Extremely skilled guitarist and vocalist. On an Island is one of the best albums, IMO.

But it's still pretty damn solid and it is underrated, but not as much as Animals, that's criminally underrated.

so true. i dont understand why dsotm for example is considered so staple pink floyd when animals is just as good.

Animals is way better imo. Besides Time I find dsotm to be overrated.

Everybody here seems to love DSOTM and Animals, but I am the only one who loves Wish You Were Here? I mean is my #2 fav album of all time (Vangelis' Blade Runner soundtrack is the first one).

rogar waters is their best and worst. love his pre-the wall stuff. the wall and final cut are damn boring. but it doesnt matter ... between saucer and animals pretty much the best team in music ever ...

Yes. I think Wish You Were Here is my favorite PF, because Gilmour just shines so much on this album, moreso than any album, I feel. At least, guitar wise. It seems to be the most guitar/riff driven album, at least in the Roger Waters period.

Although I liked the Roger Waters side of Pink Floyd the most I must admit Gilmour is the man. His voice is so soothing and his guitar skills are phenominal.
