As soon as I heard he didn't like Dark Side and Wish You Were Here that much I knew he was a die hard Wall fan, the usual pattern.

I'd have to say that the More Soundtrack is my favorite Pink Floyd album. Cymbaline, The Nile Song, and Green Is The Colour are three of their best and most overlooked songs.

I think both Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall are masterpieces. But Dark side of the moon is just something else

Sorry, I am an old Floyd fan. I had all of these albums when I was in my teens and they got wiped when my Dad stacked them in a cardboard box and put them out in a shed at his place on a lake. Needless to say moisture and mold destroyed ALL my record collection to include a very nice complete set of Styx including records under the Wooden Nickel label.. I cried... I was deployed to Korea with the Air Force for a year when this happened. BUT... (My opinion) While Animals and Wish You Were Here are great albums. The creation of Dark Side of the Moon was the point where the band left the almost pure psychedelic and ventured closer towards the sound and performance that put them on the map. Rolling Stone and MTV did not create the wave of success Floyd enjoyed after it's release. MTV wasn't even a thing yet. The album is one I grew up with. I listened to it on cassette tape at night my first years in the service, again before MTV was even a thing. Other guys in the service from all over the country KNEW that album and it was a favorite of theirs as well. I don't read Rolling Stone. I didn't watch MTV very much and I don't recall MTV really pushing Floyd more than say Dire Straights or Duran Duran or any number of more popish bands of the 80s. I was a drummer in a band a long way back and we would get drunk or high or both and talk music with other band members and players and Dark Side was one of the albums we all agreed was one of Floyd's best if not the best. Years later you want to credit Rolling Stone and MTV with success that Floyd earned then that is just the view point of someone NOT from the period in my opinion. The Wall, for me, was a great work but it was also a work of ego. It was according to many articles of the time when Floyd broke up the point where Waters and Gilmore really had a hard time. Waters especially pushed his contribution and demand for credit for his work on that album. Sorry for the book comment but you frivolously giving credit to Dark Side of the Moon to a crap publication like Rolling Stone which ended up spending more time on politics and social issues than music and MTV which started out fairly good but was consumed by crap music and agenda later is worth discussing in depth. It's not your personal favorite album. That's fine and fair. But to discredit and marginalize the impact on rock music that Dark Side had and still has is like saying Sergeant Pepper's of the Beatles and say.. Tommy from the Who were second rate and over hyped by media as well.

Very awesome Pink Floyd collection, they're one of my favorite bands. Love your videos.

Thank you for sharing. Lots of good comments to keep in mind when looking for more of these vinyls. The best to you.

I can't believe you'd like any post Waters Floyd over over Obscured by Clouds. We are at opposite ends of the Pink Floyd spectrum.

great collection Lj .I love PINK FLOYD !!! Happy New Year

Doesn't dig Dark side of the moon he is a fan of The Wall. Classic

Hey LJ! I'm commenting again as myvinyl2. Nice Pink Floyd collection as usual and wonderful explanation of every album. I'm surprised not to see the new album "The Endless River" in this video. I still enjoyed this video. Take care LJ!

One of my favorite bands from the 70's. Although I did not get into their post Waters period I did appreciate Gilmour's solo albums. Seeing them live in 1977 at Boston Garden and 1980's Wall show at Nassau Coliseum spoiled me Lj. You have a collection here that a lot of Pink collectors would like to have for completion. Good to see you back . Happy New Year to the coolest family southwest of Boston~ Rob/Boston

Nice collection. I'll have to post my Floyd collection on vinyl soon. Floyd have always been my favourite. My number 1 favourite Floyd album for me is; Obscured By Clouds. Always been a fan of that album. Followed closely by The Wall. Take care

obscured by clouds is amazing. track #5 is one of my fav floyd songs "whats uh the deal?" weird title but amazing song. also, i love animals. i was only 2 when it came out but would have loved to have seen them on their 1977 tour.

LJ great feature on that Pink Floyd Vinyl collection. I see the big hole in mine I totally agree with you on those early albums. After seeing this I'm definitely looking for more Floyd stuff. Awesome LJ been waiting for this video since you found Division Bell original.

