This is excellent. I wholeheartedly approve. A rock album is a work of art, especially in Pink Floyd's case, and I certainly wouldn't want to listen to just one piece of the whole (this, I think, is why parts of "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" I-V and VI-IX are stuck together like that).

He's got a point. An album is a musical work created and recorded in a band in one place and one time and one mindset (with one producer, etc). Splitting it up denigrates the work.
