Astronomy Domine is hardly obscure........ it's probably the most famous Barrett track after See Emily Play or Arnold Layne!

I don't think any of those tracks are obscure. Not to Floyd fans anyway.

This one's tough... Some great choices here. Wots... Uh The Deal isn't getting much love here, I guess I'll go with that. Really completed ObC.
Nothing to say here. Nothing at all. Nothing is easy.

I didn't quiet like Wot's... uh the deal so much on the original Pink Floyd version, but the live version on Remember that Night has slowly been growing on me, it's a rather nice song. Now I need to hear the original once again to see if I like it better now.

Astronomy Domine, though I wouldn't call it obscure myself.

too easy with Astronomy Domine sitting there - perhaps in the top 10 all time best PF track.

Certainly not 'Astronomy Domine' for me. Either 'Cymbaline' or 'Wot's ... Uh the Deal' ... . Not 'Fearless'. For some reason I'm running dry on that one. Those aren't obscure anyway, except for 'Wot's ... Uh the Deal'. I would definitely not go with 'Let There Be More Light'. ... I could go with "other". Hm ... I could go with 'Julia Dream' or 'Paintbox' ... or 'Remember a Day'. They are all 5/5 to me. Uh, who cares? They are under "other", so I'll go with "other". Depends on the mood. As of the time of this writing, let it be ... oh, boy Ermm ... 

Paintbox !

Fearless. One of my favorite Floyd tunes. You'll never walk alone!

I have just noticed that in the title of the thread obscure is in "quotes" ... "obscure" ... .

^ Thanks for being the first one to notice Smile I know its not really "obscure," just to me at the time when I started to listen to early Pink Floyd.

I was going to vote "Other" and suggest "Mudmen".
But then I noticed the Meddle cut off point.
So " Let There Be More Light" it is then!

I quite agree.  I love Summer '68.  I'm also fond of It Would Be So Nice and all the songs on MORE that Gilmour hates.  And Zabriskie Point.  And Syd's eccentric delights.  Would rather hear Lucifer Sam than Comfortably Numb in concert.
