According to Moore, he made up the term himself. The album's title supposedly comes from Cambridge slang for sex, commonly used by Pink Floyd friend and occasional roadie, Iain 'Emo' Moore, who would say, 'I'm going back to the house for some ummagumma'. Nevertheless, the album has been reissued on CD several times, along with the rest of their catalogue.

It was the last album cover to feature the band.Īlthough the album was well received at the time of release, and was a top five hit in the UK album charts, it has since been looked upon unfavourably by the band, who have expressed negative opinions about it in interviews. The artwork was designed by regular Floyd collaborators Hipgnosis and features a number of pictures of the band combined to give a Droste effect. The first disc consists of live recordings from concerts at Mothers Club in Birmingham and the College of Commerce in Manchester that contained part of their normal set list of the time, while the second contains solo compositions by each member of the band recorded at EMI Studios (now Abbey Road Studios).

It is a double album and was released on 7 November 1969 by Harvest Records. Ummagumma is the fourth album by English rock band Pink Floyd.
