Richard Wright, who passed away several years ago, was their keyboardist, and in many ways I think he was the heart and soul of Pink Floyd.

I might be the only one here able to say this: I was fortunate enough to see David Gilmour playing this piece live in a theatre in London, maybe in 2007, alongside Ron Geesin conducting a small orchestra and a choir, plus a Pink Floyd tribute band. It was the only time Gilmour played AHM live since the early 1970s, and there were only 1,000 people in the audience. If I had died that day, I would have died a very happy man.

This era of Pink Floyd (1968-70) is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. After Syd Barrett (their first singer, songwriter, & lead guitarist) was replaced by David Gilmour, they spent several years trying out different things, and it wasn't clear yet what kind of band they were going to become. They worked on some movie soundtracks and came up with the crazy stuff you find on the albums Ummagumma and Atom Heart Mother. Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast and Biding My Time would be two more interesting songs from this time to check out. I think my initial reaction to all of it was "wow, that's different."

When Pink Floyd created the song 'Atom Heart Mother' a story was circulating in the press that a woman with a heart pacemaker had given birth to a child. A quite new technology at this time. Hence they decided to name the album and the song this way.

Sort of. They were playing the piece on the BBC and didn’t have a name for it yet. Somebody pointed out the article in the paper lying in the studio and the name was born. Prior to that onstage they were usually calling it The Amazing Pudding.

This album represents the first albumn where Pink Floyd were evolving from a psychedelic rock band to a prog rock band, they were experimenting. The evolution continued in the next album, Meddle, and then was completed in Dark Side of the Moon. If you listen carefully to this album you can hear echoes of what is to come. This was the first album I bought in 1971 when I was 14 and it completely sold me on Pink Floyd. I distincly remember the cows on the album cover.

I saw Floyd play this live at the Free Trade Hall. Manchester, back in 1970. I well remember when they started the second set (Side 2 of the Album) Nick Mason was on stage doing Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast, with huge bowl of Rice Krispies and 2 Pints of Milk ("Snap, crackle pop") and a hotplate cooking bacon in an enormous frying pan. The smell permeated all around the auditorium!! And Fat Old Sun, what a song. After which the played several of their earlier songs - Astronomy Domine, Careful With That Axe, Eugene, See Emily Play etc. A fantastic evening, never to be forgotten!

From the book ‘Their Mortal remains’ some background to the song ‘In October 1970, Pink Floyd welcomed the new decade with an album that bemused the critics and record company, but which became their biggost hit so far. The sounds on Atom Heart Mother were created by Pink Floyd, a choir, a brass ensemble, dripping taps, frying bacon and whistling kettles. And they were sold to the world with a photograph of a cow in a field. Throughout 1969, Pink Floyd performances such as The Massed Gadgets of Auximines at London's Royal Festival Hall had pushed the boundaries of what constituted a rock concert. The group brought a similar sense of adventure to the studio for Atom Heart Mother. The album's roots can be traced to a recording session in Rome in November 1969. Pink Floyd had been approached by the Italian film director Michelangelo Antonioni (of Blow-Up fame) to provide the soundtrack to his forthcoming counter-culture drama Zabriskie Point. But Antonioni was dissatisfied with most of the music they produced and the band returned home. Among the rejected pieces was a guitar figure, redolent of a cinematic Spaghetti-Western theme, which would become the starting point for Atom Heart Mother's side-long suite. This untitled 20-minute piece, with the working title 'Epic', was performed live before the group decided to add classical elements. At the time, Roger Waters and the Scottish-born composer and performer Ron Geesin were working on a parallel project. This was the soundtrack for a documentary film, The Body, for which they were creating music with conventional instruments and 'human noises' including breathing, talking and a beating heart. Atom Heart Mother would use a similar mix of conventional and unconventional sounds. Geesin's background in jazz and classical music made him an obvious choice to compose Pink Floyd's orchestral score. However, the recording session with the EMI Pops Orchestra, a group of seasoned, hard-bitten Abbey Road session musicians, was problematic. It was eventually decided that choral scholar John Alldis would take over to conduct both the brass and his own choir, which contributed the suite's celestial, wordless vocals. With its brass overture, solo cello, choral voices and special effects, including the sound of gunshots and whinnying horses, there was a cinematic quaity to Pink Floyd's new composition. The piece, still referred to as 'Epic' and, later, The Amazing Pudding', was performed live that year at the Bath Festival of Progressive Music. Its final title only came after Roger Waters spotted a headline in the london Evening Standard above a story about a woman fitted with a plutonium pacemaker.

