♥♥♥ Shine On You Crazy Diamond / ♥♥ Wish You Were Here / ♥ Have A Cigar
I don't know how sounds the music in the Paradise but, if it exists, it would be something similar to David Gilmour's guitar on this álbum. "Shine on you crazy diamond" is the best ever song to my ears so... that's easy. Stunning lyrics. [First added to this chart: 12/07/2013]

Progressive Rock / Psychedelic
♥♥♥ Time / ♥♥ Breathe / ♥ Us And Them
If Neil Armstrong had known of this álbum, he probably would have waited five more years to travel to the moon and can listen to it during the trip. This is an album that grabs you in its surround sound and does not let go until it ends. That's how the future sounds. [First added to this chart: 12/07/2013]
