This is a cool ranking. The album, “Endless River” is kind of like an endless river meandering in ambience, chill and adult essence. The album, “Ummagumma” is a lower rank, when ranked without its live disc. The album, “Animals” is my top ranked Pink Floyd album too.
1. The Wall 2. Animals 3. Wish You Were Here 4. The Final Cut 5. Atom Heart Mother 6. A Saucerful of Secrets 7. Meddle 8. The Division Bell 9. A Momentary Lapse of Reason 10. The Dark Side of the Moon 11. The Piper at the Gates of Dawn 12. Ummagumma 13. More 14. Obscured by Clouds 15. The Endless S**t
I am just a new boy. Let’s see here The Wall is just a little too uneven for me. And rushed. I like your list, and you don’t feel obligated to put DSOTM at the top. Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?
@@coachplyoguy2637 Dark Side is overrated. It's not a bad album, it's just overrated. The production is good but the approach is not really progressive. On the Run is experimental but other than that it's basically a blues rock record. The Wall is exceptional, it's anxious and eerie. So The Final Cut is. I like interesting things. Music that everybody likes is boring.
It's the first not so obvious top 15 I've seen. You seem to lean into the more obscure albums which is refreshing. You can almost guess other fans lists which is fine but not really inspiring. Good for you Sir. I enjoyed this.
Interesting selection. I can't say that I agree with your choices but then, we are all different. However, I'll never understand putting 'Piper at the Gates of Dawn' over 'Dark Side of the Moon'! Jeeez! BTW...totally agree with you on 'Animals'.
Love every floyd album ,except the endless drivel. Momentary would be my second last,but still love it. 1.Animals 2.Dsotm. 3.Ummagumma Floyd are so personal that everyones rankings are diffferent. Good vid,i enjoyed it.
Almost forgot to drop my ranking of the 15 Pink Floyd studio albums, starting with my FAVOURITE to LEAST FAVOURITE: 1 - The Dark Side Of The Moon (i think it's dumb that Roger is recording this masterpiece, completely pointless but Roger will be Roger) 2 - Wish You Were Here 3 - Atom Heart Mother 4 - Animals 5 - The Wall (favourite song is Nobody Home, but the whole album is great) 6 - Meddle 7 - Ummagumma (I realise how controversial it is to rank Ummagumma this high but what can I say? I love it, i listen to it all the time) 8 - More 9 - A Saucerful Of Secrets 10 - The Final Cut (my favourite songs are Your Possible Pasts, Tigers Broke, Post-War, Not Now John and Southampton Docks) 11 - The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn 12 - Obscured By Clouds 13 - The Division Bell 14 - The Endless River 15 - A Momentary Lapse Of Reason
@@coachplyoguy2637 got a bag with a toothbrush and comb in! Man, such a great song!!! I'm actually seeing Roger Waters in concert here in England this summer coming. I'm excited but the sh** storm that's exploded in recent days, Poll's tweet, Roger's comments on Ukraine war has kinda put a damper on my parade but f**k! I mean... it's pretty hard to ignore but I will go to this concert and enjoy the music.
More is a tricky one. About half of the album is “conventional” rock music and the rest of it is movie soundtrack. It belongs in the bottom quartile of Pink Floyd albums. And you may be right perhaps it doesn’t belong at all.
1. Atom Heart Mother 2 Ummagumma (both very corageous albums, experimental, new and frish, out of the grid, not for the masses) 3. The Final Cut (antiwar tales, misanthropic, a bridge between the shores of the past and the modern world - era Thatcher/Reagan).
My ranking: 1:Animals(I love Animal Farm, and the songs are just amazing, fantastic lyrics. Abd in "sheep" the lyrics are just insane) 2:The Dark Side of the Moon(Have nothing to say, just a masterpiece) 3:The Wall(Comfortably Numb and Run like Hell carried the album to 3rd place) 4:The Division Bell(I'm a fan of Gilmour's work, so that's why it is so high, and of course, it's soundstracks are amazing, my favorite one it's High hopes) 5:Atom Hear Mother(I think that orchestra made this album amazing) 6:A Momentary Lapse of Reason(I listened it a lot in my childhood, so it's just fantastic to my ears) 7:Wish You Were Here 8:Meddle 9:A Saucerful of Secrets(For some reson, my favorite song is Corporal Clegg) 10:Obscured by Clouds 11:Ummagumma 12:The Final Cut 13:Endless River 14:The Piper at the Gates of Down 15:More(I can't hear this albums, it's so tedious)
@@coachplyoguy2637 Well, WYWH so low it's what is impressive in my ranking. I love Shine on you crazy diamond and Welcome to the machine, I like Have a Cigar, and dislike WYWH music. What makes it so low it's propably my opinion and my music taste, because it's an incredible album
Division Bell, Laps of Reason you under-rated. Laps of Reason grows on one after a number of listens. I liked Laps less on LP, but the CD is more alive sounding. Adam Mother should have been low on the list.
