Album Notes
OBSCURED BY CLOUDS is the soundtrack to the movie of the same name. Directed by Barbet Schroeder and starring Bulle Ogier and Jean Pierre Kalfon, the movie was originally known as "La Vallee".The new repackaging of OBSCURED BY CLOUDS includes an expanded booklet with many rare photos, lyrics and revised front cover artwork.Pink Floyd: David Gilmour (vocals, guitar); Richard Wright (vocals, keyboards); Roger Waters (vocals, bass); Nick Mason (drums).The last in Pink Floyd's series of '70s film-inspired works, OBSCURED BY CLOUDS, like much of the band's music, has a cinematic feel. In retrospect, however, the album sounds like a warm-up for, or even a collection of high quality outtakes from Floyd's next and greatest album, DARK SIDE OF THE MOON. The opening (title) track is the sort of proto-ambient music that Pink Floyd helped pioneer and, with its spooky slide guitar, sounds uncannily like some of Eno's work with U2. After another instrumental, the album takes a more traditional, song-based turn and the next seven tunes cover a dizzyingly diverse array of styles, from stomping, Grand Funk-style hard rock to gentle ballads like "Burning Bridges" (which recalls Hendrix's "Little Wing") and "Stay." "Childhood's End," a funky psychedelic number, sounds like a work-in-progress version of DARK SIDE's "Time." David Gilmour, especially, is in top form on OBSCURED. Whether creating Robert Fripp-esque soundscapes or blistering Clapton-style blues solos, Gilmour always plays for the song, effortlessly walking the thin line between guitar hero and ensemble musician. Throughout, the band weaves a beautiful, yet decidedly un-flashy, tapestry of sound that makes for a subtle, varied and ultimately essential Pink Floyd album.

Obscured isn't the sort of album you have on at top volume where you sit right in front of the speakers, it's to have on in the car in the background whilst having a chat, becasue it's a 'soundtrack'.
I'm not saying I have anything against this album, it's just that there's some far better stuff from the band out there. The only particular thing I hate about this album is that awful 'Absolutely Curtains' song. Does anyone know what it's supposed to represent?
Obscured By Clouds isn't quite up there with Dark Side Of The Moon and Animals, but miles better than Piper At The Gates Of Dawn and The Final Cut.