Hello Cousin LJ! Man,you are so damn lucky! Man=O-Man...I sold all my 'Pink Floyd' in the early 90s (I know,I know...)and have been trying to locate 'Ummagumma','Atom Heart...' & 'Meddle' and I just can't locate them (in my area) and if I do...the sellers are asking an arm & a leg for them...***Yes,I have them ALL on CD but damn,I MISS MY VINYL!*** Great video my friend,as always...but this one really touched a cord with me...they were such an important band to me in the early 70s... Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and I shall take this time to wish all the best for the New Year my friend...and please,please continue to do your great videos. They always make my day! Cheers! Ol' Uncle Marty

Great Collection! "The Film" is on my wantlist! Happy New Year! Axel

Very nice video man. Really enjoyed your opinions on your favorite Pink Floyd albums. I love Pink Floyd so much, i saw them on tour for The Wall and MLOR. I hope you have a Happy Newyear! Peace Brian/TVK

I had to see this video !! Great Floyd collection. I did not realize how many Floyd albums I am missing but then again I am not a fan of the Syd era. Now we have had our Floyd album chats, so no need to bring that back up ..lol But yes, Delicate Sound of Thunder is a killer live album. Still love spinning my copy of it. Momentary Lapse of Reason is a great find on vinyl. I never owned that album on vinyl till I joined the VC. Big upgrade from my cassette back in the day. Thanks to the reissue, I now have the Division Bell on vinyl. That was on my radar for a long time. Looks like all you need now it Endless River. Great Floyd collection bro !!

Echoes from Meddle is a bloody masterpiece

Hey Lj, great review, as always!!! Yes, Animals & Wall rule. Thanks for all your cool videos & a HAPPY NEW YEAR! Best regards from Switzerland.......Bruno

Animals is my fav by floyd too.

Great timing with this review - HAD to watch since I just saw El Monstero. There's so much PF I'm not familiar with, so it's great to hear your opinions about their catalog. The Wall was one I found during a Goodwill dig and is my only PF to date, other than what I have on iTunes. The one I found doesn't have the writing on the cover, so it's an earlier pressing. But it was in great shape and sounds perfect! Really cool "pulse" CD!

Nice job sir!!!! I like that you give your personnal take and feeling on these instead of what the general public thinks!! I only have three myself Atom Heart Mother,Meddle and The Wall.

Really great collection ! And so, what do you think of the new delicate sound of thunder release ?

Hey LJ, now we are talking, I'm a huge floyd fan and somewhat of a floyd apologist - i like everything they've done aside from the endless river. I have all those albums + "works" and "more" but minus delicate sound. Its too bad the vinyl boom made their prices ridiculous, but i feel its a bubble that will burst. $30 for used vinyl isn't sustainable. Just like you the wall was my gateway, and am a huge fan of animals w wish you were here my fav. One side note- original press of meddle didn't have the band name or album name on cover. Happy new year, may 2015 bring you more of your vinyl want list!

Dark side of the Moon is still my favourite album of all time, Wish You Were Here is a very very close second for me

Again some nice talking man. Pink Floyd is just magic i remember first time hearing Wish you were hear and i was just so blown away by the emotions in Crazy Diamond still my fav album by them.Couldnt agree more about Dark side of the moon its just too much commercialised but much by the band its self then by the media. Happy New Year may it be better than the last one to all of ya from the VC and your loved ones!

how did you find a pulse album with the blinking light? I bought that cd when it first released and the light when out years ago. However, I wonder if there's away to open it and replace the battery.

loved the video but.......Dark Side is my all time favourite album from any artist tho.....so what you said hurt me deeply 😂

LJ, you nailed it bro! We have the exact same taste in Pink Floyd. My absolute fav is Animals followed by Momentary Lapse of Reason. I really need to find Delecate Sound on vinyl. That was a great concert-I wore out the VHS I had in the early 90s. I also need to find that Wall "the Film" edition. There were so many tracks that were different variations/re-recordings from the movie that are much different than the actual album. I wish I could score an OG copy of Division Bell for $10 like you did.... :)

The Wall is your favorite album because you grew up with it, it is an indelible stamp on your mind, you can't help yourself. It happened to me with Dark Side smoking pot in grade 9 and listening to in over and over. Check out all your stuff, good work. Take care Doug.

Hey Lj, I agree with you on the Syd Barrett period,i only have Relics and though i like it i've never felt need to get anything more. I heard Piper 30 years ago,but have never heard Umma Gumma,More or Saucerful. I have a higher appreciation for Dark Side,it's my fave just as are The Wall and Wish You Were Here.And maybe i should add A Momentary Lapse also. I mentioned this on my most recent video,but i heard Animals 30 years ago and i didn't like it.This year i thought i'd give it another chance and it turned out to be one of the best finds of the year. Also just before christmas i found Delicate Sound Of Thunder.So far i've only listened to it once,but i noticed some of the songs had quite a different versions,extended live workings. Take care and Happy New Year, Pasi

you need to listen to piper at the gates again. it is the greatest composition ever.

