Preferable Pink-Floyder

Is it:

      DAVID GILMOUR        

Or     

      ROGER WATERS                 

Or    

       NICK MASON

 

Or   

      RICHARD WRIGHT

Or    

       SYD BARRETT

 

I Know that this thread is a bit silly, I was inspired by a similar thread on a Danish Pink Floyd forum in which Gilmour had a remarkable lead, which I personally don't understand, I don’t deny his abilities as a guitarist, but it's difficult to deny that ROGER WATERS is the force to be reckoned with, when talking about Pink Floyd.

I voted Gilmour because without his sound, they would have never made it out of the 60s....altho I loved Water's pre-Wall work, I found TFC to be a real disappointment.  And I've never liked his solo stuff.. but I do love Gilmour's solo albums...

So again, just matter of taste I guess...

waters, because of amused to death and the wall

Gilmour was the driving force of the band, musically

I'd have to say Gilmor, an excellent guitarist and without him they would have never become half of the band they were. Dont get me wrong,  waters and wright are also amazing in thier own respects.( I think waters is the superior lyricist of the band.)

Yeah, Gilmour. No contest.

The Madcap himself...!:

Richard Wright for me - not because I felt sorry for him, just that I happen to love his style

syd is one of my idols. i know its an odd choice but he is just as insane as me! tho i had to go for roger cos i admire the way he put in all the effort to give pink floyd one of the most consistent careers ever! they didnt sell out to pop or continuosly rearrange their line up. roger kept em organised me thinks. and he reli pushed gilmour into songwriting cos gilmour used to rely on roger and during ummagumma, roger start to push him into writing his own songs.

Gilmour is god sitting down playing a guitar occasionally really high!
