Best Floyd to listen to in the Dark and see things to...?

Anyone have an opinion? Personally, I strongly believe Dark Side is the by far best to hallucinate to...though I could just be weird. But God forbid you fall asleep to anything by Floyd...that's quite a trip...

I like Echoes. Sometimes i play it in the dark, with some candles around, when there's a storm. Don't ask guys...

Nah pedge, I know exactly waht you mean, its the best thing in the whole world...
so calm yet powerful and disturbing

cheers

Actually Pedge, that's pretty cool. I suggest listening to the live disc of UmmaGumma though. Saucerful and Axe are great that way.

a lot of the pre-dark side live stuff is good.

Yeah, Saucerful and Echoes are great for storms with the lights out, personally I've always thought of Echoes as a ghost story-telling song, especially when it gets real eerie like.

Phew! I knew you guys would understand :smile:

I especially like the part where around the 13 min mark or so, were you only here wailing and distant weird sounds. Then all of a sudden you can hear Dave's guitar starting to siff through, then Nick comes out with the cymbols...ahhh...amazing stuff!!

Careful With That Axe, Eugene is a good song to trip.

I like the part where the "darkness" first starts to clear, where that first B-minor filters back in through all that wild noise.

Sometimes it's so beautiful--both the sound of it and the light I imagine--that I am moved to tears.

well you all are going to laught but i like piper at the gates, relics, or saurcerful of secrets because i prefer to turn on my colored lights (red and green and yellow) I also like to light up candles and get my strobe light going, a bit wierd I know but that is always fun to sit around talk to friends drink some pints and smoke some doobie too . . .ahhh the life of me

Whales... that wailing is the sound of whales under the ocean. Kind of depressing actually, it always makes me feel lonely. I always think about how large the ocean must be for you to hear the wailing of whales echo everywhere. It kind of makes me feel lonely when I hear that part.
I prefer to put on Piper when I want to hallucinate.

I definitely have to say the live album on ummagumma. The whole album is trippy as hell but especially careful with that axe eugene. Its a good thing to crank that song up extremely loud when you know your neighbors have their windows open. It freaks people out real bad if they don't understand it.

I take it you've done this?

I've only tried it once and the album was DSotM. I started the album when I was going to bed. When On the Run started playing, I had to pull up my sheets real high!(It scared the crap out of me :smile: ) I couldn't remember anything after Money, so that's probably when I fell asleep.

Next time, I'll try something really relaxing in the dark like WYWH.

its amazing how something so beautiful can be soo scary, quite extraordinary if you ask me...

cheers
