the beginning to the end. Everyone about this album is outstanding. 9.8/10

Perfect album!

Legendery

Shine on you crazy diamond. Shine on.

Over the years Shine On and Have a Cigar have only grown in my estimation, though my enthusiasm for Welcome to the Machine has waned. Still, pretty unimpeachable record you got here, Mr. Floyd.

True Rating: 100/100

Wahnsinn! Grade shine on you crazy diamond…

My favorite album from (one of) my all-time favorite groups. Dark Side of the Moon may get more glory, and it deserves the praise it gets, but this album is the Pink Floyd at their best for me, especially Richard Wright. The synths on this project are so massive, but so emotional at the same time. This band really just has a way of grabbing a hold of you and whisking you away into whatever world they are crafting in the music. And when you add the inspiration to most of the lyrics and the story of Syd Barret into it all, you get the cherry on top of this sweet, sweet dessert.

The album before my fave. I can hear the vocal transitions happening, and the soundscape elements that I love so much really begin to blossom here.

Woah. I was not expecting to really love this. This album is beautiful.

Classic album

Flawless

5/5

this is another album that's very difficult to be even remotely objective about. it came into my life at a time that should be impossible to be nostalgic about, but somehow this album makes it not only possible, but inevitable. also, knowing the bookend tracks are all about syd really gives the whole thing weight. plus, the title track - every guitarist learns that opening at some point, i'm sure. this album is of its time, but timeless.

5/5. Know this album so well. It is a masterpiece. Every song is great.

When I first heard this I was a bit disappointed - I guess I was expecting more aggressive and innovative synthesizers and effects that they had laid down on Dark Side and its predecessors - but I got over it.

A lot has been said about this album so I don’t need to repeat it. I would say that Meddle, DSOTM, Animals and The Wall are all excellent but Wish you were here may just edge out the others, ever so slightly.

This is in the running for my top 10 albums of all time. Love it so much.

Overlooked because of their two classic concept albums but still great.

Probably didn’t enjoy it quite as much as Dark side of the moon but it’s still great. Shine on you crazy diamond is really awesome

One of the greatest prog albums of all time.

No puedo ser objetivo con uno de mis discos favoritos, cada día parece más perfecto

I think that more has been said about this album than ever needs to be said about any album, probably, so just take my five stars.

In high school Pink Floyd was my favourite band. And this is my favourite album from them. I have moved on from my high school tastes but this album is still great. 5 stars

dies de dies

5! If I was high it would be a 10 and I'd be spending an hour trying to figure out how to find the 10. One of the classics. One of rock's masterpieces. Beautiful.

One of my favorites!

Herregud vad bra detta är. Ett av deras flera mästerverk. Det är ett album med relativt få spår, men oj vilken kvalite. 3 av låtarna har jag redan innan lyssnat otroligt mycket på innan så dom var jag redan medveten om vilken kvalite dom höll. Sedan har vi "Welcome to the machine" och "Have a cigar" som jag direkt förknippar med barndomen. Introduktionen till Pink Floyd kom tidigt pga min pappa. Men när jag var så ung var jag inte redo för den typen av musik, det var inte så att jag inte tyckte om det. Men jag förstod inte storheten. De där två låtarna känns det som att jag inte hört sedan jag satt i bilen med pappa och han körde igång Wish you were here. Jag blir alldeles varm inombords när jag hör dom för vad som känns som första gången på 10 år. Magi! Bäst: "Shine on you crazy diamond, Pts. 1-5"

Very instrumental rock.

One of my all time favorite albums!

Fantastic. Definitely a return to listen.

Really liked this one, very chill

Definitely Top 5 of all time. Planetarium Rock. It's a celebration of grand transience and wistful recognition of the fleetingness of all things combined with some serious guitar solos/rocking out.

GOLD!!!

Listened before. GOAT album

One of the all time great

classic

Magic from the first second to the last

Ill give it a five just for wish you were here, the shine on you crazy diamond is a 4.

5/5

One of the greats. Bloody marvellous at high volume!

Superb, nothing like it!

Never stop shining you crazy diamond

Psych rock, how is this from 1975 it sounds so FRESH

Quem nao foi no show do Roger Waters eh otario.

Dit is en blijft zo'n goed album. Pink Floyd heeft zo'n typische stijl die je meevoert.

Rustgevend album met goeie, opbouwende nummers. Er zou wel een moment kunnen komen dat ik deze nog eens opzet

AWESOOOOMEEEE

Such a drastic change in quality compared to the other prog rock record from yesterday. Pink Floyd was in their prime with this one, and this a huge fucking stride to hit. Instrumentally rich, compositionally unmatched, structured perfectly. Only gripe I have is with David Gilmour's occasionally strained vocals, but man is it easy to look past. One of the best albums ever.

