From Progarchives.com, the ultimate progressive rock music website

You know, this is a great ROCK album, it's not really progressive rock. Stringing a bunch of songs together in a loose concept is not progressive. It's fun and it's a great album, but not prog.

Having said that, if you wanted something prog off this album, you could grab Money. It's in an odd time signature. Any Colour You Like can give you some good spacey prog. Time with the Breath reprise gives you a slight progness due to the oddity of having a reprise. All three songs are very good as well.

Also, very good songs are Breath, On The Run if you can handle some early techno (<---that's a joke), Us and Them, The Great Gig In The Sky and the ending Eclipse. All of these are really good rock songs. Only Brain Damage is the loser song on this album, which falls flat after so many good songs up to that point.

Great rock album (5 star), but not prog, giving it 4 star.
