The difference in sound here is hard to convey in words. The shift is so strange that you begin to question whether it indeed is the same artist in charge of both. From the most extreme minimalism with 'delle Sabie's' one-note scale piano experiments to the gorgeously produced art pop of 'cinghiale bianco'. We may have a winner here.
For proof?







hah. The winner by a MILE because one could throw his ENTIRE 70's output into this.  No two albums sounded the same.

He went from traditional prog rock to... this over the course of the 70's

and then from there to the sublime and irresistible L'era del cinghiale bianco.

What an amazing artist. I'd leave Raff in a heartbeat for him...LOL

I always take note of what journalists have to sayLOL

Meddle - DSOTM is a much bigger transition after which there was an evolution but not much transition (imo)

Good one, Steve. How about Mel Torme: Christmas Songs to Mel Torme: Songs of the Black Death?

^^ Don't forget about 'Obscured by Clouds', there were already some hints of DSOTM in it... and that album is awesome Smile

Pretty much any 2 consecutive Floyd albums would have a bigger change than DSOTM to WYWH

Selling England By The Pound to The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway

The Lamb have a more rock, modern sound. Selling is more medieval and soft.
