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

We are not talking Satch/via virtuoso turf, we are talking...........
Well, read the thread. Extremely well made music that is timeless. Gilmore is in my top 5 favorite guitarists. With Hendrix, having the NO.1 spot  ;)

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

The one thread in getbig history where everyone is in agreement!

You guys are the best!  8)
No...and no...
Frank Zappa





They way I see it barry, this should be a very dynamite show...

Like I said great band but lots of other bands with more playing talent and song writing talet. Early Genesis with Peter Gabriel,  Yes from 72-78 was chalk full of some of the best players on the planet, Mahavishnu was great, Zappa, Weather Report, Led Zep,  and a few more.

Most talented?  :-\ They def. contributed some great songs and their live shows were incredible for their time. If your going to see a show and pay that kinda money the performers should at least blow you away and pink floyd did that visually. Musically, there are way more "talented" groups.

If you've got or can get BBC Radio 6,



tonight they're doing all night Pink Floyd...

...from 12 midnight tonight British Time (7pm Atlantic American Time, 4pm on your West Coast), they're playing all of it.  

Till then (it's now 9:30pm here) they're doing BBC archive recordings, covers and docu's and so forth.  It's rather wonderfully done.



I've got it on.  

Yep, I saw them in Toronto in the 70s or early 80s, I was very very young, like 13 or 14, grade 8 or 9?  can't remember whether I was on acid or mushrooms or what year it was.  I remember dancing in the aisle, ending up at the front and then hugging everyone.

Floyd rules. Great clip with Zane.

I had the pleasure of sitting in the den of Roger Waters home and he picked up an acoustic and started playing Floyd songs
Wow! That must have been awesome.
