I don't form a lot of threads here. When I do, it's usually for a good reason (not liking to cry wolf and all) - people tend to pay more attention to them when they're fewer and further between.
But I digress.
A few weeks ago, my visiting friend put on Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd after smoking some weed. Now the album won't leave my mind. I'm listening to it daily, and I can't get it out. I was only into a little Pink Floyd before this, but it's kind of consuming me, you know?
The music is simple, while having some very progressive elements (if I know prog right..). It's a fantastic concept album with extremely vivid imagery. Words and superlatives fail me when I speak of how much I like (love??) this album.
And please don't write me off as a pot-head raving about stoner music.. because I'm not. The fact that I was baked merely allowed me to concentrate on the music when I first heard it.
I've heard some people mentioning Pink Floyd before, so I figured I could mention it here safely. Some of their earlier stuff doesn't really interest me, and I haven't heard anything past The Wall, but their style and vibe and groove and soul, etc, just.. carries me.
Enough ranting now..but I thought I'd share it with you at the very least.
