Hey no one said they couldn't and even if they had I think they would have recorded it anyway. It's not perfect, but I love as a whole. The live version more so...

Presumably if you ingest industrial quantities of mind altering substances, it turns into great experimental sounds

Re: Ummagumma (a Rick Wright idea)
I think it was just careless. They just said what the hell and put out whatever crap they thought was cool at that particular minute. If they would have lived with the ideas for a while, they would have realized that they weren't such cool ideas after all. It's my least favorite album of theirs for that reason.

Re: Ummagumma (a Rick Wright idea)
I fucking love that album both live and studio (except for maybe Nick's bit)...busted my Floydian cherry with that double disc and will STILL listen to it before many other of their records.Kimon wrote:What's your opinion on Ummagumma. It was one of the few Rick Wright's ideas and many fans or even band members think of ita as an absolute disster. For some other funs, including myself, it was a very interesting experiment which revealed the capabilities of each member.

It's nice to see 60% fans love the album So the situation is not hopeless at all
