Album of the Day

The Division Bell, by Pink Floyd (1994): While I enjoy a lot of Floyd, I'm not a hard-core fan, so I've never gotten too caught up in whether the Waterless version of the band was "real" Floyd. Maybe that's why I actually like The Division Bell. It's not Dark Side . . . or Wish You Were Here, but it's still pretty good expansive atmospheric stuff. Gilmour's playing is top notch, too. Besides, anytime I hear "High Hopes" I think of the video and hear Beavis saying, "Look, Butthead - giant bingo balls!" and laugh.
