Re: best song off of 'Piper at the gates of dawn'

The other night I was lestenin to The Piper, very relaxed with candles and everything... and i found out thad syd is one of the best songwriters in the history of music... Astronomy Domine is one of the most modern piece of music I've heard frm the 60's (and is far better than all the other version)... but Lucifer Sam is mi favourite... all the guitars in there and all the noises and everything.. is incredible... no words.

I believe that Flaming, Astronomy Domine, and Bike were taken off the original Tower Records release.
They held Flaming off the album for single release, which they paired with The Gnome.
See Emily Play was added to the LP.

You are correct sir! The tracklisting was also rearranged:

See Emily Play
Pow R Toc H
Take Up Thy Stethoscope and Walk
Lucifer Sam
Matilda Mother
The Scarecrow
The Gnome
Chapter 24
Interstellar Overdrive

Which I think is more than a bit stupid, really. I mean, not only did they eliminate the two best songs on the LP, they also screwed up the flow from song to song.

Re: best song off of 'Piper at the gates of dawn'

I vote for Astronomy Domine. The sounds in the beginning, the vocals, the instrumental part... I just like everything a lot. Matilda Mother, Interstellar Overdrive (a true Floyd Classic) and Lucifer Sam are great as well.

Re: best song off of 'Piper at the gates of dawn'

Thorin, I fixed it.

If you ever need more than 10 choices on a poll, you can put the first 10, and then PM one of the mods and have the rest added in manually.

Hope that helps!
