I fucking love this album. Totally underrated as Floyd goes.


Thoughts?

I dunno man....its pretty good, but it was before they really found their sound. Some of it is just very noisey experimental wank.

Although any PF is good PF

I wouldn't call it wank, per se, more of noise very fitting of the mood. It's definitely mood music. Although Corporal Clegg is a bit of an odd man out.

I was in Walmart today, and I was standing in an open space between two aisle openings right. There was a Chinese couple at one aisle end speaking Chinese, and the other aisle end was an Italian couple speaking Italian to each other. Well needless to say the Walmart was retardly busy, so I was standing in that spot for what felt like 5 minutes waiting for the people-jam in front of me to clear and these two couple are speaking in their languages, and I got a little frustrated at the whole situation and yelled out basically "I will kill all your children if you don't start moving" in Norwegian... no one paid any attention to me. So yeah, that's my Walmart story.

i like it but think the production sucks, especially on the title track where the ending doesn't possess any of the power that it has live

One of my least favorite Floyd albums, but has its moments. To me it's just the band trying to be a Syd-era band without Syd. Atom Heart Mother was them finally realizing their own potential.

Oh shit, I completely forgot that was on there! Quite possibly my #1 favorite PF song, but it's got stiff competition from The Trial.

Always one of my favorites. Remember a Day is mabey my ultimate floyd song, Let There be More Heres a classic lyric 'there the Rhull revealed to him, the living sword of Hereward the ward' wtf? awesome.

Plus see-saw is some of wrights best I think.
I had the vocal echo on Jugband floating in my head on Lucy for seven hours. now its an instant flashback moment.


I take this album in late at night looking up a clear winter sky. as good as it gets I think.