Easy 5 star.

its a 5 every day of the week. Reminds me of being late teens, drugs, mates. Great.

Classic!

I love this music; I've listened to it many times before so I'm pretty biased. Pink Floyd albums are an immersive experience. This album in particular takes me back to driving through southern Utah deserts in the middle of the night, helping to make me feel like I was on a different planet. This music is so intense, so surreal, so expansive. Plus so much history behind these songs. This is why people still love Pink Floyd.

Incredible piece of music imo, great album, very cohesive for it's time 😉

5.0 + Getting blazed and listening to this record in my buddy’s Nissan Maxima was among the most formative music experiences of my teenage years.

Contiene una de las mejores canciones de la historia.

Excellent Album. Short but very good

todo lo que haga pink floyd es arriba de 5

I am still on a trip

2nd only to Darkside

I have listened to this vinyl more than 10x in the last week. This is a gemstone, a travel through the ages, sadness, nostalgia, joy, and every feeling in between. A political, social and cultural statement that breaks chains and gets you through a vortex of timeless music.

What should I say - one of the best album ever. A milestone in the music history I saw Pink Floyd in Dortmund operating "The Wall"

Muy bueno

I’ve only ever heard radio edits of these songs, and album is much better than I thought it’d be.

Indispensable

Amazing dad rock. Can't really beat this one.

Great record! Really enjoyed listening to it again, start to finish. Good soundtrack to a chill morning frying bacon and eggs for the fam.

One of my favorite albums - if not my favorite - of all time. The title song is the first song I learned to play on guitar and is still my go-to “noodling” song when I pick up the instrument. I love everything about the album and all of its weird little idiosyncrasies.

Es muy obvio no?...5!

I've loved this album for far too long to have any objectivity. Flawless. Fave track - "Wish You Were Here", I guess, but really I think the whole album should be consumed as one cohesive unit...

Pink Floyd nunca hubiera podido haber sido lo que fue sin Syd Barrett... Pink Floyd nunca hubiera podido haber sido lo que fue con Syd Barret. Es cierto, buena parte del disco es sobre la ausencia de Syd pero, a mi parecer el disco que realmente habla sobre su partida es DSOTM, aquí, aunque anímicamente se encontraran en un lugar bajo durante su composición, se siente más como una carta de despedida y un cierre a una situación tremendamente triste. A sabiendas de la historia son claros los paralelos pero creo que la temática patente de entrada del disco lo sostiene por completo sin necesidad de saber la historia subyacente. En el momento en que habían explotado después de DSOTM hacen el que, a mi parecer es su mejor disco; con una temática brutalmente incisiva sobre el trato de las disqueras a los artistas. Siempre me ha gustado tanto la idea de la biografía prefabricada que la disquera quiere inventarle al artista para que venda más en Welcome to the Machine y la línea "By the way, which one's Pink?" en Have a Cigar es simplemente brillante y creo sintetiza por completo de qué trata el disco. Musicalmente no hay forma de que fuera mejor, absolutamente nada le falta ni le sobra. Shine On en todas sus partes y tan larga como es jamás se siente lenta, ese sonido undulante del sintetizador que es exacto y característico, presente tanto aquí como en Welcome to the Machine, esos solos brillantísimos blueseados, esas letras escuetas pero perfectas y al punto. Creo que a la fecha no hay banda de progresivo que pueda acercarse a la simpleza y perfección de esa suite completa. Las otras canciones igualmente de brillantes, inventivas y centradas. Para cuando llega la canción titular todo desaparece y queda una canción con guitarra acústica que si bien relata y se crea con un sentido específico es universalmente familiar para creo toda persona y aplicable de manera personal, no hay persona a quien esa canción no le "llegue." Termina con la segunda mitad de SYD que igualmente se va como agua. No quiero explayar demasiado, es un disco que inevitablemente me es demasiado subjetivo, lo he escuchado literalmente completo cientos y cientos de veces en 25 años que tengo de conocerlo. Sin la complejidad a veces barroca del Dark Side se siente incluso a mi parecer como un disco más sólido y de concepto más sólido, a mi gusto personal este es el mejor disco de Pink Floyd (sin pretender quitar lo brillante del otro proyecto, realmente del 73 al 79 estamos hablando de cuatro discos seguidos perfectos o casi perfectos). Un punto interesante es que como mencioné, he escuchado esto cientos de veces e incluso hoy en día sigo encontrando cosas que no había notado... En esta ocasión fueron dos: Durante Have a Cigar el ritmo se lleva entre bajo y sintetizador escuchandose uno al lado izquierdo y uno en el derecho, en un ritmo de 4/4; excepto que en el tiempo "7" a veces se mete un tiempo acompasado adicional y en ese momento las pistas cambian de lado y así se van intercambiando, nunca lo había notado y se me hizo muy interesante. Otro punto nuevo.... Al final del disco, ya al cerrar la última parte de Shine On se puede escuchar en el fondo a alguien tocando una parte de la canción See Emily Play, nunca había notado esto y siento le da ese cierre triste pero en homenaje a todo el asunto de Syd Barret. Disco de 10 o 5 o como le quieran llamar, es un disco sin un solo fallo en mi opinión.

