| Ummagumma (Music) | comment |
Ummagumma is the fourth studio album and debut live album by Pink Floyd, released in 1969 through Harvest Records, marking the band's first release on the label. Although the live half of the album remains popular to this day, the studio half of the album generates strong mixed feelings and is often viewed (even by the band itself) as a failed experiment. Whether it was or not, it remains an oddity in the Floyd catalogue, particularly because it's essentially four solo albums in one; each member got half an album side (about 10 minutes or so) to play with. Despite its eccentricities, the album remains a fan favorite and one of the best-selling pre-Dark Side releases, going platinum in the U.S. (sales of at least one million copies) in 1994, likely because the first disc was the only official live album from that era available until the release of the Early Years box set.Preceded by More. Proceeded by Atom Heart Mother. | |

Face on the Cover: The group shown in a Droste Effect, in the final example of this in their studio album discography (Meddle and A Momentary Lapse of Reason would feature photos of the band in the gatefold interior, but not on the front cover). | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Ummagumma (Music) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: A major example from their post-Syd Barrett years. Less psychedelic or progressive (though the concept of the album at least is progressive), more experimental and avant-garde. The album cover also actually features the band members. | |

Gratuitous Panning: At the end of "Grantchester Meadows", a bee buzzes from speaker to speaker, followed by a person trying to swat it. | |

Epic Rocking: Really, the only song on the entire album that isn't an example is "Several Species of Small Furry Animals". All the others are at least 7:26 long. | |

| Ummagumma (Music) / int_8409a385 | comment |
Exactly What It Says on the Tin: "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict" is indeed several species of small furry animals (a sped-up Roger Waters making animal noises) gathered together in a cave and grooving with a Pict (Waters again). | |

Brief Accent Imitation | |
| Ummagumma (Music) / int_be6f7ae7 | comment |
Brief Accent Imitation: Roger Waters imitates a Scottish accent on "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict", an imitation he reuses for the shouting teacher and cook in The Wall. No doubt helped by the fact that his mother was Scottish. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Ummagumma (Music) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: "Sysyphus" is a reference to the Greek mythological character of the same name, who was forced to push a rock up a hill until eternity in the Underworld. The album cover for the soundtrack of Gigi appears on the cover of this album. Out of fear of copyright infringement, it was airbrushed off the cover on the original version in some regions. "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict" quotes Jimi Hendrix's "The Wind Cries Mary". | |
