One of These Days

Recorded in London during the Meddle sessions in 1971, with work split between Abbey Road Studios, AIR Studios, and Morgan Studios. The track was cut by Pink Floyd with recording by John Leckie, Peter Bown, Rob Black, and Roger Quested. As the opening track on Meddle, it announced the album’s heavier, more experimental direction and became a live favorite for the band. Its bass-led structure and spoken intro gave Pink Floyd one of their most recognizable early-1970s statements. The track remained a staple of Pink Floyd live sets and later appeared on key compilations and concert releases, extending its reach beyond Meddle. Its riff-driven momentum and surreal vocal hook kept it one of the band’s most enduring instrumental-era signatures.
