Ummagumma, maaaaaaaaaaan.

[somebody evidently fiddled with the knobs]

The whole album is great and “Careful With That Ax, Eugene” is a classic.

;D

I was digging the Pink back in the 70s.

[yeah, I’m old]

The NASA scientist predicting a double-top for Cycle 24 is misleading on two counts:

1. Double-tops are the rule rather than the exception. See the chart on Post #12 to see that Cycle 23 had a clear double-top. This is because the North pole and South pole flip independently, often about a year apart.

2. The second top is usually about the same size as the first, so it won't rescue a "failed" Cycle 24.

Japanese solar scientists are seeing evidence that the Sun may fail to fully flip this cycle--stuck with two South poles with the "North pole" emerging along its equator in a complex four-pole configuration. This weakened magnetic field may stay in place for 30-40 years, which theoretically also happened during the Maunder Minimum.

Nothing wrong with that! I already enjoyed some of their early 70s era songs. But had not ever heard, or heard-and not known of Pink Floyd or their earlier work! “Put Down That Axe, Eugene” is really creepy! I like “Flaming”, and “Watch Emily Play”, “Arnold Layne”, and last, but not least- “Astronome Domine”! There was a strangely spacey, psychedelic ring to some of them, particularly “Astronome Domine”, wasn’t there?
