Floyd after Dark Side of the Moon went on a very strange Tangent.

If anything, Dark Side of the Moon was the start of Pink Floyd's very strange tangent. WYWH, Animals, The Wall...pretty much of the DSOTM vein with Pink Floyd. Prior to Dark Side, they were a very different group. They were getting there with Echos and even AHM and Umagumma, but those were transitory albums as Waters took them from psychedelic pop to well, whatthefuckever you call them once they got to Echos. :D

Guns N' Roses. Appetite for Destruction came out when I was like 7 or so, but it was Use Your Illusion I and November Rain that I think was when I truly began to appreciate how great music can be. I first started listening to The Beatles in my senior year of high school and that's when I began to truly appreciate oldies rock.
