I can't talk to Axver about vocalists. He thinks hairy Vikings growling about elves is more OK than this amazing performance.
^ hahahahahah I remember all that. god they suck. I love them but they are so lame.
I'd really like some backup regarding Great Gig in the Sky please. Too much hatred here. I think it's absolutely astonishing, I love the mournful piano and slide guitar and Clare Torry's vocal is like a blinding thundercrack out of the mist. Huge fan.
How is "DOS" an acronym for Dark Side Of The Moon?
When I was younger, I knew a lot of PF fans and no one ever expressed anything but good things for Great Gig. This is actually the first time I've heard such hatred for the song. Many years ago, I dated a lady who was a PF fan too and we used to listen to DOS during our "romantic time". When we got to Great Gig, we'd push the romance into the next gear. Good times!

I'm not entirely sure why I decided to listen to this one, as it could conceivably be left off the list, but it's generally included as a studio album. Very forgettable, but not unpleasant. It works as background music (well, it's a soundtrack, so it should work as background music). Nile Song was my favorite thing here. But yeah, I won't listen to it again.

Are there listenable bootlegs of live Cymbaline out there? Most of the stuff I have tried to hear from that era is barely discernible as live music.
Here's a video! (tw: dailymotion)
