Pink Floyd (minus Roger Waters) just released their album “The Endless River” to mixed reviews. The band is one of the biggest rock n’ roll bands in history, with some immortal records like Wish You Were Here and The Wall. Their songs have reached mass popularity, leaving some of their best work relatively unknown.

Chafic Atallah brings to us a list of Pink Floyd’s most underrated work.

Remember a Day

If

Summer 68′

Fearless

San Tropez

A Pillow of Winds

Biding My Time

Childhood’s End

Obscured By Clouds




Astronomy Domine

Matilda Mother 

The Fletcher Memorial Home

Two Suns in the Sunset

Wot’s… Uh the Deal

Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun

    The list is strange; Astronomy Domine and Set The Controls is not underrated. They are featured on most of Pink Floyd’s greatest hits compilations.

    Matilda Mother, Remember A Day, If, and Fletcher Memorial Home are among the standout tracks on their respective albums.

    You also chose songs off their most obscure (pun intended) albums, like More and Obscured by Clouds, yet missed Ummagumma or post-Waters albums like Momentary Lapse of Reason.

    Also you didn’t explain WHY they are underrated.

    If I had to choose, and although it’s not even a month old, but Louder Than Words off The Endless River is highly underrated (as seen from message boards and forums).

    I come in peace 🙂

    And where is “Yet Another Movie”, one of my fav from “AMLoR”? As above, “Astronomy…”, “Set…”, “Fearless” shouldn’t really be treated in underrated category.

    Obscured By Clouds was the first CD I bought by Pink Floyd, by far the best before Dark Side. And I Agree with Ali Sleeq about “More” but there was another soundtrack “Zambriskie Point” which had some Floyd which was pretty good. “Crumbling Land” comes to mind.CH

    all pieces mentioned above are for me the best ever (the rest, too). maybe because indeed, aren’t so popular like the wall or wish you were here ore “money” from the dark side. from the beginning of time i was a fan. i am 50 now, first song heard was Matilda mother and chapter 23 on a magnetic tape. i didn’t miss anything from them.

    Has anyone heard Absolutely Curtains? God I’m still speechless. I couldn’t believe it was Pink Floyd song. Feel it’s highly underrated.
