Re: Echoes:Best Of

Alright guys, I'm listening to advance copy right now...

Pretty good, though strange to hear songs like See Emily Play segue into The Happiest Days/Another Brick, weird mix!!!

Only a promo copy so I don't have the lovely artwork yet...sounds great, though!

Correct. Sometimes it works to it's advantage but sometimes it sounds a bit awkward!

Re: Echoes:Best Of

i went to billboards website and it had echoes listed at #2. not too bad. sadly the album that beat it was britney spears. why couldn't it have been something worth beating floyd?

I believe your question is an oxymoron.

Re: Echoes:Best Of

BS sales beat Floyd because the ratio of intelligent people to retarted 12 year old kids (who purchase music) is 1:100, thus artists such as BS will be selling many records, and yes, that comment was oximoron.

I have just bought the CD and to let you guys know, sales in Canada are doing great!!

after one store of HMV (which is near me) had received 350 copies, it is now down to just 22 copies since release. I think thats amazing.

And Money blending into Keep Talking was fun. Also Marooned was on for 2 minutes and then Great Gig started. I enjoyed so far, the Hey You remix is just horrible, should have used the one from 80-81 Live Tour.

One.

Re: Echoes:Best Of

The best of album reached number 1 the first week in Norway. I hope that it is one of the ever lasting albums on the best selling boards, remember that Pink Floyd has never actually been a nr. 1 hit one the boards, exceptfrom a couple of times. They have been a band that stayes on the charts for a long time selling a lot of recordes. So I just hope that they are selling wel in the next couple of weeks.
