Dark Side bc of the time and place, when I bought it!
I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

Obscured By Clouds is indeed the best. What's your favorite song from it?

I like most of them, but Childhood's End is my pick.
Fantastic song. My favorite is probably The Gold It's In The... Great travel tune.

Meddle no question. After the years it became my most favourite album by PF. One Of These Days and Echoes are Pink Floyd at their best. And even as the rest songs aren't on par with these two gems they're definitely good enough to like the whole record. Maybe only Wish You Were Here are on the same level as Meddle. Definitely it's not one of the most overrated record in music history - Dark Side ;-)

I've grown to think Floyd are somewhat overrated over the years....that's not to say I don't like them ...I do (Gilmore 's melodic guitar playing was always the best thing about them imho)
DSOTM is still their finest moment imho though I rarely play it anymore. WYWH is a close second for me and I have never understood all the love for Animals....a dark record that is simply not that pleasant to listen to .
If someone forced me to keep only one Floyd album...it would prolly be Meddle....a sentimental favorite from my college days. It brings back many good memories.
One does nothing yet nothing is left undone.

I like Atom Heart Mother, Meddle and Animals the most...

I voted for Meddle for no particular reason.

I don't know - of all the PF Discog polls, Wish You Were Here and Animals both give it trouble iirc. 
Exactly the reason I made it. Variety. LOL

Animals. Easy choice.

It's a bit raw, very dark and lyrically brilliant.

Dogs is one of my favourite songs of all time.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!
