    Way better than DSOTM. Echoes is the best thing they ever did.

    Seamus is “throwaway?” After listening to this album on and off for almost 40 years, I have come to believe Seamus is best thing on the album.

    Of course, Echos and One of the Days are also world class, but still!

      Seamus is far from a throwaway. Quite a few of the latecomers to British blues deserved the parody.

      Pillow of Winds and St. Tropez are two of kind. Gentle interludes.

      Echoes shares more with the longer tracks on Wish You Were Here, but only in the sense that it’s a standalone, which none of the longer tracks on Dark Side are.

      It was quite the experience hearing it on an NYC station while driving west on the NY turnpike at night through very heavy fog.

    Great album. Every song in this album is a specific mood. Seamus is a great track, the writer just never got that mood, which is rather sad imo
