Ive listened to the 2 CDs available so far and its been a greta project to be involved in. The ideas from every artist have blown me away. When i saw the running order before i listened to the CDs i had in my head an idea of what it could sound like but the actual events have gone way beyond anything we all thought possible when the project was first announced. A big well done to everyone involved and massive thanks for putting my track on the 2nd CD. Good Job all round.

WOW!! First two discs have been incredible! Can't think of them all off the top of my head, but stand-outs for me were Careful With That Axe (apart from about 90 seconds in the middle - sorry, not my thing!), Grantchester Meadows (mind if I use this version in place of the original?), Cymbaline (beautiful!), Set The Controls, Atom Heart Mother... where do I stop?!
Can't wait to hear the third disc. Don't make us wait any longer, Keith!!

WOW! Just listened to disc 1,

and it's amazing. Every track on it was great. In particular, CWTAE was brilliant (and I loved the middle part)! Cymbaline, gosh what a breezy and beautiful take Lovespirals did on that (amazing vocals!). Stop was fantastic too. Who'd have thought that a little track like that could be turned into such a great song? And Matilda Mother tripped me right out! Loved it! I could go on and on. Well, everything was great (though I'll reserve comment on my own contribution, Cirrus Minor, for other people!). Like others have said, it has exceeded expectations. Congratulations to everyone involved on a suberb job done! (because I am assuming the rest is as good as the first disc! Can't wait to hear discs 2 & 3)

Wow, what a great day this is! Floyd is re-uniting, I have amazing covers of Floyd tunes to listen to...it just doesn't get much better than this!

Actually it's very good.

First off, I must say Atom Heart Mother blew me away....and the High Hopes/Tide is turning medley was a fantastic idea. Really worked very well, I thought.
The rest of both albums sound so good, and I love everyone's take on these amazing songs. My biggest happiness about the whole thing is how deep into the catalogue of tunes we all went into. A great collection I must say. Can't wait for the 3rd (and final

) disc
Everyone's stuff sounded so professional, and the mastering makes everything flow flawlessly. I have absolutely no complaints! Give yourselves all a big pat on the back!!

ok people...

i listened to the magnum opus and i've to congatulate with you. This is how internet can bring peolple toghether to follow a specific goal...and produce it in a concrete way! Impressive. A very original and creative idea, from the performers, to the artworkers and the producers. My compliments, again.

If there's going to be a vol.2, i really would like to partecipate too.

Thumbs up to all of you.
