"Obscure" Pink Floyd songs

If it has to be obscure I'd say Julia Dream. Those in the list are too good to choose one, just Wot's Oh The Deal is a little step beyond

	from this set of songs, let there be more light....... but my favourite song before '73 from PF is definitely Echoes, and one of my favourite PF song of all times.

	Astronomy, Let There Be More Light and Cymbaline - all winners, can't really choose one so I'll add instead - Corporal Clegg, Narrow Way pt3, Eugene, Summer 68, Pillow of Winds and most of the Piper - brilliant stuff

	I thought this was going to be a clever poll for Obscured by Clouds. Oh well. I've always really liked Let There Be More Light

	i'd have to say its a toss up between a pillow of winds off of meddle, and maybe all of animals, though not necessarily obscure, but animals, especially dogs, was one of my albums of choice when beginning a night of excursions on psychedelic drugs, dogs was just the right song to blast off with, and maybe i dont think you could be aware of this dimension unless you had listened to it and the rest of animals on psychedelics, or at least some cannabis of some sort

	I thought these songs were going to be the options... Never released with Nick Mason on lead vocals: Never released but widely known: Played live but never given a proper studio recording; a demo showed up on compilations:

	Other - I've got Set The controls.... from Live At Pompeii on now - brilliant. Before that, Careful With That Axe Eugene. Again, pure class.

	My favorite pre-dark side Floyd would probably be the brilliant Embryo, which didn't make it on Meddle but can be found on quite some bootlegs.

	Ok, maybe to most of you, these songs are not "obscure." I picked a favorite song from each album, from Pipers to Meddle. I thought it would be a fun poll, without talking about Darkside and up. And if none of these songs appeal to you, choose other, and tell me the song. But only from Pipers to Meddle please
