Search - Pink Floyd :: Wish You Were Here-25th Anniversary

Stick with the original

(3 out of 5 stars)

"The three star rating is for sound quality only (5 stars obviously for music). I spent $30 on this cd hoping for something in quality along the lines of the impossible to find gold discs. Based on everyone's recommendations, I assumed this would be a good choice. Wrong! I have a high end system and after playing both the original release and this copy side by side several times, I am unable to notice a significant difference (if any). ..."

Best Album/CD of All Time

Arthur J. | Hollywood, FL USA | 07/07/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have thousands of recordings (both vinyl & CD) and there isn't a single one which I and my wife have consistenly listented to time and time again and still love it just as much as the first time. We must have heard it by now hundreds of times and the music on it never fails to amaze with its power and elegance. I have every album the band ever recorded and I like them all, even the earlier stuff with Syd Barrett which a lot of people consider too weird. However, we both consider this not only BY FAR the best album Pink Floyd ever did, it's the best recording of all time. Underrated by far, it stands above Dark Side of the Moon, The Wall and other great albums. I can't say enough about how much we both love this music!!!"

Pink Floyd's Most Underrated Album

Philip Tsatsas | 07/04/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Wish You Were Here is certainly one of the most fantastic but little recognized albums out there. I rate it far above Dark Side of the Moon. It contains so much good stuff: the song "Wish You Were Here," the awesome psychedelic instrumentals of "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" and other great tracks. This album is classic Pink Floyd. Anyone who enjoys their music should truly appreciate it."
