This is pretty difficult. I'll go with Set The Controls...

I quite like the version of Careful With That Axe... on Ummagumma, so I'll go with that.

Have to go with Careful with that Axe. If only because I remember blasting it out of my dorm window !-)

Love the brooding sinister vibes of Eugene (and Wright's organ chords), but Set The Controls has the intense build up with some of Wright's most impressive playing (IMO, of course).

I can't choose, they are both just too great. On their live versions, of course (Ummagumma or Pompeii, I prefer Set the Controls on the Pompeii version, though I'm not so sure about Eugene, I think that one might have a slight preference on the Ummagumma version).

Careful has several great versions, one of Pink Floyd's most underrated tracks. Easy choice.

This is a very tough one. My favourite versions: Pompeiï for Set the Controls, the 5'46" studio version for Eugene. Today I pick the latter.

Impossible choice - I first heard 'Eugene' when I got Relics as a 12 year old - 'Set the Controls' came a year later when I brought home a Floyd bootleg from a school trip to Switzerland!
