I have owned this forever, its nice and shiny, virtually perfect.

Was wondering why i had never listened to it, considering i love later floyd.

well, if i didnt know better, i would think those boys were on something.

It was nice of nick mason to include a recording of him tuning up on the end of side 4.

    I really like the "studio" disc. "Grandchester Meadows" going into "Several Species" is phenominal! Also, "The Narrow Way (Pt. 1-3)" is pheominal! One of my favorite Floyd albums! :smile:

    P.S. I really like the live disc as well........

    P.P.S I have never done an illegal drug in my life either........

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    This thread at AK might be of interest to the original poster...

    http://www.audiokarma.org/forums/showthread.php?t=557062

    Opinion runs sort of negative on Ummagumma, I guess... but I concur with the post above vis-a-vis "Grantchester Meadows" and "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict".

    ... oh, and I have no comment vis-a-vis recreational pharmacology ;-)

    I've got that album on CD and tried to listen to it a few times but could never get through the whole thing. Maybe I need to drop some acid.... :o)

    Floyds Relics is up next, after spending some time cleaning more discs with the spin clean Dawgfish so graciously bestowed on deb and I.

    I think i will try L.A. woman in the spin clean, seeing how the only way i had to clean it before was with flat screen tv spray and microfiber cloths.