These guys changed the game

Syd y sus problemas, maldita industria y los problemas que traemos. Es impresionante como un disco de 576 palabras puede comunicar sentimientos de manera tan marcada y clara. Shine on, a mi gusto, comienza más espacial, más nostálgica y termina con algo de enojo, stress; quieres, te duele y te enoja Syd. Maldita industria cínica, nos vamos a juntar a grabar un disco porque tenemos y al menos aprovecharemos para morder la mano que nos da de comer, Welcome y Have a cigar. Me gustaría que estuvieras aquí, tú amigo que te atacó la psicodelia, tú amigo que sigues conmigo desde el inicio, desde antes del Piper, tú amigo genio emergente que viene a salvar y revolucionar las cosas. Pero con los problemas de salud y los de la propia industria, puedes estar físicamente y no estar realmente en el cuarto. No estar y si lo estás, para qué estarlo? Para pelear? Para venderte? Todo envuelto en un genio musical bestial y lo muestran de forma eléctrica, espacial y acústica. Songs: Wish You Were Here, Shine 1-5, Welcome to the Manchine

Classic rock is classic but shit, yeah.

It's pink floyd, whats not to love.

One of my favorite albums.

classic

Simple.

One of my favourite albums by one of my favourite bands. Enough said there really.

One of the all time greats

Dar una reseña de este disco va a ser complicado. ¿Qué podría decir que no se haya dicho ya en otras reseñas? Me gustan mucho los arreglos y el uso de sintetizadores, especialmente en “Shine on”. Me recuerda a la música de Naranja Mecánica; un uso vanguardista de los efectos y la tecnología disponible en la época. Es una delicia escuchar este disco, pero confieso que me gusta más Dark Side of the Moon.

Difícil dar una reseña de un disco que he escuchado decenas de veces, en éste mes por lo menos lo escuché unas 6 e inclusive esperé a que llegaran mis audífonos nuevos sólo para estrenarlos con este disco. La primer vez que escuché el disco completo fue por curiosidad ya que un viejo amor me dedicó y me cantaba wish you were here allá por el 99 o 2000 y quedé marcado de por vida tanto por la canción como por la banda ya que de ahí partió una búsqueda del sentimiento que he de confesar aún tengo hacia ésta persona. Cada canción tiene su sentimiento por qué más que sentido o ritmo o compás para mí cada canción de Pink Floyd es un sentimiento. El disco es un viaje de sentimientos tan profundos hacia diferentes direcciones. Tal vez la canción fue escrita para Syd pero bien ya ha sido tomada para hacerle saber a alguien que se le extraña. Hay una versión de Mandowar con mandolina que le da una vuelta más al coro que es como creo yo que debería ser por qué es muy corta la versión original y siempre quieres más wish you y más Pink Floyd https://open.spotify.com/track/3uTNBjOrKWhBfEL1Ii8kay?si=pF0lCkkpT8WyeOt3P_yMCw&dl_branch=1 también hay una versión alterna con Stephane Grapelli https://youtu.be/8sAF-7F4m2E Simplemente es Pink Floyd y punto

Wish You Were Here quizá no fue un disco que cambiara el destino de la música (como lo fueron otros discos de Pink Floyd u otros discos de la lista) sino que es el disco que lleva a la cima las ideas de la banda y lo que pueden hacer en música y en letras. En particular, años de escuchar 'Shine On I-V' y aún me encanta cada detalle que oigo. Amo las subidas, bajadas, cambios de instrumentación, todo. Algo así con 'Wish You Were Here'. Pese a ser una canción que he oído miles de veces y que podría ya estar quemada en mi cabeza, cada vez que empieza la disfruto y aprecio.

It's Pink Floyd, no explanation needed.

I wish I could give this album an 11. Of all the Floyd albums (Including Dark Side), this is still my favorite.

