obscured by clouds

Hi there,I just want to know wot evrybody thinks about about Obscured by clouds,one of my favourite floyd's albums,I'm not kidding!!!
The first two tracks are amazing and make me flip and Gilmour's solo on Mudmen is touching!
loving you

I think this album didn't sound out of place in the early seventies, it sounds like Deep Purple to some extent,i think.
But i really like this album, i like "obscured by clouds","when you're in" and "childhood's end" most.

As i like the rockier things of pink floyd more than songs like "wish you were here" i.E., it's one of my favourites (besides Animals, the Wall and WYWH)

Prosit,

Hello byd_sarrett, and welcome,

Um, in point of fact, OBSCURED BY CLOUDS is strictly "After Syd Barrett" as far as this site is concerned, and you'll be able to see 4 pages of other members' views on the album in question.

your really lobbying for a moderator position aren't you . . .

Erm...no. Not really. But if we're to cut down on newbie-flaming then a little gentle nudging in the "right" direction may be a solution.

understood, and i love the Marx Bros. have you read Grouchos autobiography called "Groucho and Me" that is a funny book

Nope.

well i recomend it

I'm moving this to "After Syd Barrett".

thank goodness. you've saved us all.

I think that OBC is very much good. It only went gold but it diserved better for it had some really good songs on it. I really do like the whole thing and it is one the better Floyd albums I had heard. This album is the start for DSOTM in my opinion. The use of instruments on this album was good. This album was done in two weeks for a movie soundtrack.
