Finally a Pink Floyd album ranking where Ummagumma isn't dumped at Number 15! I've watched many RUclips Pink Floyd album where it sadly seems to be a general consensus that Ummagumma is the worst album! Ummagumma is very underrated in my opinion and is one of my favourite Pink Floyd albums! My ranking would look like this.... #15 - A Momentary Lapse of Reason (just... didn't sound like a Pink Floyd album to me) #14 - The Endless River (I'd say this album is mostly bland and I guess boring as you've mentioned, however there are a couple of gems in this, particularly the one called "It's What We Do" (you can hear abit of Shine On You Crazy Diamond and a little of Welcome to the Machine in this song, seriously just listen to the song you will know what i mean).. Another Endless River song used some of the Run Like Hell music in it if you listen carefully and then there's Ark of Conversation or Conversation or whatever it's called, that's pretty good, Noodle Street isn't too bad. But I'd say those tracks are the highlight of the album. #13 - The Division Bell (had to place this at Number 13. I love David Gilmour, best guitarist ever however the kind of Gilmour Era of Pink Floyd isn't really my favourite which is ironic considering how much i love Gilmour. My favourite songs from this album are Cluster One (a lot of people tend to say Marooned is better but I prefer Cluster One over Marooned), What Do You Want From Me, and of course High Hopes. To me, those are the only songs that stand out for me, i guess if i had to put an honourable mention it would be A Great Day For Freedom. It gets difficult to rank the rest now because I love Pink Floyd and honestly, i generally love all the other Pink Floyd albums which is why Pink Floyd is my favourite band ever, but I will do my best.... #12 - A Saucerful Of Secrets (just because this is at Number 12, doesn't necessarily mean I love this any less than other Pink Floyd albums, again, it's hard to rank at this point but a ranking is a ranking I have to place A Saucerful of Secrets SOMEWHERE. I love the opener, Let there be Light. While I hated Corporal Clegg initially, that song grew on me and now I love it, there are a few Pink Floyd songs actually where I hated them initially but grew to love them over time, other songs being Sheep from Animals and Welcome to the Machine but I'll get to those). I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEE the song A Saucerful of Secrets however, ironically the A Saucerful of Secrets album version of the song A Saucerful of Secrets is my LEAST favourite version, I say ironically because one would think the album that shares the song's name would SHOWCASE the song in the best possible light, know what I mean? However, for me, that simply wasn't the case. The Ummagumma and Pompeii versions of A Saucerful of Secrets song is SIGNIFICANTLY better in sound and quality. I don't think I've ever gotten into Set the Control, Set the Control seems to be the only Pink Floyd song from his album that i can't get into, the song just sounds too repeatitive, it's the same throughout, mmmmmm mmmmmmmm *drums drums* mmmmmm mmmmmm *drums*, just too boring for me. It's worth mentioning i love the instrumental side of Pink Floyd and there are song instrumentals that are AMAZING, the song A Saucerful of Secrets (Pompeii and Ummagumma versions) being on of them, I will do more into my love for instrumentals as i get further into my ranking. #11 - The Final Cut Not going to lie, this used to be at Number 15 in my Pink Floyd album ranking and now? I LOVE this album and i'm truly listening to it for what it is. I love Not Now John, such a fun song, and album title track The Final Cut, Southampton Dock, The Post-war dream, Gunner's dream, etc etc... these songs are fantastic. When The Tigers Broke Free, i hated initially because i wasn't paying attention to the lyrics and I'd skip this song often but now, it might well be my favourite track on the album, it's just so SAD but really goosebumpily blood-rushing tingling at the same time, the way that song ends, omg!!!! #10 - Obscured By Clouds Great album. I agree with what you said that, of all the Pink Floyd albums, this album seems to be the most traditional, standard album in terms of like, songs. Like the song lengths aren't too long but they feel like something you'd hear on the radio, know what I mean? in that sense. My favourite song is Wot's Uh the Deal but i love Childhood's End too and the instrumentals. #9 - The Piper At The Gates of Dawn Love this album, love Syd's child-like, kind of nostalgic vibe and child-like wonder. Love the psychedelic sounds and dreamyness. ASTRONOMY DOMAINE is soooooo good!!!! just love it! (i love instellar overdrive too, but i prefer Astronomy domain a little more over that). The band have said in interviews that it was never their intention to get into space rock but if i had to name there most space-rocky songs then it would be songs like instellar). What can i say? I just love the other songs too... Lucifer Sam, such a great song, Matilda Mother, and also, was See Emily Play in this album too? I can't remember, i know