A beautiful goodbye to a friend | Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

On this episode of Vinyl Verdict, Bell, Jamie and Plouffe, listen to Jamie's next pick, Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here. Released in 1975, Wish You Were Here was the follow up album to 1973's Dark Side of the Moon, the band's big breakout album. While less commercially successful than Dark Side of the Moon, the album has been warmly received retrospectively, having been named both the #4 progressive rock album and variously the 209th, 211th and 264th greatest album of all time by Rolling Stone. Bookended by the mammoth tracks Shine On You Crazy Diamond, the album serves as both a criticism of the music industry and a lamentation for prior Pink Floyd member, Syd Barrett. Barrett had been the original guitarist for the band prior to his departure in 1968, amidst a severe decline in his mental health. Like the previously covered The Mollusk, the album art was done by Storm Thorgerson and his design studio Hipgnosis. Is this another album that Bell will inexplicably like? Will the boys be swallowed up by the Machine? Come along and find out!
