Echoes: The Best of Pink Floyd
Interestingly, the album's nonchronological track listing works--the summery, childhood enchantment of "See Emily Play" is right next to the school discipline of "Happiest Days of Our Lives"--and at least this way no one will switch off when material from A Momentary Lapse of Reason comes around. Despite the curious omission of "Atom Heart Mother," this really is the very best of the Floyd--from the throbbing "One of These Days" to the pop operatic "Great Gig in the Sky" to the genius silvery fluidity of Dave Gilmour's guitar work. This is timeless, as many members of Sigur Rós, Radiohead, and the Beta Band will attest. --Kevin Maidment

Reviews:
Great mixes
I'm gonna quote what people have been stating, that this is NOT their complete greatest hits, now my question is, what would be their greatest hits then? I am a massive Pink Floyd fan and the first record I got from them is, believe it or not, this greatest hits album. Indeed you can not make a greatest hits by this band since there wouldn't be enough space on the album to put all their greatests, unless ofcourse you make a second volume, but that won't do since you already have 2 cd's in one here. Now what people have to do in order to feed that hunger for more Pink Floyd music is definitely getting all their studio albums. Indeed not all my favorites are here but then again alot of great ones are, which made me forced in purchasing all their records like I mentioned, excluding Syd Barret's era which I'm not to fond upon that. Pink Floyd is by far the greatest band to walk on the face of the earth, creating dstinctive sounds, powerful lyrics and making records people still hale to til this date. This album is still a must to own, simply cos it's from the one and only, Pink Floyd.I love Pink Floyd...but this...
I love Pink Floyd, but I dont like this. Each Pink Floyd album has its own special little meaning to it, you can't capture the meaning behind their music with a bunch of thier songs all scrambled up and mixed together.The ONLY good purpose to this album would be to give a newbie a taste of what each album is like.
HOWEVER, I think this gives a terrible job of giving what of Piper At the gates of dawn sounds like. They put in two of their singles, which sound almost nothing like thier stuff at that time. (With exception to bike and astronomy domine.)
Like many others have said, if you want to capture the greatest music of pink floyd, you will have to buy all their albums. I like to say....dont get pink floyd songs, buy thier albums! But hey...im only 14.
If I had to make a greatest hit album, it would be long, but like this.