Trying to get the wall the film on vinyl how much would I pay on average for a copy

Which pressing do you have of Relics? It does not have the common cover, and I have never seen that alternate cover you have before.

Great collection ! I haven't listened to Animals in years , never liked it too much but I'll put it on today and see what happens!

I just got into PF. I was looking for PF vinyls and my Dad found one in his attic and gave it to me. It is a first pressing Wish You Were Here. Is that a good one to start on?

These collection videos kinda make me sad b/c although I think it's nice that vinyl has been appreciated and embraced by more and more people of late (Thank you, vinyl boom). I can't help but remember finding my copies of these albums and paying no more than $5 a piece ($10 or so for a new copy) And to look now on Amazon that you can't acquire a copy of Meddle for less than $50 blows my mind. Remember Dark Side and The Wall LP's by the bin fulls. Hindsight, huh? I know this topic is pretty played out but it never ceases to amaze me anyway. Great video as always. Keep it at eleven!! \m/

Very impressive collection LJ! I'm still missing many of their albums on vinyl. My all time favorite Pink Floyd album is Wish You Were Here. The documentary of making the album just came from the TV a while ago and it was brilliant too. I really love The Wall as well. I have an original (or very very early) US pressing of it, but I'd like to get an upgrade copy. Would you recommend the recent reissue? At least that's still pretty easy to find in NM condition. :D By the way, I saw the Wall movie as a planetarium show couple of years ago and that really blew my mind. If you ever have a change to see that, make sure not to miss it. It was abso-fucking-lutely amazing! That was an experience that I'll never forget. I enjoy the Division Bell even though many people seem to dislike it. I have it on cassette and it sounds great. I must grab the reissue, but that costs 34,95 € (about 42.5 USD) at my local record store! Anyway, I should try to find more Pink Floyd records online. They are almost impossible to find in the wild for a reasonable price around here. Thanks for sharing your collection LJ! Have a good rest of the year. And even better next year!

After seeing this video I went to the record store and picked up the Division Bell :) Thanks for the much needed inspiration.

Wow, amazing Floyd collection Lj! My favorite Floyd album has to be Wish You Were Here but actually there´s no bad album. I also had my problems with the very early Floyd albums first. Saucerful e.g. is an album you have to grow to. In my case it turned out a fantastic psychy prog-album. Love your Devision Bell 1st press. it gets traded for prices beyond good and bad. I was hoping this might change after the re-release lately but nope - the prices are insaine after all.

What a way to finish up my New Years Day LJ video watching onslaught than with a Pink Floyd Collection video! You just knew DarkSideOfTheZoom was going to tune in to this one! I have to agree with you that the first couple of Floyd records don't really do anything for me, I guess I just really like the influence Gilmour has had on that band. I fluked finding a near mint 1975 "Gigi" cover Japanese pressing of Ummagumma last year, I nearly flipped out! I love the semi-"droste" effect that they did with that cover too. "A pretty widespread reaching reach"? Yeah, I know what you meant! DSOTM overrated? Nah! Well, yeah, maybe! DSOTM, Wish You Were Here, Animals and The Wall are the ones for me...and Division Bell slips in the back door. Your original release of Division Bell is sick! This was a nice tribute for The Floyd bro, I enjoyed this one a lot! Thanks! D.

Hi LJ. Great video. Always good to learn about one of the best bands in the world. I like Pink Floyd, but I only have a couple of their albums (Meddle and DSOTM). I need to get some more. Did you ever try watching the wizard of oz with DSOTM playing at the same time? It's pretty cool. A lot of things match at the beginning of the movie.

I am so jealous look at all those records you have behind you *gasps for air*! the only PF I have so far on vinyl is Meddle, DSOTM, WYWH, Animals and Richard Wright's first solo album Wet Dream. I really want to get my hands on his and Dave Harris's 1984 album Zee Identity but that record is well over $200

Nice video!. I picked up PULSE on vinyl from the now defunct CDnow.com ( I found it funny they sold Vinyl) when I was pre-teen It was the first Floyd Record I had to the chance to buy brand new I can't remember what I paid i'm assuming around 40 dollars, It sounds amazing, and also has an additional track Astronomy Domain and having the book actually being full sized is awesome..... I never thought it would be worth so much, those mid to late 90's records go for a pretty penny and it sits next to my copy of NIN The Fragile vinyl copy... ..

