Because there are those like myself who see it exactly the opposite. For me, AFTK is one of the best ever, and Animals is just ok.

To each their own.

Post by: CrimsonSunrise on July 09, 2011, 11:34:53 PM: I'm Shocked too. But hey... thanks Kev for doing these threads. It's a good flashback ;D I remember a thread months ago where the focus of the thread was what band had the best run with multiple albums. My choice was deff. Floyd. These 70's best of's have reinforced that for me :hat
