Pink Floyd -The Wall
The Wall is not the best album by Pink Floyd, let's be clear. But it is an excellent concept, where the sum of the tracks is far greater than the quality of the individual pieces (excluding a few happy exceptions). The Pink Floyd are now Waters-centric, with all the pros and cons of the context. Nonetheless, it’s a must-have, and especially a must-see: an incredible live show, both the original and the one that Waters is currently touring around the world, perhaps even more beautiful, and which gives new meanings to the more
Pink Floyd -The Final Cut
Probably one of the best solo albums by Roger Waters, with the help of Gilmour on a few tracks.
Ah, is it a Pink Floyd album? And Wright and Mason hardly even play? And Gilmour does three solos, four phrases, five arpeggios and sings on one track?
Uhm... well, it's one of the best solo albums by Roger Waters. Period. more
Pink Floyd -A Momentary Lapse of Reason
The comeback album. The album without Waters. Gilmour bets everything after winning the group's brand in court. He wins with the numbers, but the album, except for 3 or 4 good moments, is forgettable. There is still an attempt to surpass his burdensome past with something different. But only "On The Turning Away," "Terminal Frost," and "Sorrow" hit the mark. In partial defense, Roger Waters didn't do any better with Radio Kaos, which was released almost simultaneously. more
Pink Floyd -More
The Pink Floyd are in search of new forms of expression, new paths to explore. An album (the soundtrack of a non-essential film) that showcases in embryo musical ideas and concepts that will be developed in subsequent albums. A must-have to understand their evolution. more
Pink Floyd -Ummagumma
The live album is seminal. The studio one is interesting, but it demonstrates how the four members perform better when joining forces rather than working on individual ideas in isolation. Special mention goes to "The Grand Vizier's Garden Party," an excellent experimental work by Nick Mason. more
Pink Floyd -Animals
A controversial album, in my opinion underrated. A great performance by the band, an interesting concept (and still relevant), tracks with a much more aggressive tone than their previous works. Worth rediscovering. Highly recommended. more
Pink Floyd -The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn
The album that launched the legend of Pink Floyd. And of Syd Barrett. An incredible album, light-years ahead of what was the international psychedelic production at the time. The Pink Floyd went on to be more, but this album remains timeless. more
Pink Floyd -Wish You Were Here
In my opinion, the masterpiece of Pink Floyd. Less perfect than "The Dark Side of the Moon," but emotionally intense and engaging. more
Pink Floyd -Atom Earth Mother
An album that experiences fluctuating moments. Not everything works perfectly all the time, but the title track suite is majestic. The songs on the B side of the vinyl are good but not essential, except for the experimental Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast. An album that somehow closes the chapter on the past while projecting itself towards the band's mature phase. more
Pink Floyd -The Dark Side Of The Moon
The album that has redefined the sound of music. Perfect in every detail (perhaps even too much). Among the 10 must-have records. more
Pink Floyd
Seminal. Indispensable. Essential. Contemporary music would have been different without them. more
Comes With The Fall -Beyond The Last Light
An album to discover, it gives intense and powerful emotions! more
Osanna
A group with enormous potential ended up in obscurity. The best flute player of little Italy. more
Peter Sellers
The triple Seller seen in Dr. Strangelove is something absolutely fantastic. Unforgettable actor. more
The Moody Blues -On the Threshold of a Dream
The man sets foot on the moon, and the Moody Blues, with a skillful touch, celebrate the event: late-beat melodies and folk moods intertwine with gothic bursts of mellotron and spaceships lost in space-time. They will never return to these heights, yet they remain excellent pop craftsmen. more
Peter Sellers
Immense actor, from the surrealism of Being There to the contagious madness of Hollywood Party. Also an excellent musician, his ukulele performance in Commoner's Crown by Steeleye Span is a fabulous cameo in pop music. more
Ashes Divide -Keep Telling Myself It's Alright
An intimate album, emotionally engaging, sentimental in the highest sense of the term, without ever falling into the cloying. more
Rush -Snakes & Arrows
Absolute class album, confirming a fourth youth for the Canadian trio. Wonderful! more
Mike Oldfield -Ommadawn
In the fertile seclusion of Hergest Ridge, with a remarkable cut-and-paste job, Oldfield creates a shimmering tapestry that continuously shifts between ethereal and oppressive moments, juxtaposing humble folk instruments (harps, bagpipes, pan flutes) with hordes of overdubbed guitars. The crescendo of the first part is memorable, driven by the force of African drums alongside the ritual singing of female voices and the ecstatic dance of the guitar. On Horseback is a final invitation to join him in his madness. more
Gotye
Decent, all things considered. more
