Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

Wish You Were Here

Wish You Were Here is my favorite Pink Floyd album. From 1975, it is a very different sounding album from their others. The five songs here are "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" (Parts 1-5), "Welcome to the Machine", "Have a Cigar", "Wish You Were Here", and "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" (Parts 6-9). This is a must hear album for Pink Floyd fans. I also like their Is There Anybody Out There? The Wall Live 1980–81 and Echoes: The Best of Pink Floyd albums.
