I like DSotM a good bit too, but it just doesn't do quite as much for me as
some of their other albums. Probably because I never have learned to love
"the Great Gag in the Sky" (That's a joke, Larry... Gag, as in horking,
ralphing, spewing... I hate that song. Which probably means you think
it's the best part of the whole album.

You mean the black vocalists in the background with the
full range of voice routine? Gags me, too.

The "black vocalist" was a white girl: Clare Torry. Yes, I'm another
Floyd anorak Saw them at Knebworth circa 1975.

About the only modern band I listen to nowadays is Blur, most of the
rest is overpriced effluent. Record sales going down because of
piracy? I think not.
