The discography of the English rock group Pink Floyd consists of 15 studio albums, four live albums, nine compilation albums, five box sets, six extended plays, and 27 singles. Formed in 1965, Pink Floyd initially earned recognition for their psychedelic or space rock music, and, as they evolved, for their progressive rock music.[1] The group sold over 250 million records worldwide,[2][3] including 75 million units sold in the United States.[4]
Pink Floyd first achieved success in the London underground music scene, when the group was led by Syd Barrett.[5] The group signed a management deal with Peter Jenner and Andrew King in October 1966, becoming Blackhill Enterprises,[6] and recorded a demo late that year in order to attract record label interest.[7] They subsequently signed with EMI Columbia and released their first single, "Arnold Layne" on 11 March 1967,[8] followed by the album The Piper at the Gates of Dawn in August.[9]
Barrett's behaviour eventually led him being replaced by guitarist and singer David Gilmour; he officially left on 6 April 1968 and both he and Gilmour appear on the second album, A Saucerful of Secrets.[10] The album was also the first of several released by Pink Floyd to feature distinctive cover artwork by Hipgnosis.[11] After Barrett's departure, the band released a soundtrack album (More) and subsequently Ummagumma (1969). The album was released as a double disc, the first disc containing songs performed live, the second containing new studio-recorded songs.[12] The following year's Atom Heart Mother was a collaboration with Ron Geesin featuring an orchestra and choir,[13] with Meddle following in 1971.[14]
The band achieved worldwide commercial success with The Dark Side of the Moon (1973), which has sold more than 30 million copies,[15] and been reissued as a Quadrophonic LP and 5.1 surround sound Super Audio CD.[16] It was followed by Wish You Were Here (1975), Animals (1977), and The Wall (1979); all except Animals reached number one in the US.[17] The Dark Side of the Moon is one of the best-selling albums in the world[18] and The Wall is the highest-certified multiple-disc album by the Recording Industry Association of America.[19] Pink Floyd released few singles after Barrett left the group, though "Money" was a US top 20 hit, and "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2" was a number one hit in the UK and US.[20]
Bassist and singer Roger Waters gradually became the dominant and driving force in the band from the mid-1970s until his departure from the group in 1985, declaring Pink Floyd "a spent force".[1] Waters sued to dissolve the group's partnership and retire the name, but dropped the suit the following year.[21] The remaining members, led by Gilmour, continued recording and touring as Pink Floyd, releasing A Momentary Lapse of Reason (1987) and The Division Bell (1994).[22][23] A further album, The Endless River followed in 2014.[24]
Artwork[]
All Pink Floyd albums feature distinctive artwork. Most covers do not feature the band members, and many do not feature the band name or any text either.[25] Ummagumma was the last album to feature a group photograph on the front, with a breakdown of their musical equipment on the back.[12] Atom Heart Mother features a Friesian cow (named Lulubelle III) on the front cover, deliberately chosen as a reaction against the group's psychedelic image.[13]
The cover of The Dark Side of the Moon was designed by Hipgnosis in collaboration with graphic designer George Hardie, and features a line drawing of light being refracted in a prism. The original packaging included additional posters and stickers. It has become one of the most recognisable rock album covers.[26] The cover of Animals features an inflatable pig moored to Battersea Power Station that broke free and drifted into airspace.[27] The Wall features a minimalist design on the front cover, while the inside sleeve shows cartoons of the principal characters in the story, both created by Gerald Scarfe.[28] Hipgnosis' Storm Thorgerson returned to produce the cover for A Momentary Lapse of Reason, which featured a row of beds on Saunton Sands.[29][30] The compilation Echoes: The Best of Pink Floyd features a composite piece of artwork created by Hipgnosis combining several past album covers.[31]
The CD packaging of the live album Pulse included a light emitting diode on the spine, powered by batteries. This gave a visual "pulse" when the CD was stored on a shelf, with the battery expected to last up to a year.[32]