it's definitely in Relics album but I love See Emily Play too. It's been a long time since I last listened to this album, i really need to listen again. Bike is amazing too, what can I say? just a great album. And while i'm on the subject, I just want to say, as far as a debut album goes for iconic British bands, this album was VERY GOOD for a first album! #8 - More (love Gilmour's voice, love the tranquility and dreamy calmness of this album). As i mentioned earlier, I generally love all the Pink Floyd albums so The Piper album could just as easily rank over than More but a ranking is a ranking and I have to put More SOMEWHERE. My favourite songs are Crying Song, Cymbaline, Ibiza Bar, The Main Theme, Cirrus Minor, Green is the Colour. #7 - Ummagumma (Yes! Perhaps you can understand my deflation when people rank this at Number 15. The Live side of this album is just incredible!!! love all of it. I enjoy the other side too, although to a lesser degree than the Live side. The highlight of this side is easily Gilmour's section, The Narrow Way, omg !!! so f**kin good! People say Gilmour can't write a song but that's bullsh**... the guy can write! It's a shame Gilmour didn't get further into song writing and I really wish he hadn't gotten his wife to write all the songs in The Division Bell, she's not a member of Pink Floyd). I love Wright's sysyphus section. Sadly Roger's and Nick's section are where this album is lacking and disappointing for me, Nick's part is .... erm... god, what can i say about Nick's part? it's pretty awful... and Roger's part was ok. But I also understand this was an experimental album, certainly their most avant-garde album, so with that in mind, they can get away with all this instrumental wacky bizarre stuff. AND let's not forget that we are talking about a band that once had an album called 'Household Objects' for crying out loud! Led Zeppelin , The Beatles or the Rolling Stones would NEVER put out an album like that. So you have to admire Pink Floyd for really trying to push the boundaries, they were a band willing to explore! I guess the Syd Era of Pink Floyd did have some Beatles-like vibe to it and their song Number 9 or Revolution 9 or whatever it's called certainly feels like a Pink Floyd song. #6 - Meddle. The elephant in the room here is Echos of course, just so good!!!!!! SOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I love the other tracks too! what can i say? it's at Number 6 for a reason! #5 -The Wall #4 - Animals #3 - Atom Heart Mother #2 - Wish you were Here #1 - The Dark Side Of The Moon Sorry if my writing is getting abit lazy now, my wrists are beginning to ache and I guess i spent too long talking about the other albums and i just want to get this ranking done and posted now. Sometimes i forget just how long the Pink Floyd discography is, this band was around for a very long time as far as bands go. I think i read that Led Zeppelin where only together for like 5 years. I cloud talk A LOT about the other albums but it will take me the whole day. In a nutshell, i love most of their albums.
Thanks for giving us your in depth thoughts on each album. This is great feedback. Also my younger self would have placed Ummagumma higher up this list for sure just for the sheer unexpectedness of it...
@@alansteadreviews Yeah, Ummagumma is underrated and Atom Heart Mother is like a hidden gem in the Pink Floyd discography. I think the cow on the album cover kinda deters people from picking up the album and listening to it because it just has a boring cow on it with no text. However there is something quintessentially very British about a cow on an album cover and lord knows Pink Floyd often referenced British culture in their work, "quiet desperation is the English way" etc. Actual thought went into all of their albums.. I'm going to see Roger Waters in concert in like 5 weeks time, can't wait!
Well The Wall has too much filler in it, this is my only beef with the album. Like, nobody ever cared for the Pink Floyd song called STOP which is only 30 seconds long (fun fact, Stop is the shortest Pink Floyd song in existence)@@xsm5525
Although I get it, it's meant to be listened to in a single sitting and as a whole. I think it's HEAVILY Roger led, and while I love Roger, i think he can be a little too much sometimes.
Great ranking and discussion. Here is how I rank them. 1. The Piper at the Gates of Dawn- I am a huge Syd fan and consider this album to be a masterpiece. 2. Dark Side of the Moon 3. Animals- This one got better as I got older. 4. A Saucerful of Secrets- This album is very underrated. 5. Wish You Were Here 6. The Wall- This was number one for me in high school. I really connected with it at a hard point in my life. It doesn't hit me quite the same at this age, but I still enjoy it. 7. Meddle 8. Obscured by Clouds 9. The Final Cut 10. More 11. Division Bell 12. Atom Heart Mother 13. Endless River 14. A Momentary Lapse of Reason 15. Ummagumma
Cheers for sharing your list. The Piper of the Gates of Dawn used to be my favourite when I was young and I still love it, but when I first heard it over 20 years ago it blew me away.
