I've been loving this album all over again.

Hadn't spun it in quite awhile. I am put off a bit by the sound, but songwise it has some real doozies!

No! I will fall.  I even can't do a jump rope!   ;D
No, have some faith....just give it a go and remember that you're a beginner and be kind to yourself....and give yourself some time to try something different.  Maybe you won't become a "star tango dancer", but be kind to yourself in terms of self-criticism and just try it?  You never know what skills you might be able to develop....and new fun hobbies/passion that might come from this.  Give yourself the chance.  :)

Best wishes,

PD

I have many hobbies, but I should try as I like dancing.  ;D

Nice!

Not really, Manabu. I never really liked this album to be honest.

I still occasionally give albums a spin that I did not like in the past to see if my opinion has changed over time.
This was such a case but my opinion has not changed since I first heard it a long time ago now.

When I was around 12 y/o, this album and the first album of Pink Floyd were my fav music.

I was never a big fan of the early Pink Floyd music.
I preferred their middle to later music.

I've come to like Piper at the Gates of Dawn very much. I've never heard the Saucerful of Secrets album, but I should chill more with Ummagumma.

Ummagumma was my first exposure to PF and has remained my favorite - but I am not much of a fan otherwise.

I think I was a big fan of Syd Barrett, the original leader, more than Pink Floyd.  :)

I started to seriously listen to music because of Piper at the Gates of Dawn when I was around 10 y/o. While the Japanese album included See Emily Play, I don't think the USA album had it. All the songs were memorable, but I especially liked Lucifer Sam, Flaming, and Take Up Thy Stethoscope and Walk.

I have a feeling that you will dig Saucerful of Secrets.  ;D   Plus such a nice cover art.
