Title: A very brave album
Review: Personally, I think following up the success of "Darkside of the Moon" with an album of 13 minute songs was a risky move, and i guess it worked considering that this is now thought of as one of Pink Floyd's classics. The album starts with part 1 of "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" This is one of those lengthy, dramatic songs that Pink Floyd's good at doing. From it's classic 4-note intro to it's blues jam to it's haunting lyrics, it's awesome. "Welcome to the Machine" is a song that truly innovated the synthesizer. The noises on this album are still ahead of our time thirty years later. "Have a Cigar" is a great one, with great keybording hormonies. "Wish You Were Here" is the gem of this album. It has so much emotion in the vocals and guitar, that no one could resist this. on top of having a classic intro. The second part of "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" is all about the psychedelic soul organ jam. This is the only difference between part one. The album rocks, frankly.
Is the review positive or negative?
