The most important thing is that you've discovered the Floyd. Do you have a Favorite Album To Date? PS> Is that your dog with what looks like a Cigar in its' mouth?
That probably the first time the pup heard, "Come in here dear boy, have a cigar".
Pink Floyd - Who's your favorite: Gilmour or Waters

I'm sorry we got off track. I'm a huge Pink Floyd fan, have been for a long time. I really don't break it down into bits and pieces, I take the whole enchilada, past,present and future(?). I like both Roger's work as well as David's work, on their own merits, regardless of personality defects or whatever, that crap means nothing to me. I'll leave it at that.
Good kiss and make up you both are nice guy's
Oh and I'm a bigger fan, you all will never get close to my PF record collection
It's all good darkblue94, and I 100 % respect your last statement. I love Waters work in Floyd as well, the Wall is obe of my favorites, and that is 80% Waters. I've always leaned towards Gilmour, probably because I'm a guitarist also. He can really make sweet sounds. Anyway, no hard feelings. I'm sorry also that we got off on the wrong foot.

I was fortunate enough to see them both this year. DG at the Hollywood Bowl, and RW at Desert Trip. DG was awesome he played PF and solo stuff, his band was fantastic, RW show had a huge scale both visually and sonically and he was excellent, but he seems to be a little full of himself. He stuck to his PF music which is OK with me. Both were well worth the money. I am looking forward to seeing RW again this summer. I hope DG makes another US tour.

"These go to 11"
I very much agree with almost all of this, especially the first sentence. For me it's the amalgam of Waters and Gilmour that defined the best of Pink Floyd.
I too prefer the Gilmour solo work over Waters'; however I'm not a great fan of Gilmour's solo albums and I can't listen to Waters'. I think Gilmour's best was his first.
As for the "Final Cut", I didn't dig it at first, but upon subsequent listens many years later I think it is quite a good album. I appreciate the storyline more. I think without Gilmour's reluctant contribution to the album it would likely be, to me, unlistenable. I don't own any Floyd since "Final Cut".

Although I voted for Gilmour, I think the Gilmour/Waters combo should be an option.

I'm a huge PF fan, but for the most part, I really don't like the "Syd" era of PF. Too goofy/acid trip for my taste.

I was beginning to think that I was the only one that thought that way.

I feel exactly the same. I LOVE Pink Floyd but I don't care for the Syd Barrett era stuff at all.
