20分钟的歌曲再加上 "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" 所组成的这部专辑依旧是根系于他们早期的 "Atom Heart Mother Suite" 和 "Echoes" 等这些作品，但我们宁愿看到另一种 Pink Floyd 的音乐风格。"Shine On You Crazy Diamond" 的歌词完全是在赞美与称颂 Barrett 的聪明以及作为对其后来的隐退发出的一曲挽歌。整首歌曲由9段组成，而专辑选用了前面的5首片段作为整部专辑的开篇。对于该曲你往往最先可能被 Gilmour 忧伤的吉他主奏所打动，不过贯穿全曲的确是 Wright 有史以来最出色的键盘演奏，当然萨克斯演奏家 Dick Parry 如同在 Dark Side 中一样做了精彩的表演；而后面的4首片段则作为专辑的结束曲，伴随着风声以及David Gilmour 吉他的咆哮声和他的呐喊声中开始，并最终在波涛汹涌般的键盘声中逐渐结束整部专辑。本来该曲是作为一个整体演出的，但在1975年却被一分为二了。毫无疑问的是，这首歌曲就是针对并间接地回顾了 Pink Floyd 音乐历程上的第一个变故 —— 乐团创史人 Syd Barrett 中途离开乐队。1975年7月5日，当乐队录制完毕而进行混音制作阶段工作的时候，有一个陌生人来到录音室外面默默地看着里面工作的乐队成员，他就是 Syd Barrett。可惜当时他并不知道这部专辑就是题献给他的，在匆忙一瞥后，人们从此再也没在公共场合见到他。 在 VSC3 合成器极富规律的伴奏下，伴随着重复回声的组合引出了 "Welcome To The Machine" 开头的那部分音节，由此开始了一个针对当时音乐圈中广泛存在的“对金钱的追逐超过了对音乐制作创新的追求”现象的辛辣的讽刺，而将歌手 Roy Harper 引入并演唱 "Have A Cigar" 则似乎是 Waters 的耻辱，但当时在录制此曲的时候，本应担任主唱的 Waters 嗓子出了问题而无法正常演唱，刚巧他的朋友 Roy Harper 也同期在同一录音室录制别的作品，于是 Waters 便请他的朋友演唱了这首对唱片录音工业辛辣讽刺的歌曲，不过后来 Waters 对这个决定也无不抱怨说“not because he did it badly...it just isn't us anymore”。歌曲里面有一句歌词“Which one's Pink?”其实来自于一位对他们一无所知的美国唱片公司董事询问乐队时愚蠢的提问，后来在演唱会上，Waters 将这句话印到自己的T恤上。 唱片的标题曲 WISH YOU WERE HERE 同样也是针对 Syd Barrett，但也是 Roger Waters 对于徘徊在乐队成功的四周围的贪婪所进行的斗争中所感受到的紧张感，而根植于贯穿 Wish You Were Here 专辑中所体现出来的那种觉醒的主题不断的滋生发展并最终在后来的 The Wall 中萌发壮大。古典/爵士小提琴手 Stephane Grapelli 参加了该曲的录制，也就是全曲结束时那几个小节的风声的合成音响效果的录音。而歌曲的管弦乐片段其实是截取于 Tchaikovsky 的第四交响曲的录音。本曲以后成为乐队巡回演唱会上的保留曲目，即使是 Waters 离开乐队后，无论乐团还是他依旧喜欢在各自的演出中演唱它。 WISH YOU WERE HERE 专辑于75年9月27日进入美国排行榜并名列12位，并于10月4日升至榜首。而在英国，发行后第一周便荣登榜首，不过这要感谢提前预售的25万张唱片的功劳。Wish 专辑也是在他们离开了与之合作多年的 Capitol 唱片公司，并自组 Pink Floyd Music 公司后制作的第一部作品，另外他们将其作品改委由 Columbia 唱片公司发行而不是老东家EMI公司了。或许是因为上一张作品反映太好，它多少显得这张专辑有些失色，乐评家的评论甚至也仅以“了无长进”一笔带过。现在回过头来看这张唱片，虽然具有一定程度的商业化倾向的表现，但在音乐创作的本质上，它仍然够资格称得上是一张质量均佳的好作品。 这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第209位。

Nevermind is the second studio album and major-label debut by American rock band Nirvana, released on September 24, 1991 by DGC Records. It was Nirvana's first release to feature drummer Dave Grohl. Produced by Butch Vig, Nevermind features a more polished, radio-friendly sound than the band's prior work. It was recorded at Sound City Studios in Van Nuys, California, and Smart Studios in Madison, Wisconsin, in May and June 1991, and mastered that August at the Mastering Lab in Hollywood, California. Written primarily by frontman Kurt Cobain, Nevermind is noted for channeling a range of emotions, being noted as dark, humorous, and disturbing. Its themes include alienation, frustration, anti-establishment and anti-sexist views, and troubled love inspired by Cobain's broken relationship with Bikini Kill's Tobi Vail. Contrary to the hedonistic themes popular in rock music at the time, writers have observed that Nevermind promoted the image of the sensitive artist in mainstream rock. According to Cobain, the sound of the album was influenced by bands such as Pixies, R.E.M., the Smithereens, and Melvins. Though the album is considered a cornerstone of the grunge genre, it is noted for its musical diversity, which includes acoustic ballads ("Polly" and "Something in the Way") and punk-influenced hard rock ("Territorial Pissings" and "Stay Away"). Nevermind became an unexpected critical and commercial success, reaching the top 10 on charts across the world. On January 11, 1992, it replaced Michael Jackson's Dangerous at the number one spot of the US Billboard 200 and was selling approximately 300,000 copies a week. The lead single, "Smells Like Teen Spirit", reached the Top 10 of the US Billboard Hot 100 and went on to be inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. Its music video was also heavily rotated on MTV. Three other successful singles were released: "Come as You Are", "Lithium", and "In Bloom". The album was voted the best album of the year in Pazz & Jop critics' poll, while "Smells Like Teen Spirit" also topped the single-of-the-year and video-of-the-year polls. The album also garnered the band three Grammy Award nominations in total across the 34th and 35th Grammy Awards, including Best Alternative Music Album. Nevermind propelled Nirvana into worldwide superstardom, with Cobain being dubbed the "voice of his generation". It brought grunge and alternative rock to a mainstream audience while accelerating the decline of hair metal, drawing similarities to the early 1960s British Invasion of American popular music. It is also often credited with initiating a resurgence of interest in punk culture among teenagers and young adults of Generation X. It has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time. In 2024, it was certified 13× platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Among the most acclaimed and influential albums in the history of music, Nevermind was added by the Library of Congress to the National Recording Registry in 2004 for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant", and is frequently ranked highly on lists of the greatest albums of all time, including being ranked number six on Rolling Stone's 2020 and 2023 lists of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time". The album has since been reissued with alternate takes and live performances.
