Yes but then why aren't loads of bands writing great songs due to inspiration from old friends? Because they don't have the talent to go with the inspiration.
You even said before that the manics were crap after Edwards!!!
But he inspired most of their later work didn't he?
I agree with piper.
But I'd still hand it to Gilmore.
I suppose it is between gilmore, waters and syd isn't it?
How come harldy anyone puts a case for waters?
I mean, he did do the wall and piper and wish your were here, animals etc.
In fact he was there for all the albums up to the eighties so I suppose he was the most influential.
Your point about malcolm is a low blow Crowquill.
Trying to get some points in that I clearly won in another thread despite the gentlemans club supporting you.
Shine on you crazy Crowquill.