5

So good

IMO best pink floyd album. Sue me.

This one is a masterpiece. I've listened to it a ton, every song is great. Best enjoyed by listening to the whole album

Uh ya beat album

Great album, always have time for Pink Floyd.

I don't think it's as high level conceptually as The Wall or even Dark Side, but as an enjoyable collection of tracks it's hard to beat this in Pink Floyd's discography.

Wish you were here...

лучше темной стороны луны

pang säger det!

A masterpiece

Great rock jams, and best ballad ever.

One of the best ever made.

Love it

Five out of five

I have a hard time picking a favorite Pink Floyd album. In my mind, they can almost do no wrong. If you put a gun to my head, I'll probably say this one. Or maybe it's The Wall. Or maybe Animals (I'm aware this is an unpopular opinion). No, it's probably this one. Best track: Wish You Were Here

Fantastic, epic rock album. Equal parts beautiful and bombastic. Fave tracks: Shine On You Crazy Diamond (1 and 2) and Wish You Were Here.

1975. Key Songs: Wish You Were Here, Shine On You Crazy Diamond

Absolutely timeless

beautiful <3

Pink floyd as one of the bests.

Some of the best instrumentals ever. Shine on You Crazy Diamond (1-5) is a great song and likely the best on the album. The pacing just feels a bit off at times and can lose your engagement. Overall 8.5 out of 10, or 4.3 out of 5.

Such a cool atmospheric album with mystifying synths

Shine on

Good, just not my music taste

pink floyd!

A : 4, Shine on me Crazy Diamond JL : 3, Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Pts. I-V)

Atmospheric and cohesive. Some beautiful guitar work. Not all the tracks hit.

It's objectively good, just not really my thing

Believe it or not, Wish you were here was the first song I learned on guitar by ear. Never really heard Shine On You Crazy Diamond before, but OMG David Gilmour at his best!

Moogen får kjørt seg på denne plata.

Fin plate. Tar meg tilbake til ungdomsskolen.

Contains the bands most famous song so it gets street cred for rhat

SoYCD 1-5 : une odyssey, 13 minutes de pure musique, des accords qui se succèdent et les paroles après 7 minutes d’instrument. - l’album est une odyssey, un voyage. Chaque chanson s’emboîte avec l’autre. Les effets sonores ajoutés à la musique qui donne du caractère et l’impression d’écouter un film, sans l’image. - SoYCD 6+ : fin exceptionnelle. L’intro semble de trop après avoir eu quelques chansons à paroles, mais lors du chorus, on découvre l’essence même de l’album. Un ode à une personne disparue.

Shine on you crazy diamond celkem goated

It's good, with really a single heavy hitter surrounded by really great accompanying tracks. Classic music vibes. Doesn't have the same gravitas as The Wall or Dark Side of the Moon, but altogether it's a solid fare. Would gladly listen again.

Not bad at all but, as every Pink Floyd album, it is b-o-r-i-n-g.

Overall, there are some genius moments on this record but I just feel like it’s over-produced. I like the early Pink Floyd much more. Everything here feels a little too radio polished to also feel psychedelic. Not enough noise.

Pink Floyd is not my particular flavor of classic rock but I really enjoyed this listen. Lots of MIDI and orchestras patches that caught my attention. Would def go back for a relisten

Touching and great

goat

The overall production/lyrical quality of this album is amazing, and I appreciate that the album only consists of 5 songs rather than a bunch of mediocre 'filler' songs, although they are admittedly longer. The only issue I have with this album is that all the songs utilise a very similar synth/guitar solo sound - at parts the instrumental breaks do sound quite repetitive. I think the dreamy atmosphere of the songs as a whole inadvertently reinforces the overall message of the album - the acoustic guitar passages can be interpreted as representing the band members' nostalgia for a time before fame, romanticising the freedom and authenticity of their earlier lives. In contrast, the recurring synthesiser textures seem to evoke the presence of "the machine"—the music industry's commercial pressures and expectations. Together, these elements create a compelling musical depiction of the band's struggle to preserve their identity while operating within the confines of the industry. I will say I like how the album concludes on a bittersweet tone - perhaps symbolising how they are able to acknowledge their success and global fame whilst reflecting upon the effects that their negative experiences have had on their present selves - including the loss of Syd Barrett and their disillusionment with the music business. This balance between gratitude and regret gives the ending considerable emotional weight. Overall, this is a beautifully composed album featuring a blend of acoustic, electronic, and heavier guitar sounds. Will definitely be re-listening to this! I'm going to give this album a rating of 4/5 - the lyrics are simple yet clever, and the overall sound of this album is encapsulating, although slightly repetitive at times.

