I picked Domine, Stethoscope, Interstellar, and Bike. Both sides are bookended very well, although the whole album is pretty great.

Astronomy Domine and Interstellar Overdrive. Quintessential Floyd of that era.

I like it all. Even if not a concept album, I can't stop it until it's finished and I've never skipped a track. I can't choose four tracks only

Lucifer Sam is the only track on the album that I love to death.
|
|
I am currently digging:
Hawkwind, Rare Bird, Gong, Tangerine Dream, Khan, Iron Butterfly, and all things canterbury and hard-psych. I also love jazz!
Please drop me a message with album suggestions.

I love this album from day one, every track. I first got a tape of it in Bali at the end of '86, and still love the album today. Fascinating all the way. Top four tunes :
Matilda Mother
Pow R Toc H
Interstellar Overdrive
The Scarecrow
Just love Rick Wright's fancy Farfisa throughout.

I'm afraid I struggle to pick even one I like.
I really can't stand Floyd until Atom Heart Mother. Thereafter, it's mostly excellent until they went downhill a bit after Animals.

I can only really pick two, Astronomy and Interstellar. The rest is not much to write home about.

Hmmm. Went with the first four tracks. Picking the fourth after the first three tracks on the album was hard though.
