1. Dark Side Of The Moon - in my top 3 of all time favorites albums
2. Wish You Were Here - a great album, and Shine On You Crazy Diamond is in my top 3 of all time favorite songs
3. Animals - I'm not a big fan of that album (...yet; maybe it will change someday)

Alike. Except the last sentence, because I'm not sympathizer of Watersism and Animals are its first case.

Waters wrote all of the lyrics for DSOTM and, I believe, WYWH as well. Certainly the former. In fact, following Syd's departure, Waters was the main lyricist for the Floyd.

Never cared much for Animals. Tough call between the remaining two. While Dark Side is consistently great from beginning to end, Wish You Were Here has some real masterpieces in Shine on You Crazy Diamond and Welcome to the Machine. I voted for WYWH, but I could just as easily gone with DSOTM.

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

Voting for Wish You Were Here.
It's usually a vote for Animals with a doubt in my mind, but i haven't listened to it in a while.

Dark - more cohesive and fluid as a unit Wish - More direct and forceful Animals - The most bitter and dishevelled of the three.
I prefer them in this order.

I'm in full agreement with the poll results. Animals>Wish You>>Dark Side. Although all three are 5-star classics.

Though I haven't listened to any of these albums for quite a few years (I still have the three on cassette), Animals has easily been my favourite of these. It was one my favourite rock albums for many years (teenager through 20s). Of my friends who liked Pink Floyd (especially Dark Side of the Moon, Wish you Were Here and The Wall), I was the only one who really liked Animals (as well as Atom Heart Mother). It really clicked with me immediately in a big way. Since getting into a lot of other music, I haven't desired listening to Pink Floyd much, although the pre-Meddle ones get played now and then.

Okay there will never be a truer statement than the following one.
Animals = 3 stars
Dark Side = 4 stars
Wish You Were Here = 5 stars, actually 4.5 stars, but it truncates to 5. |
Actually it truncates to 4 but rounds to 5. WYWH is one of my favorite albums ever.
