"World of Pain" is extremely underrated. "Dance the Night Away" has a great use of twelve-string guitar; and "Take It Back" is interesting if for nothing but its antiwar message, because Cream wasn't really known for their political stance. 
I also find "Mother's Lament" hilarious.

Me, either. Strange collection of songs, but I'm betting the good stuff is Latin.

Never heard this one. Wonder why this qualifies as a 'must hear'?

Very interesting album. I'd best describe it as Beatle-esque melodies mixed with the signature Floyd psychadelic edge. My favorite tracks Scarecrow and Flaming.

Uber album. Possibly my third favourite Floyd album after Wish You Were Here and The Wall. Best track is Interstellar Overdrive, though many people find it annoying and weird due to its psychedelic improvised style. Also good - Pow.R Toc.H, The Gnome, and Bike (which has the funniest lyrics ever, imo )

Pink Floyd is one of my favoritest bands ever, but I have to say I couldn't stand this album.

It's definitely not your overplayed-on-the-classic-rock-stations '70s Pink Floyd, but the album has a lot of strong songs. "Space rock" was born here. An excellent piece of late 60s psychedelia.

Easily one of my favorite Floyd albums. I love the Barrett era, up until Dark Side and then the rest is just 'meh' for me.
The band I used to be in covered and rocked the hell out of Lucifer Sam. I love that song.

Don't like it. 'A Saucerful of Secrets' is better than this imo.

Why no, I won't get in your car. You can pass me the candy through the window. Pink Floyd are the Greatest! Proud Jacen, NJO and LOTF fan. One of few.

Unrelated songs divided by faux commercials for various products; kicked off several lawsuits, due to real products being used on the cover and in the song lyrics and the fake commercials.
Haven't heard this one; but a great concept.
