Just reverting to its long abandoned use, reclaiming the fame it had in those days of yore

That’s an unfortunate name for the cavern!

A cavernous ashhole is apt to be abused.

You wouldn’t want to party at the Ashhole?

Worst Pink Floyd album of all time but a groove if tripping.

I’ve partied in his basement but didn’t know he had a cavern too.

“Worst Pink Floyd album of all time but a groove if tripping.”

Yeah critics say so. :-) Ummagumma was a radical album for its time period and a snapshot as to what that band was like in the early days. I saw PF a year after that album and their stage act was considerably better than the album.

Early on PF was a generally unknown psychedelic underground band and pioneers in live quad sound. Fours later they produced DSotM.

Not the song so much.....the album Ummagumma.

Even Pink Floyd admits it was terrible.

I’m sure the anthropologists would have eagerly kicked these people in their Ashhole.

What’s the problem? It’s been used for BBQ and parties for thousands of years.
