Cambridge, England (1965 – 1994)
Pink Floyd was a psychedelic/progressive rock band formed in Cambridge, England in 1965. Pink Floyd is one of rock’s most successful and influential acts, having sold over 300 million albums worldwide. The band’s classic lineup was Roger Waters (vocals, bass), David Gilmour (vocals, guitar), Rick Wright (organ, keyboards, vocals) and Nick Mason (drums). Gilmour was brought into the band in 1968 to replace the band’s founder, singer, guitarist and songwriter Syd Barrett, who had become increasingly erratic and departed from the band a few months after Gilmour’s addition. The band became known for their advancements in the genres of psychedelic rock and progressive rock music, philosophical lyrics, avant-garde compositions, sonic experimentation, innovative cover art and elaborate live shows.
Pink Floyd enjoyed modest success in the late-1960s as a psychedelic band led by Syd Barrett. Barrett’s increasingly erratic behavior eventually caused his colleagues to replace him after The Piper at the Gates of Dawn with guitarist David Gilmour. The band went on to record several elaborate concept albums; achieving worldwide success with 1973’s The Dark Side Of The Moon (The second best-selling album of all time), 1975’s Wish You Were Here, 1977’s Animals, and 1979’s The Wall, among the best-selling, most critically acclaimed, and enduringly popular albums in rock music history.

I used to think these guys were the only thing out there and listened to them constantly. Of course, they're really really great, but there's better groups. I realized that sometime late 2007. I was blind. However, I think that The Pink Floyd are still my #1 old tastes band. Can't beat Gilmour's style.
