Also, ALWAYS voted the number one prog rock album of all time -- by critics, as well as most of the people most of the time.

In fact, I would think that if you listened to the whole thing and TIMED IT so that the climax of the last song came right at totality ("and everything under the sun is in tune, but the sun is eclipsed by the moon&quot , you are basically giving yourself the absolute ultimate Pink Floyd experience.

Yes, I remember Klaus as being one of the first celebrities to die of AIDS.

Maybe I'm mis-remembering, but his death hit me hard, regardless.

He was one of my punk/new-wave/art heroes.

Was scratching my head, not sure if appropriate, but I'll go with Jokerman

Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune
Bird fly high by the light of the moon
Oh, oh, oh, Jokerman
So swiftly the sun sets in the sky
You rise up and say goodbye to no one
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread
Both of their futures, so full of dread, you don’t show one
Shedding off one more layer of skin
Keeping one step ahead of the persecutor within

Peace
