TD vs. Pink Floyd.....

[JYOB]

...Now I really enjoy the music of TD, but my wife (frau) can't stand
it....calls it Planetarium music......she enjoys the music of Pink Floyd..( I
like their earlier stuff...until they sold out with the "Wish You Were Here"
album)....so I try to tell her that TD's music is just Pink Floyd without
lyrics....but she still duzn't buy that argument either. Any suggestions???

Cyclone - it has lyrics. When I played this album for a friend of mine
who is not familiar with TD, and I asked him to identify the artist,
he answered: Pink Floyd!

Shy People (soundtrack) - it has lyrics too. The beginning of the
album is very close to PF's "Shine on you crazy diamond".

Tyger - again with lyrics, sung/recited by Jocelyn B. Smith.

If your wife likes these albums, gradually expose her to the ones
without lyrics, starting with the most melodic (Underwater Sunlight
for example), and probably in the end she will like many TD albums.

It didn't work. Now she hates the music of Steve Roach!!
