I would certainly argue that Pink Floyd is the best band to ever grace planet Earth.

I love Pink Floyd!!! Talk about sensational music......I have a few of their CDs....My top 2 albums would be Another Brick In The Wall and Learning To Fly.

Gilmore and Waters are out of this world....although I wasn't crazy about Sid Barrett....a little too gloomy for me.

I got to see Roger Waters live back in 05......Talk about a performance.....and the back up ladies were over the top.....very much worth the price of admission.

Solid song writing, but the technical abilities do not compare, not in the least. Nirvana were admitted hacks at their instruments.

Pink Floyd is almost objectively one of the most timeless bands of the last 50 years.
There production was on par with todays, they had a movie, they made the first electronica, they pioneered the concept album, they were the music of more than one generation on both sides of the pond, they were the top selling progressive rock band of all time, the along with rush were one of the few bands to have hits in 7/4 time signature(money), they had one of the most tasteful guitarists in the world, and lyrical themes(thewall anyone?) that most people wouldn't even imagine touching. Most importantly they have very very few flaws relative to other big acts(i.e. led zep stole alot of blues music)

Pink Floyd is one of, if not the most, influential band to ever grace a rock 'n roll stage.
Peter Gabriel is also very influential, if you happen to know great music.

I had the pleasure of sitting in the den of Roger Waters home and he picked up an acoustic and started playing Floyd songs

One of the best songs ever imo, truly timeless (no pun intended).

said to be the closest thing to taking drugs without actually taking them, by a rock critic in the 70's.

Solid group. Wish You Were Here and Dark Side of the Moon always in the rotation, somewhere. Last time I saw them, the laser show was awesome. So awesome, that the local airport made them change their light show for the 2nd and 3rd shows.  :D

Great band, but no where near the most talented if we are talking about pure playing ability.
