Pink Floyd help

[Gawain of Orkeny]

If you want good live Floyd, get "Ummagumma," or a bootleg of the London '72 concert.

But many dont even know that Floyd. Its before Darkside of the Moon . And darkside started the sound most people equate with floyd. The early stuff is really an acid trip. Dont get me wrong I love it. And yes Pulse does have its weak points but it covers most of floyds great songs live. The Live wall concert is also good. Then there are tons of boots available,

Wish You Were Here is the best album, in my opinion.

Same here...though pulse certainantly isn't bad either

Love the boots! I want every pair.

I've found the Floyd bootlegs to be a fantastic journey.

I have an old tape of a Santa Monica concert, '74 I think, where they play Cymbaline and something strange is going on. The song gets very quiet, then stops. Then you hear very loud footsteps followed by a door creaking open. The door closes. More footsteps and another door creaks open. Then closes. Then more footsteps. All the while you can hear the audience laughing. Then a final set of footsteps, another door creaks open, then slams shut very loudly and Cymbaline kicks right back in. The crowd goes berserk. You can hear the guy with the tape recorder laughing hysterically.

I'd love to know what that was all about.

Floyd had lots of those moments.

Thanks guys!
I disagree with you Zorba, I've seen a little bit of Puls, and frankly i thinks its awesome.

@Beirut: Wow! all that information, i now have a long list of albums i want to get ;) What do you think of Delicate sound of thunder? have you heard it?

[Reverend Joe]

Nobody ever agrees with me.

Have I heard it? Look who you're talking to.

I have the CD, the video, and I saw them live twice doing the tour back around '87. The first show at the Montreal Forum was astounding. 20th row from the stage, dead center. Paid about triple price from a scalper, $500 for four seats. Worth every penny.

I'm a complete Floyadphile. I like all their stuff.

Before you go buying some more esoteric stuff, I'd get DSOTM, WYWH and Animals (My personal favourite-at the moment, at least). You can't really call yourself a Floydophile if you don't own those.

For live Floyd, I myself have ripped the soundtrack of the Pompeii DVD to Ogg, and put it on my Portable Media Player. A lot of the bootlegs are very good, but it can be tricky tracking some of them down.
