    @johnpalmer and I have started listening to the entire collection of Pink Flloyd albums. We wanted to really understand the music better since there have been 3 prolific contributors to the cannon, and the music has been so varied from one leader to the next. So far we have listened to “Piper at the Gates of Dawn” one of my favorites, and “A Saucer Full Of Secrets”. I always find Piper fun to listen to, even if a few of the songs are not truly enjoyable, and it really is cool to hear the beginnings of what will become their sound, and how their early experimentation sounded. Saucer, on the other hand, was thoroughly unenjoyable for me. A lot of the experimentation in here sounds like suffering through some art school critique of that kid who thinks they are doing “great stuff” by assaulting us with noise. Today we will listen to “Ummagumma” because we could not find the “More” album; from what I read, we might be better off skipping that one anyways, lol. We shall see how it goes, as I recall from high school, “Ummagumma” was not my jam ;P
