Wish you were here

One of the greatest songs of all time, and Pink Floyd's best one. In fact even though Dark Side of the Moon or the Wall are probably their best known, Wish you were here is one of the best albums of all time. When you listen to the<b> album </font></b>and know the history you cannot help but appreciate every aspect of it. Shine on your Crazy Diamond written about Syd Barrett, Have a Cigar about all the BS that labels give new bands (even asking which one is Pink), Welcome to the Machine about how label use the bands and squeeze everything out, Wish you were here about how people cope with life. This<b> album </font></b>from start to finish has so much meaning you get lost in it.

For me this<b> album </font></b>is only slightly better than Fleetwood Mac's Rumors (another great story) Lyrically, musically emotionally these are the types of albums that I cannot get enough of.

I love good Music stories, how bands were named, story's behind songs, albums etc. How about you?

 Like Pink Floyd is named for Pink Anderson and Floyd Council two blues musicians. The name was a spur of the moment decision when another band at the same gig had the same name (tea set)

Have any good band stories?
