"Pink" is a former band member from WAY back.

The best Floyd album to listen to is a Japanese 2 track version of Wish You Were Here. All the albums should be listened to, but that one is the best.

I agree with you up to a point on that, I think Momentary Lapse of Reason was way more better though. I can listen to it over and over and not get a one bit tired of it.

Since I got PULSE on dvd 2 years back, I havent been able to put it down. I went to that concert in 94, it was amazing. BTW the character Pink, was fictional, but a lot of the things that happened in the movie were about Syd Barret. The nipple shaving, the need to get high before shows etc. The song Wish You Were Here was written about him, as well as Comfortably Numb.

I love pink floyd. I have the dark side of the moon tatted on my back.

UmmaGumma was always a fav

I've probably spent as much on car audio as I have buying and rebuying The wall and Dark Side of the Moon.

Great Band, old stuff is great. Wish you were here and the Wall. I saw them in 1994 During Division Bell tour, and it was awesome.

"Pink" is just a character, and yes, "The Wall"(album and film) are both incredible. I have both in my CD/DVD collection. As stated above , i have re-bought that album numerous times, the first was on tape in the mid '80s. If you've only heard the album, watching the movie will tie what seams to be random songs into a full piece of work. I only wish there were more artists out there that cared more about the music and production than mainstream acceptance.

dark side of the moon was crazy when i had a nice setup in my car. we used to drive around, smoke a joint and listen to that over and over again.

ah those were the days.

Funny, the song was in the film, but not on the album.

Great stuff.

Ive seen Rodger Waters a few times. great shows.

btw, they put out a reward for the Flying pig they let go during each show. pretty cool to see.

A&E did a documentary and interview with him a while back, it was a pretty good watch.

Back then, and maybe now but i never hear it, albums were composed as albums rather than a bunch of songs. The way that band ties all the songs together and it is a continuous album is a huge plus. You can throw his album in and it is similar to a movie IMO. Pinky is good stuff.

Pink Anderson and Floyd Council were both blues musicians, heavy influence on Syd //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
