I'll just say the entire Nektar - Journey to the Centre of the Eye album and be done with it.
 
 
No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

"Ummagumma" is my second favourite Pink Floyd album ("Animals" always has been the first) and it features, in my opinion, even better version of "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun", but for me, with all due respect, it's more like German experimental psychedelia i.e. krautrock than the space-rock genre.
