Echoes, hah? I feel like Yesspaz awhile back on the Genesis thread, when he didn't get the adoration of Supper's Ready - that's how I feel about Echoes. It would have made a great 5 minute song, in my opinion, but they drag it on and on and on and when are we going to get to the nowhere that this song goes?
I also don't get the general dislike of Momentary Lapse - while probably less progressive than much of their stuff, I think it's a pretty good album overall.
Favorite 5 tracks - tough call, as I like almost everything they've done, but few really stand out for me. How about:
Atom Heart Mother Suite
Side 2 of DSOTM (I know that's cheating but tough)
Pigs On The Wing
Shine On You Crazy Diamond
Learning To Fly
