Its transitional nature makes it one of the most endearing albums in Pink Floyd's discography. And in the last song, you can hear the mind of a great songwriter, Syd Barrett, fragmenting in front of your ears. Scary. [First added to this chart: 02/19/2013]

Wow. 51 albums in common. Great number one. When I went through a spell of depression I played the White Album constantly and it helped me. It was my favourite Beatles album for a long time. Then my favourite was Revolver for years. In the last year Sgt Pepper has become my favourite. I play it all the time. Plenty of other great albums and a few to discover especially Donovan. I am a fellow Scotsman and only know his singles. Now I want to hear his albums. It would be good to see more French music of the 60s apart from Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin. But I suppose you are limited for space.
Tres bien!
