This is tough for me but I would have to say I enjoy side 2 better. If it wasn't for TGGITS, then I would enjoy them both equally. All of the songs are great, it's just that I've never liked TGGITS. The piano intro is really nice, but Clare Torry's vocals are just an assault on my ears. Sorry. :(

wow...what a question...kind of like choosing which of your twin children you like better....the album is a masterpiece from beginning to end, and as Rick Wright said - the album is really a song...and it was only because they didn't have CDs back then that the whole idea of "Side One" and "Side Two" was forced upon them. But - if I had to choose - I'd have to say I prefer Side 1....with Breathe, On the Run, Time, and Great Gig - I mean - it gets no better than that. Money has been played to death by classic rock, and maybe...just maybe....Us & Them might be SLIGHTLY overrated (don't throw things at me)....Brain Damage & Eclipse close out the record as well as you could possibly hope for. The record is a masterpiece from top to bottom...but - man...I'd have to pull for Side 1 if I had to.
