Echoes of Better Days

By who cares?????????????????????
At an early '70s middle school dance, some rascal put this album on the record player to terrorize us little tykes. It worked, at least to induce some teacher to hastily yank Floyd's murder ballad. Decades later, some opine Echoes is the epitome of Floyd. Could be. It's certainly light years better than everything they made prior and alongside on Meddle. Well, Arnold and Emily were pretty sweet.

The Best Pink Floyd Album

By mattofbass
What can you say ? They have many great albums, this rates up at the top in my book. I have them all, but will always hold Meddle as one of my favorites.
Best songs on this album: all of them !
A Pillow of Winds is great and have never heard a live version.
I guess that would be my favorite cut if I had to pick one.
Five Stars all the way !
a Floyd turning point

This is the last album where I would say Pink Floyd was truly a great band. Following this came some good (such as Dark Side) and some bad (such as The Wall) and some in between, but overall, nothing can capture the magic of this album and those that precede it. As an addendum, this is definitely Floyd's last album where they truly embraced prog rock, and all the albums afterward, despite still classifying as prog, don't really live up to this or their contemporaries.

I saw this album performed Live at the Old Santa Monica civic auditorium in 1971 - a small 3000 seat
Theater and to this day it was one of the best shows I ever saw - this the favorite of all the Pink Floyd albums -if you love The Floyd you will get this
Fantastic!

This is by far the greatest Pink Floyd album I have ever listened to. Even echoes, a 23 minute song is interesting and keeps you listening. It’s melodies are relaxing and calming making it perfect for sleep, but great for any other time. I highly recommend it to new Floyd fans.
Another Pink Floyd Classic

I cherish 'A Pillow of Winds'--it is one of my favorite songs. I had the honor of performing 'Echoes'; on stage in 1980 anjd again in the Dominican Republic in 2002. I sang lead with my friend (RIP) backing and playing guitars. I got goosebumps doing so./ 'One of these days' is a great thrash! 'Fearless' is a folk classic. Unlioke most I adore 'San Tropez'. I think it fits and is Waters before his ego outgrew the band. Seamus is a typical blues with the Seamus howling solo. All in all, I enjoy this album as much as any Floyd album. Critics say Pink came into their groove after Dark Side. I say it began with "Meddle:.

Truly one of Pink Floyd’s best albums, and hardly anyone knows about it today. It’s so peaceful and creative. However I still think “Seamus” is a little out of place.
Underrated Floyd Album!

Sorry but this has to be the worst Floyd album ever... with the exception of "One of These Days" all the songs are just crap. Don't waste your money seriously!
Floyd Rocking

A precursor to what will be Meddle starts off reminding the listener Pink Floyd is a rock n' roll band. One of These Days howls from the mist. Side 1 of the album is great and Echoes is the pivatol stepping stone to Dark Side.
