Pink Floyd




Pink floyd was way ahead of their time in rock music, they were one of the most influental psychedelic rock bands of all time. The band was formed in the 60`s with their debut album "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" that came out (1967). Pink floyd has sold over 200 millions albums worldwide... The original members of the band are : Roger waters, Nick Mason, Richard Wright and Syd Barrett. They we`re all students at university. Guitarist and vocalist David Gilmour later joined the band in 1968 as the fifth member, eventually replacing Syd Barrett...

Pink floyd went on to make : A Saucerful of Secrets, Ummagumma, Atom Heart Mother and Meddle. These albums are considered to be the vintage pink floyd sound, in which the band became experimenting with different sounds and a new approach to writing their music. In these albums, pink floyd's style changes slightly from psychedelic to progressive rock.

Moving on, Pink floyd's giant success came threw their next four albums, The Dark Side of the Moon (My personal favorite), Wish You Were Here, Animals and The Wall.

  1. I think classic rock is pretty good. It's calming and good to listen to. Hope other people comment on it.