I’ve listened to this already

I never listened to Pink Floyd growing up. They weren't on my radar, and I guess I had some weird perception about them, like they were a genre of music I like (although I have no idea what that genre was). They've come up twice so far, and I'm so impressed. I wish I'd been listening to them longer. There was part of a song on this album that I didn't like (not a fan of whiny guitar solos), but I'll definitely be checking out their entire library. It's never too late to find a new band or song!

Initial post listing ranking: 8/10 Type of music / Reminds me of: Thoughts: Me likey. but some parts took me out of it Favorite Track: Wish You Were Here

Tender and personal, the “difficult” follow up to Dark Side is one of their best.

Iconic album cover, but not my favorite Pink Floyd album.

Favourite Songs: Welcome To The Machine

Not necessarily my jam but I do admire the skill

Never really listened to Pink Floyd before so was excited when I opened this one up. And this was cool.

i was able to tell more and more songs/albums influenced by this record alone, but i only truly liked the album-titled track

..

Good prog rock sounds I heard during splatoon on a Thursday

The titular song is one of the great songs of all time. The rest of the album is also very good. It's probably closer to a 3.5, but that title track, man.... Post review edit: This may be the first time that I liked an album a lot and my score was lower than the average....that's kinda wild

A very melancholy album but quite nice.

Much better than I expected. Shine On You Crazy Diamond (1-5) was a wonderful ride from start to beginning. It set the atmosphere for the rest of the album perfectly. The guitar solo at the end of Have A Cigar makes you lock back in to the album. Shine On (6-9) is a great call back to sandwich the album as it rides off into the sunset

I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would

So poetic. I love it. It's a big fluid emotive expression. It's a fantastic expression of the blues for me - in contrast to half of this list which sometimes feels like fairly dry rehashing of blues in slightly different contexts. Even when using 12 bar blues here I think it does it in a fairly free pleasing way. Gilmore's guitar is so good on this record. That might be the one thing record has over dark side of the moon for me. Otherwise this feels slightly less powerful to me across the board

Great

This album really surprised me. I saw how few tracks there were on a 45-minute album and instantly assumed I was in for a very tedious time. I had not listened to any Pink Floyd before listening to this album, and I was unsure about how I would feel. As soon as noticing how long the first track was, I was completely dreading it, to be honest. However, as soon as those first notes hit, I was in awe. The cinematic feel that this album gives off is unreal. I loved the instrumental throughout, and could listen to it for hours. The vocals are quite few and far between, but they don't come in at a time where they don't belong; They add just as much as any other instrument, and the smooth vocals just work so well with the instrumentation. A really beautiful album to listen to. Favourite track: Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Pts.1-5)

Are there mainstream bands making albums like this nowadays? Were Pink Floyd considered mainstream when this was released? A 14 minute mostly instrumental opening track just feels quite far away from where we are as a society at the moment. We should return to that.

A great sounding album. The title track is wonderfully written and my favorite of the album. Every track was good, though the last track dragged on a little a bit.

I mean its a good album. Not among my favourites but still good.

Just an effortlessly cool album. A lot of fun to listen to, but not as good as some of their other ones.

I enjoyed this a lot more than I was expecting. I was thinking I'd be a hipster snob and not like what everyone else does, but this is actually a really solid album.

Great album. So weird and different.

Ricardo. Ya tenia en mi cerebro algo de ésto. Welcome to the machine helloooo Nota: 4.0

Trippy

Yeah that was good

While never my favorite Pink Floyd album as a whole, with 1001+ albums, it certainly deserves a spot here. Have a Cigar is amazing and Wish You Were Here is one of my favorite songs ever. The textures on this album are top notch. My issue here is that I have never been able to really latch on to Shine On You Crazy Diamond in the ways I feel its intended. Its good, unique and exploratory but I find it just doesn't stick the landing.

Floyd be Pinkin'

personally not my thing really, but i do appreciate it

I like wish you were here but it's a bit bloody long

I have heard this album a number of times before, and expected going in that I would be rating it a four or five. However, it was really just OK for me today. The three shorter songs are all pretty great. However, the very long “Shine on You Crazy Diamond“, two versions of which bookend the album, just doesn’t do it for me.

I've really only seriously listened to Dark Side of the Moon, so this album was mostly a new one for me. I found this wonderfully depressing.