Please react to the Later Years boxset! I'm so curious to see your response to the complete restoration and remix of the delicate sound of thunder concert as well as the new remix of a momentary lapse of reason. You'd be blown away

hey brother lj,awesome pink floyd collection,i have no albums of there on vinyl(all on cassette)but i do plan to get the latest reissues. my favorite albums in no order are 1.meddle 2.wish you were here 3.the wall 4.dark side of the moon 5. atom heart mother. great video catch ya later-jesse

Great Collection.

i have Atom Heart Mother on lp and it a Quadraphonic copy

Awesome video and collection, LJ ! btw My copy of Umba Gumba has the GiGi art work :) Peace and Happy New Year. ~ Shawn

Obscured by clouds deserves another revisiting!!😎🤘

Great comments man...you catch the wall live roger waters recent tours?

Well done sir LJ....Cool to see what you have and your thoughts on the Pink Floyd. I have been on the fence for Endless River but probably will get it ..how can you not right ? anyway would like to see more of these as I value your opinion and reviews. So keep on riding the gravy train bro !! -V

I have this weird EMI Japanese pressing of Meddle on clear blue vinyl. Don't really know what to make of it haha

I've never really been into Pink Floyd, although I never heard them on vinyl so maybe that's the issue. Maybe once I get to hear them on vinyl I will gain an appreciation. Thanks for sharing

Careful with that axe Eugene is the best of the older Floyd.

Where did you get that the wall 1982 soundtrack?

Hey. You mentioned you couldn't find the ummagumma album with the Gigi on the album. It's on the album i have. It's not rare like that is it?

PINK FLOYD “PIPER AT THE GATES OF DAWN” mono Vinyl LP

Where did you get that Pink Floyd shirt?

I have to share this....Yesterday i saw a GREAT Pink Floyd Tribute band. "P-Floyd". Amazing show and great musicians! They had a storyteller between the songs. So you got a great show with awesome music and a "pinkflodhistorian lesson"! What more could you ask for? =) Killer collection brother. Have you picked up David Gilmours latest album yet? I havent heard it, but i will soon! Take care / Freddy

Very nice collection of pink Floyd and recently picked up delicate sound of thunder for 8 Euro bit tatty but a great album...

What about Endless River Lj?Dont you have plans to pick a copy of their last album? :-)

Just found the final cut at a car boot sale in Portugal got it for 4 Euro and wow what a great album I can see how this fits in with the wall I would say even part of the Wall ...

Do you by any chance have a Van Halen and a Rattle collection.

I just have to say, thank you for saying what you did about Dark Side. Don't get me wrong, it's a good album, and Pink Floyd are my favorite band of all time, but I've always preferred Meddle and Animals, while finding Dark Side to be just a tad over-hyped, but that's just my own personal opinion. In any event, awesome collection man!

what about the new one? I am think about getting it.

You’re missing “MORE” from 1969. It came out after A Saucerful of Secrets but before Ummagumma. A Great Pink Floyd album.

Great Pink Floyd collection Lj.. Wow, I pretty much agree with you all the way about these albums. Maybe I rank DSOTM a little higher than you. It's at the 4th spot on my Top 5 Pink Floyd album list. But The Wall is my absolute favorite one. What a monster album that is :) Great to see you man :)

what did you think of 'The Endless River'?

Great review - AGAIN! Funny though, I feel the opposite you do about THE WALL and DSOTM. Was wondering if you collected Gilmore and Waters as well? I think I enjoy DG albums as much, or more than PF. Should give ON AN ISLAND a listen if not already. And top on my list to acquire (vinyl) is PROS AND CONS OF HITCHHIKING.

My all time favorite Pink Floyd album is atom heart mother and the wall is my 2nd favorite

One of the great things about Pink Floyd is the diversity throughout their discography, to me The Wall is at the bottom 3 of their albums, with Wish You Were Here at the very top by a mile.

Do you have a bobby Vinton collecetion or John Denver or Neil diamond

Hi LJ. great vid. I´m a early Pink Floyd fan, but my favorite record probably is Wish.... , and what about solo projects do you own some? If not please check On An Island from Mr. Gilmour. That record it´s close to perfection. Cheers!

