'Echoes' from Meddle is great but other than that I think the album preceding Dark Side 'Obscured by Clouds' is better and displays even more of what you would eventually hear on Dark Side.
"Meddle" owns and "One of These Days" is one of the best songs they've ever doneI don't disagree with any of that but have you listened to 'Obscured...'?
Obscured By Clouds is a good set of songs, but it doesn't flow like Meddle or Dark Side of the Moon. Meddle has that audible journey that Pink Floyd albums take you on.
Good post, I agree with everything in it except there's still that one thing from your first post that 'Obscured' trumps IMO. "Good set of songs" or not it still has more songs leaning toward the 'Dark Side' sound than Meddle does. I'm not taking anything away from Meddle at all, it's awesome IMO.
BTW when you say 'audible journey' are you talking about concept albums which they are probably the kings of:
