The Progzilla Files Episode 18 (June 2016) – Floyding Solo

Pink Floyd were one of those bands where the whole was so much more than the sum of the parts. Yes, there have been a few interesting solo albums here and there, but nothing to match even, say, The Final Cut or Atom Heart Mother. Gilmour‘s solo albums are mostly flaccid, Waters‘ are mostly grumpy and Wright‘s mostly lightweight.

But, here and there, we find some gems.
