A bit too many songs from the post Roger Waters era. Meh. The post Waters era has always been so fucking boring to me.

But you list owns Eric's for the simple inclusion of Corporal Clegg and Have a Cigar.

I don't think someone who obsesses over David Gilmour's current pose or action in an avatar would be a bloke. :P

Well Working Class, now that your Floyd journey is complete I now challenge you to make a concise, two disc Pink Floyd collection similar to the Echoes collection.
Keep in mind what compilation collections are created for and throw down some songs you think should best represent Pink Floyd to the average listener.
As you may remember, I myself got a copy of Echoes: The Best Of Pink Floyd just last month and say that the edits that they had to make in the songs were neccessary and that overall, for a two disc set, it is a very good collection. I am sure you have read some of my other opinions a few other places as well.
The aquisition of this collection coupled with a renewed interest in a few of their other albums and the group in general had me playing with some edits of "Shine On You Crazy Diamond..." combining parts I through IV with parts V through IX with no other songs in between. The edit of the songs on Echoes is a fair one and much better than the previous Collection Of Great Dance Songs version.
Which brings me to more nonsense in this post. I also recorded to disc my vinyl copies of Relics and A Collection Of Great Dance Songs separately and then combined a bit to make a disc I call A Collection Of Great Relics.

1. One Of These Days
2. Money (Gilmour remix)
3. Sheep (full version)
4. Cirrus Minor
5. Shine On You Crazy Diamond Part I-IX
6. Another Brick In The Wall, Part 2
7. Careful With That Axe Eugene
8. Biding My Time
9. The Nile Song
10. Arnold Layne

Finally, last weekend I made the Roger Waters compilation that you may have seen me post somewhere else as well (there he goes again with the "as wells" pompous jack_ass, he is)
