Obscured By Clouds is Pink Floyd in soundtrack mode: shorter songs, hazy atmosphere, and a transitional glow between Meddle and The Dark Side of the Moon. Released on Harvest in 1972 for Barbet Schroeder’s film La Vallee, Obscured By Clouds gives a clean Pink Floyd, Obscured By Clouds, Harvest, progressive rock, soundtrack, and early-70s Pink Floyd anchors. The album includes Obscured By Clouds, When You’re In, Burning Bridges, The Gold It’s in the..., Wot’s... Uh the Deal, Childhood’s End, Free Four, and Stay, with the band moving between instrumental texture and concise songwriting. It is less monumental than the surrounding landmarks, but that is part of the appeal: a looser, earthier Floyd record with strong atmosphere and deep-catalog character. Works for Floyd collectors who already know the major titles and want the film-score side of the band with real songs in the mix here.