9:33 - you mentioned about losing something and then you found your Alice in Chains disc! Yes I've lost The Dark Tower books by Stephen King which I've read over and over again (You can't just go out and buy new Dark Tower books, you just want your tattered old Dark Tower books know what I mean? I don't want new ones, I want MY ones) but yeah, it quickly came apparent that my dad threw my Dark Tower books away although he won't admit it, I didn't talk to my dad for 6 months after, that's life I guess
I know exactly what you mean! I have been looking for my Dirt CD since 2008. I had it at work and I thought somebody took it. The whole time I kept the empty jewel case on my shelf, and I even replaced it with a used copy. Well, there is was inside The Final Cut jewel case stacked on top of The Final Cut CD. It truly was a shock to me when when I discovered it on Sunday. Now I have two copies. LOL. I hope you are able to recover your lost The Dark Tower books. Best of luck and than you for viewing.
Those two albums you mentioned are entry-level, elementary Pink Floyd. They’re fine, even great, albums but over exposure due to modern rock radio. A bit too conventional, too.
The Wall has a cringe factor that drops it for me. The songs are good. And I don’t like listening to it after the show must go on. It’s too long. So is Amused to Death for that matter.
I can't argue with someone who has Animals at 1 and WYWH at 2. Top Five ends with Piper DSOTM and Obscured by Clouds. I'm one of those people who puts Endless River last, then Momentary Lapse Division Bell and Final Cut. They just don't say Pink Floyd to me.
Thanks for listening. I get what you’re saying with Pink Floyd 1983 and onwards. Shame on Gilmour for tanking with The Final Cut. And the other 3 albums you mentioned miss Waters’s cynical, angry songwriting. Just think we could have another 40 years of Pink Floyd albums with Waters had they just gotten along better and been more collaborative with one another.
Didnt watch video at all, but as usual the final cut is way down, i think its a magnificent album, almost top 3 for me, not one bad track on it, the 'not a barrell of laughs' atmosphere 2 it puts a lot of people off it
People who rank an artist’s discography who weren’t even born at the time of the artists peak are always going to give greatly flawed appraisals especially this guy on his Pink Floyd ranking..., no idea especially when he states Saucerful rankes higher than Piper..., seriously funny!
Based on that line of thinking it’s an amazing accomplishment that I’m even alive considering I’m not allowed to rank or comprehend things that predate me. I’m so deeply flawed. How can I determine what’s best for me? How could I understand which foods I like since most of food I consume predates me? How do I know that I like turkey better than chicken OR Powerade better than Gatorade since they all predate my very existence? I’ve been listening to Piper at the Gates of Dawn and Saucerful of Secrets since ’95. I think I should have figured out by now which one I prefer over the other. 28 years seems like enough time. You misspelled ranks, and you also have a long, run on sentence.
From best to worst 1)Animals 2) Wish You Were Here 3) Dark Side of the Moon 4) Meddle 5) The Wall 6) Atom Heart Mother 7) David Gilmour First Solo 8) A Saucerful of Secrets 9) Ummagumma 10) More and Obscure by Clouds....the other albums are rubbish and don't deserve to be posted on a best or worst lists because either Waters was gone or the mercantilism of the business made the remaining members put up music that is lacking cohesion. You can say whatever you want about Waters but he was the main composer of the band.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS It is isn't it....matter of fact, I have never, ever been able to listen the album entirely. Whenever I put it on, I feel like it is a Waters solo album....it's first before even The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking. It is an album as bad as whatever the three others put out after he quit.
@@miraposajehano4309 sorry I accidentally deleted your comment. I promise it was unintentional. I should never try to type while laying down My fingers are too fat! You criticisms of The Final Cut are valid. But like you said everybody has their own opinions including Roger Waters. Unfortunately, he has earned the right to produce the kind of albums that he wants to including TFC. He was quite torqued off about Margaret Thatcher at the time for starting a war in the Falkland Islands. So if he wants to spend time making that kind of album that’s up to him. I kind of like it. It’s not for everybody. Also , nobody pointed a gun to Mason and Gilmours heads to make them record it. If they had more integrity they would have quit or written better material.
@miraposajehano4309. here's your deleted comment. Sorry about that. I fetched it from gmail. Miraposa Jehano Coach PlyoGuy I have listen to your suggestion and I am afraid my criticism of this particular album stands. Its a terrible Roger Waters album. He sings all the lyrics, he composed all the songs...Gilmour profoundly dislike the material, the songs were leftover from the Wall. Like he said «if they weren't good enough for The Wall, why would they be good now? But Gilmour being Gilmour, a guitar player first and a composer by accident, he didn't have any material to proposed. The album is terrible, it's a rock star ego trip to the psychiatrist who's complaining about war and politics. We are quite far from the philosophical lyrics from both Dark Side and Wish you were here. How can a guy that is literaly sitting on millions of dollars complains about the state of the world? Artists can't tell people what to think...they can suggest it through songs, paintings, play or whatever form you choose to express yourself but you do not know who your fans are? They might be moslems, catholics, jewish, black, hispano or Chinese ....I mean there's a saying that goes like this: you can't please everybody and your daddy at the time...if you're an artist, stay the f away from opinions....opinions are like AO, we all have one.
The Final Cut - in which champagne socialist himself, Roger Waters, mumbles, moans and screeches over some instrumentals left over from The Wall sessions. On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd give it a NO. Easily one of the worst albums ever from an established act....
David Gilmour is the ultimate hypocrite however - he moans about Roger using left over stuff from The Wall, and then does the exact same thing with Endless River, which is largely made up of stuff left over from years before. At least Waters has the decency to come up with original lyrics and concept.
