I’ll bet you thought I was finished.

Just when you thought it was safe to resume your empty pathetic lives, here I come, the website on a new smokin’-fast server, with another slice of sheer awesome from the ’90s.
I hope you didn’t really think any “grand tour” of amazingly good music would really be complete without including a sample of Pink Floyd. Because then I’d have to do some more butt-kicking, and to be honest, I can’t keep up with it all.
Now, their best-known work obviously came in earlier decades… but their later oeuvre* is, in my not so humble opinion, of equal or greater quality.
Plus, they put on an absolutely phenomenal live show.
I actually got to see them at the Rose Bowl on their Division Bell tour in 1995 or ’96. It was easily the one of the best concerts I have ever been to.
* It’s French, meaning “body of work,” and I’ll thank you not to snicker at my use of “French” and “work” in the same sentence.
OK, I can’t stand it. I have to include another from Division Bell. It’s just that good.
