Pink Floyd: Echoes
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
I must admit my ignorance regarding Pink Floyd, as I only own this collection of the band. However, it seems to me that the collection is quite complete, featuring tracks from the 70s up to 1994, and it's very enjoyable. "Echoes," "Comfortably Numb," "Shine On You Crazy Diamond," and "High Hopes," especially with that spectacular final guitar solo... great album!

    As a starting point, it can work... it's a fairly good and complete collection... but to really know Pink Floyd, a simple compilation made just to sell like this isn't enough... The reason is that their early works contain long and erratic suites that can't be contained in a compilation... and then because their concepts like Dark Side were born as homogeneous works meant to be listened to as they were conceived; otherwise, they convey little or nothing... so if you're interested in them, start with an album... and slowly you'll understand what I mean... bye, sorry for the bother :)

    Thanks for the suggestion... which album do you recommend to get started??

    Hi… so… it's not easy to give a definitive suggestion on which "useful" album to start listening to the Floyd… the reason lies in the fact that their early works are highly psychedelic and wonderfully inconsistent… their later works are more formal and accessible at least up until 1975 with Wish You Were Here… so it's up to you to decide whether to start with the debut featuring Syd Barrett, The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (1967)… or from the period with a more classic sound starting from Meddle (1971)… I got to know them through The Wall and The Dark Side of the Moon… I hope I’ve been helpful…

    the piper is from 1967 sorry for the mistake... :) and by the way, for the works of the second part of the career I add that they are "splendidly formal and more accessible"... in short, delving into the musical world of Pink Floyd is full of surprises :) bye
