The cover shows the members of the band, with a picture hanging on the wall showing the same scene, except the band members have switched positions. (It would have been one of only two songs on the record to include Syd Barrett as a writer.) Other sources have claimed that the song was dropped because of a conflict over the music publishing rights. The track was dropped at the last minute, some say to maintain the sound fidelity of the record, but numerous test pressings with the original track list were given to friends of the band, including John Peel. The band had also recorded a live version of 'Interstellar Overdrive' (from The Piper at the Gates of Dawn), intended for placement on side one of the live album. In footage of the band rehearsing for a Royal Albert Hall appearance in 1969, one of the band members can be heard, off camera, quietly chanting the word 'ummagumma'.ДЄlthough the sleeve notes say that the live material was recorded in June 1969, the first disc of Ummagumma was recorded live at Mothers Club, Birmingham, on 27 April 1969 and the following week at Manchester College of Commerce, on the second disc included four solo segments, one half-side of vinyl each by, in order: Richard Wright, Roger Waters, David Gilmour, and Nick Mason. However, some band members have since stated that the word was 'totally made up and means nothing at all'.

The album's title supposedly comes from a Cambridge slang word for sex, commonly used by one of Pink Floyd's friends and occasional roadie, Ian 'Emo' Moore, who would say 'I'm going back to the house for some Ummagumma'. Side A is a live album of their normal set list of the time, while side B contains individual compositions by each member of the band recorded as a studio album. Ummagumma is a double album by Pink Floyd, released in 1969 by Harvest and EMI in the United Kingdom and Harvest and Capitol in the United States.
