Floyd's BEST album is undoubtedly DSOTM, but my favorite one is Meddle.

Yup; they crested with DSOTM, and slipped just a bit with their ode to Syd,
Wish You Were Here. Not much at first, but they changed pretty rapidly after that. I kind of lost interest at about
The Wall.
And
Meddle? That's the Floyd I will always remember... They did a fantastic rendition of
Echoes in Seattle in the early (mid? geez that was awhile ago...) seventies. This is the classic Floyd...
