Nice nickname :;):

I don't hate A Momentary Lapse of Reason, nor The Division Bell.
Actually, The Division Bell ends up as the second best Floyd album ever, in my list! (First place is DSOTM, obvious).

Actually it is! It's more inventive and was ahead of it's time! I'm not talking about Money of course..

I think you should see the album as 1 long tale/song/whatever, not as seperate songs, but that's just an opinion.

There are about 10 other Floyd albums I like better than AMLOR, but it is not a bad album.

I do consider it more a Dave solo album with TFC as being more of a Roger solo. The two 80s "Floyd" albums...

I consider that the Floyd picked up again with The Division Bell after The Wall, but that's just my opinion.

My favs off AMLOR are YET ANOTHER MOVIE and ONE SLIP.

It's not really a Floyd album. It was made predominantly by Dave with the likes of Jon Carin and Tim Renwick. the production makes it dated and I'd probably say it's the worst but I don't hate it by any means.

i don't hate it either but still, as it has been said before, it's definitely NOT one of their best. imo, it lacks the texture and the profoundness of the other PF albums. still i can listen to it and that says a lot. :;): :laugh:

I definitely agree that it's probably more of a Gilmour solo album (as opposed to TFC being a Waters solo album). It's a middle of the pack Floyd album, imo, which means it's a lot better than most other stuff out there. My favorites are One Slip, Sorrow, On the Turning Away & Learing to Fly.
