How good were Pink Floyd?

Pink Floyd songs ranked from worst to best.

Very good read if you know most of their music. Can't say I agree with all of it.

Saw them at Manchester uni in about 1968. Thought they were brilliant then with the coloured oil/water sandwich slides projected onto the wall and them. Today with digital stuff that effect looks so dated.

I dont dig them enough to read the whole thing but I always really loved Astronomy Domine from the Syd Barret era.
For me their No 1 track.

I remember the BBC played this during the moon landing in 1969

Syd Barratt era they were outstanding.

Post Waters they are embarrassing.

Im not really a fan of Waters myself, I mean he's clever ok but I dont like preachy songwriters who tell me how I should think,I like Syds ethereal lyrics, his visions were remarkable as in songs like See Emily Play and Lucifer Sam, what a shame we lost him.

I've tried my hardest to listen to them, and just don't get it. Some good tracks, but that's it for me.
