Re: Pink Floyd - Obscured By Clouds
It's okay. Not their best, but certainly not their worst. Disc 2 of Ummagumma is still probably their worst.

Re: Pink Floyd - Obscured By Clouds
I haven't listened to this album for a long time. I am listening to the 2016 remix in the Pink Floyd Early Years boxet and it sounds immense. The Gold It's In The.... sounds amazing.

Re: Pink Floyd - Obscured By Clouds
I adore this album, and the last album were they really were a band of brothers and everyone had a voice in the musical direction before the sad, slow rot set in between the band members.

I listened to my Japanese pressing of this the other day.
Their soundtrack albums are delightful.

Re: Pink Floyd - Obscured By Clouds
This is one of my least favorite albums by PF, and it is amazing!
What an insanely great band this is.

Re: Pink Floyd - Obscured By Clouds
Currently listening and commenting to all the albums in order. I could easily have skipped this. I didn't hate but it's just background music.

Re: Pink Floyd - Obscured By Clouds
This is very important album in Pink Floyd's history, imo. The OBC neglects the experimentation in favour of search for good melodies. Thus presaging the melodical side of Dark Side Of The Moon.

Re: Pink Floyd - Obscured By Clouds
I don't disagree. Having listening to nearly all the albums one after the other you can hear the evoloution.
