Pink Floyd - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (7270 words)
The album was a hit in the UK where it peaked at #6, but did not get much attention in North America, reaching #131 in the U.S. During this period, the band toured with Jimi Hendrix, which helped to increase its popularity.
The next record, the double album Ummagumma, was a mix of live recordings and unchecked studio experimentation by the band members, with each member recording half a side of a vinyl record as a solo project (Mason's first wife makes an uncredited contribution as a flautist).
The album was another transitional piece for the group, hinting at future musical territory such as "Echoes" in its ambitious title track.
