Well Pink Floyd is the greatest band ever, so it's not fair to compare them to anything else.

Yes, yes I do.
I got tickets to Roger Waters for my high school graduation present. Everybody should be required to listen to nothing but classic rock until their 15th birthday.

Ehh, I dunno about that, though admittedly I started really getting into it with The Jimi Hendrix Experience.
...I still like to listen every now and then. There's nothing wrong with it! It's only uncool if you have a poster in your dorm!

IMO Waters has the perfect mix of simplicity and complex bass lines.
Ermm... I'm pretty sure that Gilmour played the bass on the album cut of that song.

Unless it's Ummagumma. That's just trippy. They're in a different position in each picture! But I digress.
No Stones, no Hendrix, no Gilmour, no fuzz.

I listened to so much classic rock as a kid that I can only take in small doses these days.
