Pink Floyd - The Division Bell. Has it really been thirty years?

Cannot believe it's been 30 years! Coming Back to Life is my favorite off of this album. I prefer the live version off of the Pulse album. Almost had the chance to see them in Indianapolis on tour, but tickets sold out.

It was alright, but I'm also one of the oddballs that thinks Momentary Lapse of Reason is the best Pink Floyd album right up with Dark Side of the Moon.

7/12/94 at Soldier Field in Chicago. Easily the best show I’ve seen. I absolutely tripped over that ticket.

Lost For Words encapsulated my life for a time, and Gilmour understood it perfectly. That album helped me through that time and several other unpleasant ones. I couldn't even begin to count the number of times I've listened to it...far more than any other album by anyone. It is as close to perfection as music can be IMO.
Poles Apart is probably my favorite song on there. I think his solo at the end is better than Comfortably Numb's.

This album doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. My favorite is the last track, High Hopes.

Must listen to it again, carefuly.
Big fan of PF. Today, 12 concert recordings from the 1974 tour showed up on my radar, just like the set from 1972 a year or two ago.
Floyd is part of my life’s Top Five Essential Bands. Yes, Led Zep, Genesis and very likely The Who. Shows my age. What, no Beatles? Beatles were built-in. The rest are personal picks.

It has certainly withstood the test of time.
Great music will always be great.

I've been chilling to Pink Floyd the last couple weeks, and can't get enough.

^^^^^^^ ridgerat, check out Billy Sherwood’s supergroups PF cover albums. Very close to the originals but with some extra talent skillfuly added.
From the Wiki
Return to the Dark Side of the Moon (subtitled: A Tribute to Pink Floyd) is a tribute album organised by Billy Sherwood, and released in 2006 on Purple Pyramid. It is a re-creation of Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon, and a sequel to Sherwood's Back Against the Wall, itself a re-creation of Pink Floyd's The Wall.
