Both 5 star albums, but WYWH pulls it off.

Floyd, and it isn't even vaguely close.

Wish You Were Here is by no means my favourite Floyd album, but it's better than Godbluff (or any other Van der Graaf Generator album) any day of the week.

I voted purely on impulse. I've heard WYWH many many more times than Godbluff, and I still think it's overrated. Godbluff is not.

Porg for short. My love of music doesn't end with prog! Feel free to discuss all sorts of music with me. Odds are I'll give it a chance if I haven't already! :)

Not even vaguely a fair contest for me, as WYWH is not just my favourite Floyd album, but one of my favourite albums of all time.
However, Godbluff would probably beat any other Floyd album. In fact, most VDGG albums would probably beat most Floyd albums, no matter what the permutation. Except one. This one. |

Definitely Godbluff. But if the choice was between Animals and Still Life, I would've picked Pink Floyd.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Interesting contest, given that I rate both WYWH and Godbluff much lower in the discography of these two bands than most other people. There are really lots of PF and VDGG albums I'd prefer to these two. Between the two I give it to Wish You Were Here, just about.

Surely Wish You Were Here.