Pink floyd piper at the gates of dawn (1967 pressing) is worth around $100 if it's in good shape

Hey LJ. I think Dave Gilmore's issue with Atom heart is the issue of a Re-Issue thus Re-issuing the original issue of Dave Gilmore's issue, I'm speculating of course. The Wall: It's a great album but when I (and I have) become one with the content especially the lyrical content, it is the most depressing and dark album I have ever heard. Old mate Bob G is great in the movie. My fav is the Final Cut, The Gunners Dream Merry New Year To You & Yours LG

The Final Cut is one of my favorites.

Finally somebody putting the Wall as their favorite Pink Floyd album.

I'm a bit surprised, oh mighty Lj, and that is because you have surprisingly "modest" PF collection. I thought you would have like millions of releases by them! You may (or may not) know that I like PF too. My favourite PF album is "Animals" and I'm not sure why but I just love that album. It may be because the cover art and music "go hand in hand". I've seen that Battersea power station in real life a couple of times and it was an impressive sight - even in daylight! I think that "Wish You Were Here" is their best album. I think I agree with you that "Dark Side Of The Moon" is an overrated album but I love to listen to a SACD version of it with multi-channel 5.1 audio mix about once or twice a year. Takes me to "another dimention" if you know what I mean... I got the vinyl copy of "Pulse". I'm still not sure what got me to buy it in the first place when it was new but I'm glad I bought it... Go figure it out! I'd say that after all these years Pink Floyd has let me down once. I'm still very very dissapointed that there's still no multi-channel 5.1 mix of "The Wall". Not even the immersion box set of it has it which is a bit weird because "Wish You Were Here" & "Dark Side Of The Moon" immersion box sets have multi-channel mixes of the album. Well maybe that's just me... Side three of "The Wall" is probably their finest moment, Jarkko / MyVinylBar

Every album Pink Floyd album has been reissued except for PULSE. They all sound fantastic!!!!!!

Yo Lj, Great bunch of Floyd albums there. Our opinions vary quite a bit on what floyd we prefer best but that is just splitting hairs it's all great! Rock on Happy 2015 --- Del

Hey LJ love you videos Your Pink Floyd collection is great.I was wandering if you have any Nazareth?

I miss your videos!

Okay, I have a confession: I'm not a huge fan of Pink Floyd YET. They are a band I really need to get into, but I'm to afraid to. I don't why. Any advise?

I love how honest you are on this video... hahaha

Great video. I was suprised that you didn't like their first two albums (they being two of my favorites) but i guess everybody has different opinions.

That's a nice collection you there LJ haha

The Dark Side of The Moon IS overrated, but I still consider it a great album. Hell, I think it overshadows The Wall (the album, not the movie).

I agree Lj I wasn't a big fan of the earlier Floyd stuff later Floyd was much better. The wall is my absolute favorite.

I like your Pink Floyd shirt

Odly enough, i'm not into the first 3 as well. They are too... psychedelic, for me. But Atom Heart Mother, Meddle and Animals are completely awesome in every possible way.

The Dark Side of the Moon by Stink Floyd, Blashphemer! They are coming for you and are known as Legion. Interesting video for me as our tastes are mirrored,my preferences with the earlier stuff and you with the later. We come at the crossroads with DSOTM. That album stopped me from listening to Pink Floyd, not because I thought it was a bad album, only that it got so much play and praise, and thought they were now "too commercial". (19 year olds can be such snobs) Of course they endured have gone down as one of the greatest bands. Just like with RUSH, I had to pick up the ball again and this past year, I have been picking up everything after Dark Side, including their latest "Endless River". My whole life is just catching up with things. This year I found a real nice copy of Animals, but gave it away to a young Pink Floyd fan who is trying to get a collection going. Talk about giving till it hurts, I just checked discogs, looks like 70 bucks or so. I see I can pick up that Mobile Fidelity on Amazon for 400 dollars! The Pulse with the blinking light..200 bucks. You have some real treasure there.

I love every Pink Floyd album from 1967-1977. The wall is kinda spotty for me, but I do like it. I don’t really care for anything after that.

great band my 4 favorite dark side of the moon animal s the wall wish you were here

Wow you saw the wall when you were 10 years old... Even though it was rated R... Badass

I was just starting to like You and You had to Say That!! Good Luck Pal.

I LOVE PINK FLOYD. Just by watching this video, you really are a Pink Floyd Fan! :)

Relics - the cover always freaked me out. As I get older, The Wall is really my favorite album from them (my 20s it was Meddle). I stop at The Final Cut with Floyd... for me, no Waters, no Floyd.

Can you do an AC/DC collection video
