I'd have to go with "Facelift", although the whole album is terrific!

i always loved out-bloody rageous. firstly, its intro(and similarly the outro) is what i am really expecting from a canterbury scene band. i mean psychedelia at its best; a simple continuous melody and there comes the saxophones. also the saxophone part through the end is beautiful.

I love all the songs, however, I feel that Moon in June is the most memorable (it's the only song I can really remember the melodies from now). So my vote goes for it.

Facelift.
 
Tough call though. Excellent album.

Nice, I was just listening to this album in my car and I come home to see this poll! My vote for Moon in June, I feel like I can play that song over and over, just for Wyatt's singing, bass, and keyboards Shocked

Slightly All The Time.

Something about the hypnotic groove in this song just makes me happy.
