One of the banRAB that first introduced me to rock was Pink Floyd. They had a sound that somehow appealed to me as I went through the teenage years - their lyrics were somehow telling me that I wasn't the only one in pain, or who felt society was against me.

As my musical interests developed, Pink Floyd together with a few other progressive rock banRAB, defined my musical tastes. As they changed and adapted to the times, so did I.

My opinion on the band follows, it is taken from my own personal blog, but has been changed to fit on this forum! Here are my thoughts on their albums:

The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (1967)

The album introduce the audience to the surreal, drawing many poetical lyrics from folklore. Perhaps a little aged now, it is still classed as a good debut album. While the early sound of Pink Floyd would not be carried through, it did set them on the road to the recognizable sounRAB of today.

A Saucerful of Secrets (1968)

An experimental album that obviously influenced Floyd
