Floyd's second best, only behind Dark Side of the Moon. The album is both emotional and beautiful at times, with some excellent keyboard work and great vocals all around.

For me is the best Pink Floyd album, and nearly the best album ever. Shine On You Crazy Diamond is a masterpiece, just like Have A Cigar, and Wish You Were Here.

Their best album, and one of the absolute greatest albums of all time. Amazing from start to finish.

So much better than 'Dark side of the moon' and 'Pipers...' put together! Shine On You Crazy Diamond is a nice if little too long. The next 3 songs are all good. I got the most from Wish You Were Here personally.

In my opinion, The Dark Side of the Moon just has the right amount of everything. The lyrics are clever, sometimes touching, and the layers of sounds are brilliant! As for this album, it's probably my second favorite Floyd album. Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Parts 1 & 2), Welcome to the Machine, and Have a Cigar all definitely pop out. Wish You Were Here is alright, but it gets old after awhile.

@Applerill: Not only I think this is the best Pink Floyd Album, but also I would also consider Animals and Piper as the best record released by the band. However, my fave tracks are Have a Cigar and Wish you Were Here.

As a hardcore Pink Floyd fan (I have all of their studio albums, including the soundtracks) I have to honestly say that this is one of my least favorites from them, to the point where I prefer both Animals and Piper over it. It isn't necessarily bad, but it just was too "jazzy" for me. Also, while "Welcome to the Machine" and "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" were certainly engaging at first, they got old pretty fast.

If you're winding down from a heavy night out (or in) with friends, have had a skinful or a bit too much to smoke, and have otherwise lost the ability or will to communicate... this should be on the stereo pronto... the "timeless" nature of the music is like an aural alkaseltzer- light fingers massage your brain, and for a little while, (which always seems longer than the actual running time of the album) the clock stops, and you can drift away. hhmmmmm, chocolate.
