    This is a cool ranking. The album, “Endless River” is kind of like an endless river meandering in ambience, chill and adult essence. The album, “Ummagumma” is a lower rank, when ranked without its live disc. The album, “Animals” is my top ranked Pink Floyd album too.

      I am just a new boy. Let’s see here The Wall is just a little too uneven for me. And rushed. I like your list, and you don’t feel obligated to put DSOTM at the top. Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?

      @@coachplyoguy2637 Dark Side is overrated. It's not a bad album, it's just overrated. The production is good but the approach is not really progressive. On the Run is experimental but other than that it's basically a blues rock record. The Wall is exceptional, it's anxious and eerie. So The Final Cut is. I like interesting things. Music that everybody likes is boring.

    (both very corageous albums, experimental, new and frish, out of the grid, not for the masses)
    3. The Final Cut
    (antiwar tales, misanthropic, a bridge between the shores of the past and the modern world - era Thatcher/Reagan).

    Almost forgot to drop my ranking of the 15 Pink Floyd studio albums, starting with my FAVOURITE to LEAST FAVOURITE:
    1 - The Dark Side Of The Moon (i think it's dumb that Roger is recording this masterpiece, completely pointless but Roger will be Roger)
    2 - Wish You Were Here
    3 - Atom Heart Mother
    4 - Animals
    5 - The Wall (favourite song is Nobody Home, but the whole album is great)
    6 - Meddle
    7 - Ummagumma (I realise how controversial it is to rank Ummagumma this high but what can I say? I love it, i listen to it all the time)
    8 - More
    9 - A Saucerful Of Secrets
    10 - The Final Cut (my favourite songs are Your Possible Pasts, Tigers Broke, Post-War, Not Now John and Southampton Docks)
    11 - The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn
    12 - Obscured By Clouds
    13 - The Division Bell
    14 - The Endless River
    15 - A Momentary Lapse Of Reason

      Thanks for listening. I get what you’re saying with Pink Floyd 1983 and onwards. Shame on Gilmour for tanking with The Final Cut. And the other 3 albums you mentioned miss Waters’s cynical, angry songwriting. Just think we could have another 40 years of Pink Floyd albums with Waters had they just gotten along better and been more collaborative with one another.

    Good ranking. I concur with your high ranking of 'Animals', a super dark LP! (The photo was taken by Peter 'Sleezy' Christopherson of Throbbing Gristle). I would make 'Dark Side' higher. I understand the fatigue people have for Dark Side, we've all heard it thousands of times. Still, it is a great LP from start to finish.

      As for the rankings, Dark Side is like the perfect album. It’s just not the kind of Pink Floyd that I like. Longer songs. Space to explore. They explore on DSOTM on some tracks like Great Gig and Any Color You Like. I guess Breathe and Time, too. I’ve been listening to the Endless River at 3:00 am all week when I can’t sleep. That’s what it’s good for. Put me to sleep

The whole time I kept the empty jewel case on my shelf, and I even replaced it with a used copy. Well, there is was inside The Final Cut jewel case stacked on top of The Final Cut CD. It truly was a shock to me when when I discovered it on Sunday. Now I have two copies. LOL. I hope you are able to recover your lost The Dark Tower books. Best of luck and than you for viewing.

      You criticisms of The Final Cut are valid. But like you said everybody has their own opinions including Roger Waters. Unfortunately, he has earned the right to produce the kind of albums that he wants to including TFC. He was quite torqued off about Margaret Thatcher at the time for starting a war in the Falkland Islands. So if he wants to spend time making that kind of album that’s up to him. I kind of like it. It’s not for everybody.
      Also , nobody pointed a gun to Mason and Gilmours heads to make them record it. If they had more integrity they would have quit or written better material.

      Coach PlyoGuy I have listen to your suggestion and I am afraid my criticism of this particular album stands. Its a terrible Roger Waters album. He sings all the lyrics, he composed all the songs...Gilmour profoundly dislike the material, the songs were leftover from the Wall. Like he said «if they weren't good enough for The Wall, why would they be good now? But Gilmour being Gilmour, a guitar player first and a composer by accident, he didn't have any material to proposed. The album is terrible, it's a rock star ego trip to the psychiatrist who's complaining about war and politics. We are quite far from the philosophical lyrics from both Dark Side and Wish you were here. How can a guy that is literaly sitting on millions of dollars complains about the state of the world? Artists can't tell people what to think...they can suggest it through songs, paintings, play or whatever form you choose to express yourself but you do not know who your fans are? They might be moslems, catholics, jewish, black, hispano or Chinese ....I mean there's a saying that goes like this: you can't please everybody and your daddy at the time...if you're an artist, stay the f away from opinions....opinions are like AO, we all have one.

How can I determine what’s best for me? How could I understand which foods I like since most of food I consume predates me? How do I know that I like turkey better than chicken OR Powerade better than Gatorade since they all predate my very existence? I’ve been listening to Piper at the Gates of Dawn and Saucerful of Secrets since ’95. I think I should have figured out by now which one I prefer over the other. 28 years seems like enough time.

      At least Waters has the decency to come up with original lyrics and concept.
