"More" Album Description:

In the late 1960s, amidst the cultural revolution and artistic exploration, Pink Floyd, the iconic British rock band, embarked on a unique musical journey with their soundtrack for the film "More." Released as a 12" Vinyl LP Album, this particular edition, the 5th UK/England release, stands as a testament to the band's contribution to the era's musical landscape.

The soundtrack, a creation of Pink Floyd's artistic prowess, was born from a collaboration that offered both creative freedom and financial support. The band was granted £600 and complete ownership of all the material they produced for the film. This deal not only demonstrated the growing recognition of Pink Floyd's musical prowess but also marked a significant departure from traditional industry practices.

The album, housed under the record label EMI Columbia SCX 6346, encapsulates the sonic experimentation and atmospheric elements that Pink Floyd was becoming known for. The stampers, with markings YAX 3868-1G / YAX 3869-1G, bear witness to the meticulous craftsmanship that went into the production of this musical gem.

Released in 1969, in the heart of a transformative period in global culture, "More" found its place among the artistic expressions that challenged conventions. The film itself, directed by Barbet Schroeder, delved into the counterculture of the time, and Pink Floyd's soundtrack seamlessly complemented the visual narrative.

Several tracks from the "More" soundtrack persisted in Pink Floyd's live set list until 1971, underscoring the enduring quality of the compositions. Songs like "Cymbaline" and "Green is the Colour" not only enriched the film but also became integral parts of Pink Floyd's live performances, leaving a lasting impact on audiences.

Front Cover of Pink Floyd's 'More' Soundtrack – 5th UK Release (1969)

This highly stylized album cover blends vivid psychedelic colors and photographic manipulation, evoking the surreal and exploratory nature of Pink Floyd's music. The image features a rocky path winding through a barren landscape rendered in electric blue and lime green tones. On the left, a silhouetted figure walks barefoot, with one arm raised in a triumphant or reaching gesture. The figure appears otherworldly, almost glowing against the deep magenta and orange sky.

On the right, a tall windmill dominates the horizon. Another silhouetted person stands near its base, pulling a long rope attached to the sail, suggesting motion or effort. The windmill is stylized with sharp, glowing lines outlining the blades. The entire scene is imbued with a dreamlike, hallucinatory quality, likely enhanced using solarization effects common in late 1960s visual art.

The top left corner shows the EMI and Columbia logos in stark black-and-white contrast, signaling the label's prestige. The bottom right of the cover reads: "Soundtrack from the film MORE – played and composed by the pink floyd", with the words “MORE” and “pink floyd” in bold, large font, establishing this release’s cinematic and musical identity.

Back Cover of Pink Floyd's 'More' Soundtrack – 5th UK Release (1969)

This monochrome back cover of the 5th UK release of Pink Floyd's "More" LP is a minimalist contrast to the psychedelic front. Dominating the top left is the film credit block, listing director Barbet Schroeder, production company Jet Films, and actors Mimsi Farmer and Klaus Grunberg. Pink Floyd is credited for both composition and performance.

The tracklist is presented in two columns, for Side One and Side Two, with individual songwriting credits attributed to Waters, Wright, Gilmour, and Mason, showing the collaborative nature of the compositions. Below this, the publishing credit to Lupus Music and the design credit to Hipgnosis are printed in bold, along with a ©1969 statement indicating full band production.

The lower right corner includes a small EMI/Columbia logo with text denoting the label's origin in Hayes, Middlesex, England. A yellow price sticker with “Code 60” appears on the upper right, along with the catalog number SCX 6346.

The lower half of the cover features a black-and-white photo of two figures—presumably characters from the film—sitting on rocky terrain, overlooking a misty valley. Their clothing and seated posture suggest intimacy and contemplation, visually tying the music to the movie’s themes of youth, freedom, and isolation.
