Which was the best Pink Floyd Album before they released Darkside of the Moon?

I chose Piper because that's the album I listen to most often apart from Animals.

I can't even sit through DsotM anymore - just burned out on hearing it too much, especially in pubs where people gleefully sing along to songs like Comfortably Numb, not even realising that the lyrics stand as an indictment of all that they are.

I've only got Saucer full of Secrets - some good tracks on it.

Into the Heart of the Sun is possibly the best, though...

Oh Yeah! "Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun" is an amzing track, its just so haunting, and it really conjures up images of a lonely spaceship for me. Classic track.

Piper At The Gates of Dawn is a whole different Pink Floyd, a sixties psycadelic experience complete with authenic hammond organ on tracks like stethoscope, another great one though. Astronomy Domine and Intersteller Overdrive are timeless classics.
