Product Description: For all that menacing, hatchet-happy growl at the beginning of Meddle's opener, "One of These Days," Pink Floyd really weren't about to "cut you into little pieces." Meddle did, however, show that the reigning British monarchs of 1970s-era psychedelia could rip into galloping jams. It also showed what its predecessor, Atom Heart Mother, promised--that the band could excel in long, breathtaking suites that revealed strains of late-classical music, Sun Ra-inspired space explorations, and a patchwork approach to colliding sounds that together took on acid-drenched proportions. And if all that isn't enough, "San Tropez" revealed a playful side of the band, playing footsy with loungy jazz and having good fun in the process. --Andrew Bartlett

5 stars "One of these Days.."
I'm going to cut you to little pieces!." What, did you think I was going to say "Alice"? Haha. Well, unlike most of the reviewers, I just got this 2 weeks ago, and I haven't stopped listening to it. Matter of fact, I just started a minute ago. People in general should have this, Piper, Saucerful, AHM, Dark Side, WYWH, Animals and the Wall in their collection. You don't come across albums this good anymore, I mean anything post 1999 needs a couple of listens, except Maiden and Priest that is. I love the spaced out feeling of Pillow in the Wind and Fearless. Great writing musically and lyrically. Not one bad tune, even Seamus is good. Yes, I like Seamus and I don't care what everyone else says, it's still a good listen.
Then we get to the song that defines this album, and eventually Pink Floyd's future. "Echoes" the 23 and a half minute masterpiece that wore out the other side of the Vinyl LP. Honestly, how many people have bought this physically or electronically(iTunes) just for Echoes. It's a shame the greatest hits is missing 7 minutes. I think you need the entire song to truly appreciate it. Well, check it out here, or on iTunes, but buy it physically, because you'll like it so much, that you can't live without it. That and what happens if you forget to back everything up, and the computer crashes, now you're screwed. So do yourself a favor, and get it today. Without Meddle, we don't have Dark Side of the Moon. Hell, get both of them at once.


4 stars You Pay the Piper But It's Still Not More
If it wasn't for "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" and "More", "Meddle" would be the greatest Pink Floyd album ever. 'Seamus', the one throwaway song on the album, still beats 'Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast' from "Atom Heart Mother" as a filler track by being merely inconsequential rather than annoying....

I was a Floyd fan quite a while before "Dark Side of the Moon" and still see that album as a commercial sell-out rather than the masterpiece so many people hold it to be. Of the post-"Dark Side" albums, only "Wish You Were Here" has any spark of the old Floyd (subject matter perhaps?)

Nothing in the Floyd catalog comes close to "Piper At the Gates of Dawn" for sheer invention and originality. Nothing. All else is a result of trickle down effect from exposure to Syd's pure genius. The quality of music declines (more or less) with the passage of time....

I rank Pink Floyd's albums as follows: 1) "Piper At the Gates of Dawn" 10) "More" 11) "Meddle" 12) "Atom Heart Mother" 13) "Ummagumma" 14) "A Saucerful of Secrets" 15) "Wish You Were Here" 16) "Obscured By Clouds"... 23) "Animals" [On the strength of 'Dogs'] 24) "The Dark Side of the Moon" 25) "A Momentary Lapse of Reason" 26) "The Wall" 27) "The Division Bell"... 159) "The Final Cut".

When one disregards the aforementioned 'Seamus' the music on "Meddle" is pretty darned good, with 'Echoes' being, IMO, a masterpiece. Highly recommended (But get "Piper" and "More" first)!


1 stars certainly the barfing stock
This atrocious cd is most certainly one of the barfing stock - what a despicable joke. No metal can ruin this more than (s)CRAP metal, hahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
