“Stay” is a song from Pink Floyd’s 1972 album Obscured by Clouds. It is known for being one of the album’s particularly slow-moving, lyrical songs. It was also issued as the B-side of “Free Four”. The lyrics, written by Roger Waters and sung by Richard Wright, vacillate between frustration and indifference felt towards a casual sex partner (perhaps a groupie). In this regard it is not unlike Wright’s own “Summer ‘68″. Musically, the main theme and verse of the song stays on a pedal point of G in the bass, while the chords above it change in a typical I-IV-V progression (G, C, and D Major). The D Major over the G bass results in the appearance of a G Major ninth chord, evoking a “melancholy” or “bittersweet” feeling. The chorus modulates to the parallel minor, with a chord change of G minor to C Major, a common progression in Wright’s compositions. (See “Pow R. Toc H.”, the “Funky Dung” section of the “Atom Heart Mother Suite”, or “The Great Gig in the Sky”.) Because this chord change evokes a ii-VI progression left unfinished (it would have to resolve to F Major), the effect is appropriately dissatisfying, as the chorus delves into a profusion of barely-related chords, a convoluted but eventually successful attempt to resolve back to G Major. The instrumentation is mostly Wright’s piano and Waters’s bass, with a solo and other ornamental touches from guitarist David Gilmour making heavy use of clean Wah-wah pedal….

“Free Four” is a Pink Floyd song written and sung by Roger Waters, from the album Obscured by Clouds. The song begins with a rock and roll count-in; but in this case Pink Floyd decided to play with words and record, “One, Two, FREE FOUR!”. The song deals with themes that would become standard for Waters in albums following this, notably his father’s death and the “evils” of the record industry. Although the song is mellow during the lyrical portions, the guitar solo surprisingly launches into a heavier tone, with a progression that is reminiscent of the instrumental “One of These Days”, capturing the classic Pink Floyd guitar sound. “Free Four” was released as a single in 1972 and reached FM radio’s top 50 list. A later Pink Floyd song lyric, 1983’s Not Now John, would re-use the “One, two, free four” phrase (but not as a count-in)….

“Mudmen” is an instrumental track from Pink Floyd’s 1972 album Obscured by Clouds. The tune is similar to that of the third track on the same album ‘Burning Bridges’ but develops the themes and leitmotifs of the tune further, with the time signature changed from 6/8 to 4/4. It is the last piece credited to Wright/Gilmour until “Cluster One” from their 1994 album The Division Bell….

“The Gold It’s in the…” is a song from Pink Floyd’s 1972 album, Obscured by Clouds. It was recorded at Castle Hérouville near Pontoise, France in 1972. This is the fourth track on the album, which tells the story of a traveler looking for excitement, “They say there’s gold and I’m looking for thrills”. The song is noted for it’s “rock and roll” sound, rather than the progressive rock style that the band is known for. Line up: David Gilmour – Slide guitar and vocals Roger Waters – bass Nick Mason – percussion No contributions from Richard Wright….

“When You’re In” is a track from Pink Floyd’s 1972 album Obscured by Clouds. It is entirely instrumental. This song, along with Obscured by Clouds, was played live in late 1972 and usually opened shows on the 1973 The Dark Side of the Moon tour. The live performances were often an extended version which allowed David Gilmour to perform a guitar solo and Richard Wright to add a Hammond Organ and Mini-Moog solo. The title came from a catch phrase used by the band’s former road manager Chris Adamson: “I’m in. And when you’re in, you’re in.” The song was also covered by the progressive metal band Tiamat, as a track on the Signs of Life Pink Floyd tribute album among others….

“Burning Bridges” is a song from Pink Floyd’s 1972 album Obscured by Clouds. It consists of an organ melody with Richard Wright and David Gilmour singing with lyrics by Roger Waters.
