Meddle is the sixth studio album by English progressive rock group Pink Floyd, released on 31 October 1971 by Harvest Records. It was produced between the band’s touring commitments, from January to August 1971. The album was recorded at a series of locations around London, including Abbey Road Studios and Morgan Studios.

With no material to work with and no clear idea of the album’s direction, the group devised a series of novel experiments which eventually inspired the album’s signature track, “Echoes”. It is the first Pink Floyd album to feature lyrics credited only to Roger Waters. However, most of the vocals were performed by David Gilmour, with the exception of “One Of These Days” which features spoken words from Nick Mason, “San Tropez” sung by Roger Waters, and “Echoes” which is sung both by Gilmour and Richard Wright.

The cover, incorporating a close-up shot of an ear underwater was, as with several other Pink Floyd albums, designed by Hipgnosis, though Storm Thorgerson was unhappy with the final result.
