Same here. I'm not a big fan of Syd Barrett, either solo or with Pink Floyd, although he's doing well in the poll, having picked up four votes already.
Yep, better than Nick or Rog (I should listen Rog´s first one of these days, it´s long time since I´ve listened it).

Beware, intense boredom can bring risky behavior like drinking, smoking, taking drugs etc

Well, I have heard it before many times and then I thought it was better than Final Cut. And not long time ago Final Cut sounded better than I remembered (so am I coming boring?) But anyway, I am so used to get bored (great music helps that much better than any other you mentioned, great music=not any Rog´s solo).

Not easy. Gilmour and Wright are really floydian, but the best song in David's debut is the one not written by him. The Pros and Cons is far from being a masterpiece and Barrett's is quite a documentary. Fictitious Sports is a great album, but is a Carla Bley's one, so Wet Dreams is my choice. I still like playing Against all odds on classical guitar and Holiday on piano.

I voted for the Wet Dream album too. For some reason, I was half-expecting to hear Phil Collins when I listened to Against All Odds for the first time. Smile

Wanted to vote for Nick Mason's wonderful and courageous album, but I had to go with Barrett.