Headphones and some minor substance abuse really made this album a lot of fun. Production is complex and interesting and the vocals have that lovely haunting quality. I kind of wish it was a little more cohesive as a Syd Barrett concept album/tribute. Welcome to the Machine and Have a Cigar are both great songs but they don’t really seem to fit the theme. Or maybe they do and I'm just missing the connections. Anyway it was fun to revisit after a couple of decades.

Pink Floyd is either hit or miss for me. I love the Wall. Dark side of the moon is great. Some of the 80s stuff is just okay. This album is great. But I kind of tuned out Shine on you Crazy Diamond. But the album is really good.

#357/1001. 2nd Pink Floyd album here. I always think beforehand that this was the boring album, but after playing realise that this is crazy diamond. But starting to sound very commercial and stadiumsize, somehow it would have been interesting to hear that album made with kitchen utensils and machines or what was it after dark side of the moon. Some great songs, some of good that they play them twice or extend in to 10 minute lengths, but we still tend to forgive them.

> the Beatles Wish You Were Here is one of the greatest songs of all time. Welcome to the Machine and Have a Cigar are great songs. I unfortunately lose interest in the Shine on You Crazy Diamond segments

Album

not my favorite of theirs, but good

Really solid jam album! I had only heard wish you were here before listening the whole thing down. I am not normally a fan of rock without words but there was such a thick presence that I didn't mind

Shockingly enjoyed this album. Good vibes

Once again another album I listened to not long ago. but it is still about time a pink floyd album appeared on here. So i used to hate pink floyd. I thought they were too slow, too energy sapping and too pretentious to enjoy. Nowadays I see The Wall, Dark Side of the Moon and this some as the best progressive rock albums I have ever listened to. While the other two have certain themes that are easy to understand, this one goes into more of an emotionally complex journey which was clearly inspired by the life and death of Syd Barrett. The first son always sends shivers down my spine whenever I listen to it.I will only give this one four stars but thats only because The Wall and Dark Side of the Moon are better. Although I do need to listen to Meddle and Animals more.

I enjoyed “Shine On You Crazy Diamond” and “Welcome to the Machine,” but the other songs didn’t fulfil me as much. It is a Progressive Rock, Art Rock, and Experimental Rock album that was released on 12 September 1975.

Great album 3/5

Classic Pink Floyd. Again an album I have not enjoyed in its entirity for a while. Enjoyed it!

I used to listen to this album all the time. Perfectly atmospheric, easy listening but intense at the same time. Fantastic work and a classic for a reason

would be 5 stars if the intros wouldnt have been so long

Musically a good album, limited variety. Strong tracks.

