Everyone is entitled the their own opinion ... personally I find PF to be very creative, very constructive, and I would strongly disagree with these (your) ratings of BD who aside from his song writing skills has ZERO talent for performing

10 - Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited

LOL, well, on this song, I might have to agree with you.  I don't get it at all.  But otherwise, they are the gold standard in rock music.

Now the damn thing sounds all different (like after I saw the "video" for the Beatles' Your Mother Should Know!).

Thanks. Thanks a lot!

Yes, you are right. But i love to hear this old Floyd Sound. You cannot hear very often this in our home country. So i thank RP for this.

I've never quite understood the idea that one has to be stoned to enjoy Pink Floyd...

Feh..  Why so much Floyd on RP?  It's all highly rated, so I guess you're all a bunch of layabout stoners munching on captain crunch.  Only slightly jealous..

Just a wonderful song on far and away my favorite Pink Floyd album.

So says thenotsowiseking

is this from Spinal Tap's first album?

drivel

One of my All-Time Favorite Pink Floyd Tunes followed up by Linus & Lucy!!!! Too cool.    (Picture dancing Snoopy here)

When you listen to this song in the context of Meddle, the thing that is so strange is how normal it is.

 Seconded.  This song is awesome.  I think the next song on the album is the same way.

yes... now that i think about it its very vince guaraldi's style... and the original one is a worth follow up!

This song holds its place as part of this amazing album. Dare I say Meddle is just as good as Dark Side Of The Moon.....I dare.
Great dreamy guitar to compliment a "vaudevillian" sound!!

Love this song, love this album. Not concept-crazy...not overthought...just nice.

It's so cool that a band like PF can come up with a song like this that is so unlike everything else they do but is outstanding in its own way.

...so, riding away in the wake of an old sedan - like, a car, a boat?..

this is even lamer than the crap McCartney ditties of the era.

I have a few of these type of songs where my Mom (or Dad) would open the door and say "I like this one." So many years ago.

What an odd Floyd track to play. But certainly a nice one to hear. It's hard to believe this song is on the same album as "Echoes". But it does show how eccentric and diverse the band.
