From the list, Fat Old Sun.  The Narrow Way Part III, otherwise. There are so many though.

And this is why PF is my fav group.  There are very few songs that I don't like and many that are truly outstanding.  "Let There Be More Light" for this poll

"Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun". Simply brilliant. 

And the live versions from "Pompei" and "Ummagumma" are even better.
I shook my head and smiled a whisper knowing all about the place

Wouldn't exactly call "Domine" obscure. Would've picked something like Chapter 24 or Flaming from Piper.

I went with Let There Be More Light. Always a favorite of mine from my favorite early Floyd album.

One of my all time favorite Floyd tracks.
      this song is a pure jewel a classic floyd piece , anyway this album is unforgetable , i think except one of these days , meddle first side is very underated ,a pillow of wind is a floyd top imo , this album should be seen as much important as dark sideThumbs Up

You want a real obscure PF song?


What about "Corrosion in the pink room"?

I love those clips.  Thanks Zravkapt and Oliver. It helps to re-affirm why Pink Floyd was my favourite band for so many years.

Incidentally, like m2thek, when I saw the topic's title I, thinking it a not so obscure reference to Obscured by Clouds, would focus on that album.

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution
