You are listening to the genuine Hi-Fi stereo sound transferred from the actual vinyl record in the best possible quality.

Ummagumma is the 4th album by English rock band Pink Floyd. It is a double album and was released on 7 November 1969 by Harvest Records. The 1st disc consists of live recordings from concerts at Mothers Club in Birmingham and the College of Commerce in Manchester that contained part of their normal set list of the time, while the 2nd contains solo compositions by each member of the band recorded at EMI Studios (now Abbey Road Studios). The artwork was designed by regular Pink Floyd collaborators Hipgnosis and features a number of pictures of the band combined to give a Droste effect. It was the last album cover to feature the band.
Although the album was well received at the time of release, and was a top five hit in the UK album charts, it has since been looked upon unfavourably by the band, who have expressed negative opinions about it in interviews.
