"Decent Man" is the one from the current album that first got pushed at me, and got my attention. I hadn't been aware of him before, but I'll definitely check out some of the older stuff.
I can't claim to be an aficionado. I'm sure Hurricane Party got served up in an old spotify playlist and I paid attention because we are a weather family. But I liked it and it has stuck around.
Pink Floyd was my soundtrack in high school--it worked without the drugs, too. But I'd have to put Momentary Lapse of Reason higher, because that's how I first heard Pink Floyd (probably on MTV.) And The Dark Side of the Moon is my top album, in part because (1) released the month I was born, (2) physics reference on the album artwork. But I think Time has the best Pink Floyd lyrics: "and then one day you find, then years have got behind you, no one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun." Maybe it cuts too close for too many people.
Nice song suggestion. Here’s my favorite James McMurtry song so far: https://open.spotify.com/track/78dcaKxgexY2soPoKtzmCa?si=xK9invYvTzid1jz2iaoqdw

I'm weirdly fond of ANIMALS out of the Imperial Period albums. Probably the best guitar showcase for Gilmour of any of them.
