When I get my turntable cleaned and restored, the first album going on will be, 'Pink Floyd/ Dark Sideof the Moon'
Probably one of the best, if not THE best album ever recorded. 👍👍

Back in the 70's I listened to lots of progressive rock. I remember it was great fun to wait for the next album to come out, sometimes FM radio would play a new track from it, then you'd check the release dates and be at the record store the day it arrived. Take it home, open it up and read all the stuff in it while you listened with headphones so you wouldn't miss anything and it had the special "studio" sound or if it was a live album you could close your eyes and you were there. I first picked up a guitar after hearing the White Album. Been playing ever since.

Good for you Keith! Don't know how I ended up with two copies of the White album, but glad to have them.
Talk about a true classic...that IS one!

Yep, had it on LP, cassette, CD and now on my digital play list.

Saw the Australian cover band at the local casino’s outdoor theater a few years ago and it was awesome.

Yes Hatch! Have seen them on YouTube. Very good!
Brit Floyd is excellent also!

Most of my friends and bandmates loved Pink Floyd. I could never seem to get into it. I preferred Yes and ELP. Also a huge Todd Rundgren fan. Saw him live, he ran out on stage at the intro and took a flip on slippery stage floor. :shock: Went down hard. Played the whole set but his guitar wa so badly knocked out of tune fore the first song it was kinda funny.

I really like them as well. I will add ELO.
The music I enjoy is actually very diverse. I do of course favor the music of the 60's 70's and 80' however not confined to them.
My collection is primarily classic rock, but as the years have gone by, I have built a good CD collection including some blues and soft jazz etc. No room for any rap though. 🙄

I have everything from Paul Whiteman in the 1920's to Western Swing 1930's to big band 1940's to Sun Studio Elvis & Johnny Cash 1950's to Beatles to Alice Cooper to Van Halen to Metallica. Throw in some Baroque, Gene Autry and Sons of the Pioneers and that almost covers it.

That's an awesome collection! 8-)
I cannot imagine a world without music. When I'm down, it can help cheer me up. When I'm wound up, it can help me relax. It brings back memories, etc, etc,etc!
As you stated earlier, just looking at those jackets and reading about them is entertaining.☺
