| Making a Fake Floyd Album From Solo Cuts So what songs would you pick to complete this bogus album? My list: First of all, Rick's Along the Shoreline. In my opinion, this is THE solo cut that resembles Floyd the most. No song, not Roger's or Dave's, beats it when it comes to possibly fitting as a Floyd song. Also Night of a Thousand Furry Toys, and a hard choice between either Reaching For the Rail or Anthony Moore's Woman of Custom. Also fitting would be any of the songs on Wet Dream that have lyrics, except "Holiday" which I don't think would fit. And for an opening instrumental I think Mediterranean C would work fair enough. Now we're gonna need Roger's input and outlook on life. For a "Money"/"Have a Cigar"-like rocker, the title song Pros and Cons of HitchHiking is the ticket. Also fitting would be Every Stranger's Eyes and The Tide is Turning. Also up to Floyd par would be Perfect Sense Parts 1 and 2 and the title song Amused To Death. Also, Each Small Candle, Towers of Faith, and *definitely* Lost Boys Calling. For Dave, his closest Floyd cuts would be Ken Baker's There's No Way Out of Here and Short and Sweet. As for About Face, it's hard to pick; some of the songs are really dated like Radio KAOS but some are very very good like the Townshend collab. All Lovers Are Deranged. So, in summation: Along the Shoreline Night of a Thousand Furry Toys Reaching For the Rail Against All Odds Summer Elegy Pink's Song Mediterranean C The Pros and Cons of HitchHiking Every Stranger's Eyes The Tide is Turning (After Live Aid) Perfect Sense 1&2 Amused To Death Lost Boys Calling Each Small Candle Towers of Faith There's No Way Out of Here Short and Sweet All Lovers Are Deranged Yes, put together I think this would pass as a Floyd-sounding album to someone who doesn't know any better. Your lists? |

| Re: Making a Fake Floyd Album From Solo Cuts Hmm...I don't know any of those songs, but I can imagine it would be the worst Floyd album ever. |

| Re: Making a Fake Floyd Album From Solo Cuts Yes it would be the weakest Floyd album...but leave that to those of us who have actually *know* the songs to make that judgement. |

| Re: Making a Fake Floyd Album From Solo Cuts I have no problem with cariacature. For Nick, I'd choose Siam, off of Fictitious Sports. "They got lots of opium and lapsang souchong" goes well with the drug stereotype. |

| Re: Making a Fake Floyd Album From Solo Cuts I'm really into solo Floyd for the moment. "Bob Dylan Blues", "Each Small Candle", "Breakthrough" and "Mihalis" is the four songs I've been listening to most the last weeks. And every day I'm reading "Inside Out". |
