What is Less Floyd-like, TFC or TDB?

Something died when Barrett left but something new and even better came out of it. That's how i think of it. Merry christmas everybody btw.

I was going to put my two cents worth on here but I think Doc summed it all up. It is ancient history.

TDB sounds like U2 meets AOR meets Bruce Springsteen in a crack lounge.

TFC sounds like a Waters solo record.

TDB sounds less Floyd like.

isn't TFC the part of the wall that was left out?

I saw Roger say in a Dutch interview that One Of The Few was the only leftover song that was put on TFC.

That makes sense, but there were also various lines from the original (demo) versions of songs from The Wall that were cut and recycled in TFC.

I think The Final Cut would be "more respected" (I don't know how else to put it) by Floyd fans if the band -with Waters- had gone on to do more albums... full band albums. But instead, the "true"(?) Floyd ended on somewhat of a whimper.

It is, however, my favorite Floyd album. It is one of my favorite albums of all time. Even if it had been a Rog solo album, I still would like more than any other Floyd album. Mind you, I still love the band, but this album put me in a place that no album ever had.

I know exactly what you mean man, i always find it hard to name an exact favorite Floydalbum. But it has to be DSOTM, Animals, or TFC.

Animals blew mind my (in a good-non drugged way) when I first heard it a a young lad of 14 back in 78/79. The Wall took me somewhere weird (not complaining), and The Final Cut took my breath away and left me devistated...

Whew!

What do you think of Pros and Cons?

Honestly I haven't listened to it in awhile. I think I will this evening. I think Rog went for the correct choice in using TFC instead of Pros as a Floyd LP. Pros seemed kind of "secondary". It truely seemed like a solo album. It was just that extra little step farther away from Floyd that took the Pink out of it.

I'll give it a good re-listen tonight and think it over again.
