Which "epic" do you prefer? Doesnt have to be specifically the studio versions, if you have a version you like more I would love to hear about it!

Both, equally, more or less.

Really love both, but it´s Saucerful. And the original studio version, although Ummagumma´s live is great too. I have also version from BBC-sessions, it´s really great too!

Not my cup of tea really. I really like early Floyd; just not especially these tracks.

^ yeah.. about sums me up well.  Even though I love me some early Floyd and have killed many a brain cell to it .. neither really did much for me. I'll give the edge to Overdrive though... great riff and Roger's Rick ruled on it...but neither really was much on the best of early Floyd for sure out of body experiences IMO.

Early Floyd does nothing for me.
I haven't listened to an album pre-AHM for about 30 years, despite owning all of them.

I'm surprised to see so much "meh" regarding early PF; I figured this place would be replete with admiration for that stuff.

Hi,

Strange that ASTRONOMY DOMINE was not listed.

Saucerful of Secrets is already post Syd.
