None of them. Syd Barrett, one of the original band members, thought up the name at the spur of the moment. Barrett had the blues records of 2 musicians in his collection: PINK Anderson and FLOYD Council, and the name is derived from them.

Check out the album "Dud Side of the Moon" by Easy Star All-Stars for a little twist on an old fave.

I see what you did there...

Should have used "queer" in keeping with the tune though, don't you think?

Pink Floyd is the most overrated band in history, I think their music ain't that great. I am told you have to be high to appreciate it. I wouldn't know.

With your head up your azz, as is typical, I don't expect you could appreciate their music.

CC aint too bright.

from wiki:

"Pink Floyd were an English rock band formed in London. They achieved international acclaim with their progressive and psychedelic music. Distinguished by their use of philosophical lyrics, sonic experimentation, extended compositions and elaborate live shows, they are one of the most commercially successful and influential groups in the history of popular music."

'overrated' LOL

If I remember correctly, when the Berlin wall fell the band approached Roger Waters about doing the Wall concert there, but Waters wanted nothing to do with it.
A friend of mine saw them in concert in Germany when she was in the USArmy and when they played the song "Be Careful With That Axe Eugene" they "beheaded" a girl on stage, all a prop of course, but she said with the light affects it looked incredibly real, she did tell me she was under the influence of something at the concert also

They generally are placed in the top five rock bands of all time with a number of lists placing them third right behind the Beatles and Rolling Stones.

IMNSHO - Dark Side of the Moon is one of the greatest musical works of all time. But we'll have to see how well it's appreciated in another 100-200 years.

I'd say that they were a little successful... 14 years on the charts for one album!

Time will tell. Very few albums have topped the charts as long as DSOTM. Years ago I was fortunate enough to hear Alan Parsons' original discrete 4 channel mix of the album. Quite amazing! That discrete 4 channel mix was only released on 8 track tape (in small numbers) in the UK, until it was finally "officially" released in the 2011 re-issue of the album. More info here:
