I played all their albums to death when I first got into them years ago. These days Wish You Were Here is probably the only one of their albums I ever listen to start to finish. Such a great album.
^ Yes, me too, though I skipped a few albums along the way. Wish You Were Hear has some good material, but the title track doesn't measure up to this track from three years earlier, imo:-

^ I agree. Atom Heart Mother is the album I voted for in the poll here. To me it strikes just the right balance between the slightly hit-and-miss experimentation of their earlier albums and the suffocating perfectionist polish of their later stuff.
These days the prospect of listening to PF doesn't appeal to me at all. I get a lot more pleasure out of Xurtio's very own The Deportation Tapes album, so thanks again for that, Xurtio!
