time / the great gig in the sky. i know they're two separate tracks but the great gig in the sky works too well as a coda for time to leave it off. i love how they use a voice instead of a guitar for the lead on that piece as well. those two pieces combined form what i consider to be one of the best representations of floyd i can think of. it's what i would play to someone who hasn't heard them before to introduce them to the band. you get a feel for their experimentalism, psychedelia, waters' introspective lyricism, and their ability to change the mood of their music without sounding convoluted.

echoes is a close second.
