As suggested in Cristi's recent Pink Floyd poll, here are all fifteen Pink Floyd albums divided into five polls of three albums each, in chronological order.  This means the Syd & post-Syd albums are together, the Roger-led albums are together, and the David-led albums are together. 

Have fun comparing the merits of them all

This is part one - the first three albums.

Same here.  I usually don't vote in my own polls, but I'll make an exception for these

I voted for The Piper.

Honestly, I'm not that familiar with albums before Meddle so I'll move on to Part 2.

damn that is hard...  my top 2 Floyd favorites in the same poll.

I do sort of flip between them.

Saucerful by a hair over More.

Piper is a great debut and a brief moment of shining Syd.

Piper.
Saucerful is a great album, amazing tracks like Let There Be More Light and Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun, but Piper has Interestellar Overdrive, and i can't go against that.

More is just meh, only Cymbaline, The Nile Song and Green Is The Collor are great track, the rest is just boring.
Please, forgive my spelling and concordance mistakes. English noob here.

A Saucerful Of Secrets

I also love More.
I like their debut in small dozes, it's my least favorite of their psychedelic era.

Piper, one of the great debuts and one of the great psych albums.

Saucerful of Secrets gets my vote here.  I love the psychedelia and the experimental mix here plus the variety is better on SoS.  PatGoD has it's moments, but Syd overabundance makes it suffer a little more for me.  But, even with that said, it is still a favorite, just not as much as SoS.
