It took all of the members to create what we know today as Pink Floyd. I'm a fan... such a fan... of most Floyd. However, Syd took them past the disgruntled English schoolboys they were. I even love all of Syd's solo stuff. Gilmour is a genuis... so are Mason and Wright (RIP)

Roger Waters can't be overlooked for his impact on what we know as... well, as Floyd.

However, seeing Roger today... for some reason he just pisses me off!

It's annoying when people say Syd was Floyd.

Well, for a while Syd was Floyd. Floyd with him vs. without him is a very different group. Don't get me wrong... I love 'em both, but to a lot of people... he was Floyd.

I think Syd was the best songwriter and singer, Gilmour was the most talented instrumentally but has a boring voice and isn't very prolific in songwriting. Waters was a very good songwriter and has a distinct voice though...
Probably:
1. Syd
2. Waters
3. Gilmour
4. Wright
5. Mason

Waters and Gilmour both have indistinct voices, and it's difficult to distinguish between the two at times. (Waters' songwriting style is more self-imposing, but his voice certainly isn't). Just listen to Dogs and try to pick out each voice -- they both sing on the track.

The appeal of Pink Floyd has never been the singing (with the notable exception of The Great Gig in the Sky).

It's a piece of piddle to tell Waters and Gilmour's voices apart, they both sound completely different. Gilmour takes the vocals until the breakdown and Waters ends the track and I think that they were'nt the best group vocally, the combination of all three singing styles (Gilmour, Waters and Wright) added so much to their music.