I do believe the brick in the wall was written about my old school teacher Brian hardbottle who I believe was one of the group teacher as well. As it was band in the school.if you got caught singing a bit of it you got the sleeper.and I got it a few time
We are in almost complete, vehement disagreement on every ranking below the top 4........................and I love that! It's always great to absorb and reflect on a completely different take on something so subjective as musical taste. All I ever really have to say to explain where I stand in relation to PF album ranking is: Division Bell came out in the States on my 18th birthday, the very same day I left a very repressive adopted home environment and struck out on my own. I adore every Floyd release - official or otherwise; am actually writing a book about the band - but that gives some idea of the foundation upon which I built my mega-fandom and why our rankings are so vastly different.
I think the big problem with the "Atom Heart Mother" suite is that it depends on the chorus and orchestra to work, so when they tried to do it live later with just the 4 of them, it's kind of boring. The later epics, especially "Echoes" and "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" work much better live with the core group (with the augmentation of a sax player in "Shine On", of course.
Yes. You're absolutely right. I still love it, but it's not such a good showcase of the band's prowess as Echoes, Shine On and Dogs for instance but the orchestra makes it nearly up to the standard of those tracks.
Hey - I've been meaning to comment - I've really enjoyed your rankings - mostly because it makes me rethink how I feel about them and also because you are prompting me to review some stuff I've not listened to. Being an AVID collector since - uh - I guess 1972 - highschool - and having lived in places like Fayetteville Arkansas, Austin Texas and Atlanta Georgia I was able to hit some great used record stores and also lots of garage and estate sales. So I have owned everything rock from about 1965 to 1980, but have culled over the years. I generally didn't cull groups like Neil Young/CSNY, Floyd, Beatles, Stones, Rundgren/Utopia, Hendrix, Zep, CCR, Little Feat (!), Talking Heads, and I'm sure there are others, but for the rest I would just keep the cream. Mainly because I was getting buried. I also got into blues starting in the late 70's in Austin and Jazz in the middle 80's in Atlanta. And I've inherited two giant collections of early jazz (as early as the 30's) from my dad and an uncle as well a collection of classical from my grandfather who was a symphony musician. But keep up the good work - I enjoy your indepth reviews and have watched multiple ones. I'll probably comment on the line ups later. Enjoy!
We are music-mates: I share your thoughts on momentary lapse (awful record), I do find the division bell mediocre. The final cut is a Waters' album but is far from being as bad as people rate it (well crafted songs even if not really inspired)and Atom Heart is a brilliant record. Only discrepancy : The wall, I liked it a lot but the fourth side is a "skip side" and there are too many fillers
Cheers... I respectfully disagree about side 4 of The Wall though. I think it's epic and a necessary wrap up of the album, but I guess everyone hears different things. Glad you're on the same page with my other choices though. Cheers for watching. 🤠
@@alansteadreviews Thank you for answering! A swap between Animals and The Wall would match our rankings but what is interesting is listening to other point of views: I am deeply respectful and interested about what other persons think and feel. That said, as far as my understanding goes, I will never understand those who claim that MLOR and the DB are great records. DB is well crafted but very few moments manage to surprise and involve my listening experience. I thought that my perception coud have been a general one but it is not the case
While I can understand your possibly disliking Pros and Cons and Radio KAOS, Amused to Death by Roger Waters is better than the 2 1/2 Gilmour Floyd albums, better than almost all of the other solo albums in general, and even better than the Final Cut, which I did enjoy. More should be above Umma for sure.
I'll give Amused to Death another go at some point. Sometimes I warm to albums that I don't initially like so always worth a go. As for Ummagumma, it has always been more exciting than More for me personally. When I was in my teens/early twenties I really loved it cos it was so weird.
In fairness - so as to not solely focus on the typo here, The Wall and The Final Cut are a very different type of Pink Floyd sound and not everybody's cup of tea which is fair enough.

I think that's a Song Thrush at the start of Cirrrus Minor. Nice to see Piper so high up the list too.
Gotta love Piper!

the wall and finel cut are crao
they're what? a central retinal artery occlusion?
@@xsm5525 no, it was just a typo. They meant to write "the wall and finel cut are crvo" (central retinal vein occlusion). Easily confused with CRAO.