If you get the opportunity to make enough records, you will make a road album eventually. Of course, at their imperial pomp, Pink Floyd were in the air on private jets, rather than on the road, and in studios for months, rather than in hotels far from their loved ones, making them further isolated from regular people and their concerns than most musicians. This might explain why Wish You Were Here loses some of the universality of theme that characterised its predecessor - although, isolation may also explain why Dark Side of the Moon tackles broad generalities rather than emotional specifics. It is hard to tell, nine albums in and millions of sales later, how the rock star is meant to connect with anybody. A little luck. Some pandering. A bit of guesswork. Roger Waters certainly doesn't know. And it is amazing that this piece of 'inside baseball' is as successful as it is. He will tackle the core issues of WYWH again later on The Wall, but WYWH is, I think, the more concise, targeted statement - if you can call all nine parts of Shine On You Crazy Diamond either concise or targeted. It's more effective too. For, while the record is not shy in presenting harsh, unpleasant music - Welcome to the Machine and Have A Cigar are intentional grotesques, very hard to listen to for pleasure - it is bookended by some of the angry Waters' most humane and specific writing: a portrait of Syd Barrett, the rock star so disconnected from everybody that his own bandmates hardly recognise him when he visits the studio; and the title track, which also addresses the death of Waters' father. It is hard to gauge what self-awareness Waters has here: in writing about these personal subjects is he being honest and, therefore, creating honest relatable music (universal sentiment mined from biographical specifics) or is he merely feeding material to the machine? Is the Crazy Diamond suite just more myth-building that isolates Barrett - and all rock stars after him - further? Reflecting on the dehumanising effects the industry hand on his friend does nothing to change the industry - it shifts more records and it risks dehumanising him further by abstracting him into mythos. And mythos sells! So when Waters turns that truth into total abstraction on The Wall, creating the rock star avatar, Pink, it feels cheap to me. When he returns to his father's death on The Final Cut, he makes a full album - that's an artistic statement and its a product. Once you're in the machine, it's hard to get out. Even the title track, the most straight-forward sentiment on the album recognises this. It's corny E minor country riff performs authenticity from the get-go, even when filtered through a tight envelop, suggesting a radio speaker - the medium through which all pop music comes to us. When it bursts into technicolour (a closer mapping to The Wizard of Oz than Dark Side of the Moon), it feels more realistic, despite the obvious contrivance. But everything the rock star does is mediated. They are always in the isolation of the vocal booth. Yet, while Pink Floyd acknowledge that here, it doesn't stop Wish You Were Here from being effective. The song is performed at house parties and open mics the world over. Possibly because its sentiment is universal. Possibly because its corny riff much easier than the band's other epic compositions. It's a little luck. Definitely some pandering. And all the guesswork. Once I got deep into Welcome to the Machine, I was certain that I would mark this album lower than expected. I never liked Have A Cigar, but Welcome to the Machine - with its cold washes and dystopian swooshes - felt like seeing how the sausage was made, then having the hard metal sausage shoved down your throat. But I've talked myself out of such sensitive critique. I've talked the album back up. Pink Floyd may be deep inside the machine here, but the machine depends on humanity to keep it running and the humanity here is desperate, sad, and affecting. 4 [our car approaches IKEA as ‘Welcome to the Machine’ plays] Me: “Pink Floyd is making this trip to IKEA feel dystopian”. Fiona: “Every trip to IKEA feels dystopian.” Recently I have indulged in a couple of long(ish) negative reviews. I say indulged because there is such pleasure to be had in negativity. It is moreish, like crisps. Coldplay? Green Day? Why shouldn’t I eat a whole ‚sharing bag‘ in one sitting? Now comes Wish You Were Here to sharpen those pricks of conscience telling me it would be all well and good if I could write a long positive review for a change. Well part of the pleasure of negativity is how easy it is to find fault. Part of the challenge of positively analysing a piece of great Art is that its greatness is often inscrutable. Wish You Were Here is doubly challenging because it genuinely ought to be awful. Successful rock stars moaning about how gross it is to be successful. 25 minutes out of a 45 minute record dedicated to mythologising a former band mate as a ‚legend‘, while throwing in plenty of solos. Synth melodrama. Now that I think of it - my 5 star review for Dark Side of the Moon was wholly negative. I hate this band. Anyway, it’s a really beautiful album. Even, perhaps especially, the solos. Bah. [on the way home from IKEA as the lap steel guitar solo in ‚Shine On… (part 6)‘ plays] The Child: “I don’t want this music.” Me: “Is this not good?” The Child: “No, this is not my favourite.” Me: “What music do you want?” The Child: “I want Bonzo Dog Doh-Dah Band.” 4.5/5

is it objectively fantastic music? yeah, is it also kinda boring? also yeah

Solid!!

Highlights: ALL OF 'EM, BUT WITH AN ASTERISK ONCE AGAIN

This is a great album for letting music wash over you while doing something else. I think it would be a great album if you were doing nothing else as well.

No. 176 Pink Floyd is a very good band. They don't disappoint; this album has good sound. I'm not familiar with their early work, but I liked it.

4/5 https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/pink-floyd/wish-you-were-here/ This guy Pink and I, we just don’t really click. Personally like this more than DSOTM because of the consistency, but the consistency also gets a bit boring sometimes.

Dope

Even though I like other albums by them more than this one, I must admit that this is beautiful and relaxing. I liked it a lot. At times I got bored because it kinda got monotonous but it was still very good. Also, as a paranthesis, fuck Roger Waters.

Great PF album, others are better, but this one is good.

Good

Yeah, who IS pink?

I’m not a big fan of this album, in fact, I think it’s quite overrated. That said, it’s still very good, and I’d struggle to criticise much about it (aside from Welcome to the Machine, which I find to be rather lacklustre). Most of the strengths fans point to here are ones I’d agree with; I just wouldn’t go so far as to join them in calling it one of the greatest albums of all time. Personally, I’ve always found Syd Barrett’s work more exciting and engaging. Overall, a great album, perhaps even a legendary one, but not my favourite Pink Floyd release.

I love me some Floyd

A classic pink floyd album. I enjoyed it.

I didn't get it after the first listen, but after listen two I understood. "Wish You Were Here" is obviously the focal point of this album but it's such a good song, truly one of the best ever, that they get away with the other tracks being a bit unfocused. But as a whole this album works so well and I see why it is such a classic. Top Songs: Wish You Were Here, Have a Cigar

i have unfortunately never bought into the pink floyd hype massively (probably because i haven't listened to them enough) but this is great. listened to the title track a lot years ago, i do really like how varied this album feels but also how consistently good it is

I have had every conceivable opinion on this album at one point or another in my life but I hopefully am now settling on firmly thinking that it is indeed great and I should stop trying to resist albums like this because I'm not a teenager or college Freak anymore, I don't have to be EDGY!!!

