Which PF album should I buy next?
Hello everyone, I have been a fan of Pink Floyd for about 3 years, I have bought many of thier albums, but I have a few left that I need to buy. I was hoping I could get some opinions on which of these 3 albums I should buy first. I would appreciate any advice you can give!

1. Obscured By Clouds
2. More
3. Atom Heart Mother


Thanks everyone!

Well, I am a new P.F fan myself, but I have OBC and it is an excellent album...except for that last song...hmm. But i've heard great things about AHM, but I don't have it ethier.

AHM definitely. ObC and More are soundtracks, they can wait.

Obscured is pretty good, very solid. Atom Heart Mother is just a personal favourite because of the title track - I love it. Don't have More, so, couldn't say.

Obscured by clouds.

The movie the album is the soundtrack for is shit, but the album is solid.

They're good albums, all of them. AHM has more historical relevance, I'd say.

Thanks for all the opinions everyone! It's such a tough choice! I know that no matter which album I buy it will be great cause it's Pink Floyd

I'd go with OBC, AHM may be offputting, just a tad.

That is true, but does not the beauty of musical evolution surely compel one to purchase chronologically? It almost seems like something approaching a step 'backwards' to buy OBC and THEN purchase the likes of AHM...

AHM - If at all just for the title track (the choir is so cool), Summer '68 (funky man) and ofcourse those lovely chewing noises, whispered noises, dripping water et el!! AHM for me!

More has been the very last album of Pink Floyd I purchased, the one which completed my collection. I always thought that it was a soundtrack, a minor album, with a crappy cover, but then I discovered the wonderful music (OK it's not ALL wonderful, I know) it contains and now I just love it.
