Planet P

There was a thing called Plant P.
It was a man called Tony Carey who played all the instruments.
Two album, the firstcalled PLANET P and the second called PINK WORLD.
Two great album by the way, but not PF sound i think....

As has been mentioned in other threads Porcupine Tree are (or were) heavily influenced by Floyd although they seem to have moved away from the Floyd "sound" on their last couple of albums. Well worth checking out as they are an excellent band on their own merits.

Hearing already obese people eating Big Macs and talking bollocks (for the most part) doesn't really appeal, truth be told.

Supertramp is NOTHING like Pink Floyd except they're tired old rockers by now.

CRISES WHAT CRISES is a better album than BREAKFAST IN AMERICA, but the latter is still quite good.

As I remarked elsewhere Kula Shaker are indeed a Floyd influenced band, but no clones at all. Their influences are also indian-psychedelic-Beatles, Deep Purple and a bit of Led Zeppelin and Doors.
They unfortunately split up but both their albums ("K" and "Peasants, Pigs and Astronauts") are highly recommended. The latter was recorded at Gilmour's Astoria Studios using Floyd's instruments and was produced by Bob Ezrin.

Shows how much you know. Big Macs aren't served until 10:30.


Shamrock Shakes are on me.

LOL, so I was not the only one. Only, by my feelings, a lot more than two days has passed. Oh lordy...



Although I do like Supertramp, I do not think they are comparible with Pink Floyd, in my humble opinion. Actually, I cannot come up with any band/artist who comes even close to PF for that matter...
