WT. Yes Ummagumma is a double - one disc live recorded in Birmingham (4 tracks, Astronomy Domine, Careful with that Axe, Eugene, Saucerful of Secrets, and Set the Controls ..).

The second disc is very experimental stuff from the studio. Again there are four pieces, I think each band member is responsible for one. A tad indulgent, some might say, but it has some good stuff.

The live disc is a must have.

Agreed - "The live disc is a must have" - throw the rest away, it don't get any better than Ummagumma Disc 1. Don't bother buying anything else after this album, save your money for Dead/Dead-related stuff. No offence Floyd fans, but it was going through the motions from then onwards ....... Accepted that the Dead had their peak too (ask 100 different Dead fans and get 50 answers for Cornell [yawn] and 50 other different answers) and then, after that peak (whichever one you settle on) there was a certain amount of 'going through the motions' but THEY are our favourite band and so THEY are forgiven.
