  • 1. Pink Floyd Echoes Meddle (the grandaddy for me, simply an epic masterpiece and still the perfect closer to one of the most important albums in Floyd's evolution) )

    2. U2 Love is Blindness Achtung Baby
    (just a haunting beauty and 2nd only to One on AB, to see it performed live is just awesome, to think the dreck their producing now, Yaweh for fuck sake, Wake Up Dead Man on Pop should get an honorable mention as well, an uncertain U2 is far more an interesting on than the radio friendly unit shifters they've become )

    3. Pink Floyd Shine On 6-9 Wish You were Here
    (not on a par with 1-5 but still an epic sublime closer to my fav album of all time)

    4. Pink Floyd Brain Damage & Eclipse DSOM
    (what can i say 2 perfect songs to end one of the most influential and lasting albums of all time)

    5. Radiohead The Tourist Ok Computer ( just a perfect ending to the 90's masterpiece, dark, sombre & beautiful)
  • If the film version was on the album, it would be outside the wall, the wall, by pink floyd

    My favorite album closers,...pretty good list.

    Good list but "Hurt" is on The Downward Spiral. I think "The Great Below" closes out the first disc of "The Fragile" and I think it's a great song.
