Excluding anything pre-Meddle, what is your least favorite Pink Floyd Album. I would choose The Final Cut as it is basically leftovers from The Wall. Furthermore, Waters cut Gilmour out of any artistic input on this album leaving the music lifeless and inbalanced with the excessive and preachy lyrics.

I with you on this one. The Final Cut is a HARD listen. So is Ummagumma though, but for different reasons.

The only Pink Floyd albums I have listened to are The Dark Side of the moon and Pulse, which is a live concert. I cannot recommend Pulse highly enough. As for Learning to fly, it is a great, dynamic song.
Pink Floyd, in some ways spiritual fathers of Radiohead, are one of the finest bands ever. The epicness of their music belies their relatively humble demeanour, which is nevertheless evident in the haunting, soaring melodies they created. Those who describe them as just 'stoner music' do them a dis-service. I think that they, and some other bands, deserve to be far more highly regarded by the 'highbrow' than the sometimes fourth rate classical composers that the 'highbrow' admire.

A Momentary Lapse Of Reason.....just not as good as the others. I don't think Pink Floyd has ever released a terrible album, this one just isn't as great to me. The only song from that one that I truly loved was "On The Turning Away"....the rest were decent, that's all...

I completely agree with you. The Final cut was terrible. Rodger Waters was the heart of the band, without him most things fell short. Except for the song Learning to Fly, that is a good song.

The Final Cut was really hard for me to like, but once I started listening to it alot, I fell in love with it. It made me cry. I think the raw emotion of it was what made it really unique to me.
My least favorite, after Meddle era, was The Wall (okay kill me now)
It had alot of great songs (Comfortably Numb, Mother, The Thin Ice) but there were too many gaps inbetween. And it was too depressing and it barely left room for interpetation. I don't want the whole story given to me, I want to fill in some holes myself.

I don't really like any of the post-Waters material. He was the dark center of the band, and they just weren't the same without him.
