wtf where is kashmir on that list?

It's on the "massively overrated for seemingly no good reason and too goddamn long for its own good" list. It's great, of course, but it's not on my favorites list.

oh so what. it's two standard song lengths long. What's your point? 

I'd take 30 minutes out of my day to listen to Echoes, why wouldn't I take a mere 8 minutes to listen to Kashmir?

Echoes is 22 minutes, you tool. You think I don't know what I'm talking about?

Echoes and Kashmir both contain the same problem: lack of variety. What makes Pink Floyd normally so fucking amazing at prog rock is that they contain an atmosphere and stylistics usually unheard of: Echoes is none of this. Whale singing halfway through, sure, but after a while you realize that their shorter material is somehow better. If you want long-ass Pink Floyd songs that actually manage to keep a decent mood going without getting stale, check out the Animals album.

Kashmir's length is only a problem because it doesn't manage to carry out its "oomph" in that whole 8 minutes. Maybe about 5, if that. It's a damn cool song until you realize that the "mystic lyricism" is just the same kind of thing you've heard out of Zepp before, except not as good (try "No Quarter" for better of the same, and obviously Stairway), and where the hell is the amazing Page in all this? Grinding out a kickass riff to be sure, but nothing else.

By the way, probably the most annoying thing about "Kashmir" is the fact that it inspired Page & Plant to basically do "Kashmir" over again a whole bunch of times under different guises on their duo albums.

correction on my own part: Echoes is 23 minutes, not 22