Pink Floyd was truly untouchable for a few years, and this is an exceptional piece of work: lush, layered, and trippy, but also deeply sad and cynical. The only mark on WYWH is the indulgence of the final track, which could have made as much impact in half the time if only for greater artistic discipline.

I really enjoy the instrumentals here, it's really calm and evokes many emotions at once especially with its lyrics.

i like the instrument

great album knew this going in the instrumentals are worth it alone.

It’s great but I wish it was more fun

An amazing listen. Of course with Pink Floyd it's heavy music and few lyrics, but the lyrics that are there make you think on them for a while. First listen review would be about a 7.5-8/10. definitely want to listen to this one at least twice more tho.

To be honest, I didn't remember that this album only had five songs and that two of them were over 12 minutes long. I only knew that it included my favorite Pink Floyd song (Whish You Were Here). At first, I thought I wouldn't like it and that it would seem too long, but the truth is, I enjoyed it immensely. I even added the first song (the 13-minute one) to my Spotify playlist. The 8-minute introduction is simply incredible, and that song alone conveys so many emotions. A great album from a great band.

popular stuff, trippy and dreary. good for curling up in a ball on a drizzly grey day

really enjoyed it

Favorite: Wish you were here

kunne godt lide albummet. det var nemt at lytte til, bortset fra støvsugerlyder. kommer nok ikke til at lytte til det igen

Good ol' Prog Rock

Хороший альбом, давно хотела его послушать.

5 songs 40 minutes?? Really? Can we not. It's ok. Yeah I mean great music it's pink Floyd. This is quality shit. Sal was right. It's captivating instrumentals with dreamy vocals. Big fan. If you can hear this you're dying. Why are we in the washing machine. Oh welcome to the microwave I guess. Ok this is actually great. Why am I kinda getting lorde. Could I tell heaven from hell?? Probably not. The real question is heaven or las vegas. Who really knows. Why are there multiple parts to a song. Mr. Pink what are doing. Favourite: Have A Cigar Least favourite: Welcome To The Machine

love it let’s go

Nearly a 5 for me, just dropped a few points on the very long tracks. Probably the most genuine PF album there is.

I'll always have a soft spot for this one but "Shine On..." is just not their best nor should it bookend the album. You can hear the tension between their creative peak and Dark Side of the Moon with the Brechtian mini-operas Roger Waters would concoct for Animals and The Wall, while the also struggle against an industry thats fully burnt them out and longing to know what could have been if Syd hadn't become an acid casualty. It's not their best but even B work from the Floyd gets a solid rating.

Sevdim ama tam benlik değil

Great album - the track wish you were here is a classic

Sounds confusing and mysterious. Are you looking for something? Like the voice part more.4/5

pt 1-5: My only experience of pink floyd before this are some of the popular singles from the band. This track shows another part that i wasnt familiar with. machine: enjoy the vocals and the synth parts, has a modern feel to it 50 years later. All in all the album was a positive experience, could really feel the cultural impact it had on many future releases that ive listened to. 4/5

Great innit

A sprawling, meandering album. I can see why people would both love and hate this.

Joya de álbum, mi primer acercamiento a Pink Floyd.

primo album della lista lessgo e sincero il mio giudizio è un po' influenzato dal fatto che siano i pink floyd che mi fanno pensare a piga. comunque la production mi è piaciuta moltissimo perché è diversa da ciò che ascolto di solito, ma allo stesso tempo ha un sound classico e senza tempo. la canzone che mi è piaciuta di più è stata have a cigar, che mi rocorda un po' west coast di lana. è un album che riascolterei e mmi ha fatto venire voglia di ascoltare di più dei pink floyd.

Previo a escucharlo ya le tengo muchísima expectativa, un pez grande de esta lista. Me es difícil explicar bien qué es lo que siento por esta escucha. No encuentro motivos para decir que no me gustó, pero tampoco para decir que me encantó. Es una maravilla por momentos, muy llevadero (al menos para mí) y, como fanático de los sintetizadores, disfruté muchos momentos. Quizás es un poco polémico, pero siento que Pink Floyd llega a estar sobrevalorado, ya que, si bien me gustó, tampoco creo que sea la maravilla que venden.

Classic!

Espectacular! Invitación a reflexionar, una introspección. Mejor tema: Wish you were here, un clásico que merece el lugar que tiene. Para entender, hay que ver más allá, ponerse en diferentes escenarios y zapatos.
