Well it's quite hard to say really. But I think 'Two suns in the sunset' is a great great song that never get a lot of mention.

I think that Pigs (Three Different Ones) is pretty underated. The live versions are espcially good.

I'm not sure exactly what we mean by underrated, but I guess i'll say Summer '68

i'd say people are way down on the title track from AHM, including the band, though it's not deserving. I think it's brilliant. Also, I don't think Have A Cigar gets much attention. Still curious that DG couldn't handle the vocals on that one.

I am also one of the few (apparently) that really likes the recorded version of AHM. Sure, there's problems with it (Nick speeds up and slows down all the time, poor guy), but on the whole, I think its certainly worthy of praise.

As for Have a Cigar, I don't think Dave couldn't do it. I just don't think he could be arsed to.

I also agree that Atom Heart Mother is far too under-rated. I love that song. It was definately a turning point in a transitional period for the band. IMHO, PF could not have gone on to make DSOTM or WYWH without having created the title song to AHM. It was indeed the combined learning from AHM and Meddle that allowed the band to create DSOTM and WYWH.

I would have to agree with Led Boots, Pigs (Three Different Ones) is very underated. The drum work on it is superb. The way Roger sings it, there is just something about it that draws me into it.

Well... Umm.....

That's a hard queation. Have a Cigar is under rated, but so is Young Lust (as a song- in the movie it's one of the highlights). That's hard......................

Well, I hear those songs on the radio a lot here, so i dunno if I would call them underrated. I don't know if Sheep Dogs or Pigs can be considered underrated either because I think most of the Floydians are really high on Animals...

I would go with Waiting for the Worms. I think it's bloody brilliant!

I agree

Wating for the Worms is brillant- so is the Trial- in fact, that whole album is brillant, so forget it.

AHM is my favorite album.

Also, The Narrow Way is brilliant.