Ok Stacey you have made my day again. This time one of my favorites and not just because at 16 this was the first Pink Floyd I ever heard. There is a constant buildup and release throughout this composition. I, like you, did not know what was going to happen, where this tune would go. It all culminated as that choir started the chanting section Trying to figure what they were chanting. It started building mystery and tension and then that voice rising out of the pulsing chant, I can't explain how that voice and the return to the original melody made me feel so free and blissful. Then we really go Pink Floyd and in the last sections you will hear sounds they will use in the next twenty years of their music. A virtuoso of coming joy for us fans. 1970 seems so long ago now but the impact remains unsullied by time. Thank you so much I am so pleased you found Pink Floyd and have allowed us to join you reliving our feelings listening to the greatest band ever to try to put the human experience into music. wow I am really rambling just like I was after hearing Atom Heart Mother.

This album shows that Pink Floyd was truly experimental from the beginning. This was 1970, 3 years before their masterpiece “Dark Side Of The Moon”

When I heard this in 1970, my head exploded, there was nothing like this before, or since. It does show the limitations of recording technology of the time, but Echoes was only a year later and shows significant development of multi-track recording. Still love the melodic quality of this, beautiful ❤

Didn't think you'd listen to such a track :D Last video I said: "Don't listen to Octavarium". Now I can confidently say: "Listen to Octavarium" The intro reminds you of Shine on you crazy diamond, the outro of welcome to the machine and one line of the lyrics are "careful with that axe eugene", another song of Pink Floyd. This is Dream Theaters masterpiece and it's definitely a journey and experience.

I would agree. Unlike some other reactors you don't shy away from the longer tracks, and for many groups their longer songs are amongst their best. Octavarium is a longer song with many different moods throughout and one of the best in Dream Theater's catalogue. I think you would enjoy it.

@@kenlansdowne7963 Agreed 100%. For me, Octavarium is Dream Theater's magnum opus - by far and away the best thing they've ever done. I know a lot of DT fans don't agree with me on this and that's fine but IMHO it's their absolute masterpiece, but Stacey, you really need to react to the live version from the 2006 Score tour - specifically the gig in New York - That's by a long way the best performance of Octavarium and kicks all kinds of ass that the studio version (incredibly good as it is) just cannot match.

There are now modern orchestras with live choirs are reproducing this album, amazing to watch. This was definitely there experimental period, the other album from this time is called Ummagumma which is very ethereal and space travelling. A double album the second record was where the band members were really experimenting with sounds from alternative sources. It freaks some people out but it is such a journey, a soundscape, you can’t stop listening, your ears are just so turned on, yet at times so mellow and comforting like a warm blanket and a relaxing breakfast, who new breakfast could be so entertaining and comforting at the same time.

Pink Floyd is a unique band in that it expresses life through music. You have to remember that this comes after a time where acid(LSD) had flown through consciousness and brought a unity to music expression. Sound is a primary aspect to our very well being and our life in general. It has a direct connection with our emotional state as does our sight. As this is one of their earlier albums you can hear the creation of later works through its perfection. This comes from the time when the music used to literally speak to people and could take you on a trip without really any spoken words. It really was great to be tripping while Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and others carried you through your journey.

This album was notable for many reasons. It was one of the first "Rock Band with Orchestra" albums, predated by a few months by Deep Purple's "Concerto for Group and Orchestra". The album sleeve, by Hipgnosis, was the first ever not to feature the band name and title or any track listings, there was only the famous cow on the cover and other cows on the back cover. It was the first album to have someone from outside the band recieve a songwriting credit, Scottish avant garde composer Ron Geesin who put together and arranged the Suite. Clare Torry eventually also got a songwriting credit for "The Great Gig in the Sky" a good few years after the release of "Dark Side...", but that's another story. The band have been highly dismissive of this album over the years, but it was their first No 1 album in the UK, as well as in other countries, so clearly many people, myself included, don't subscribe to that view. Obviously the Suite is the main reason people bought the album, Side 2 being more hit and miss with another of Roger's "pastoral" compositions "If" being the highlight, IMO, whereas "Alan's Psychelelic Breakfast" was more of a "filler". Your comment about it sounding like a movie score was interesting, as Stanley Kubrick approached the band wanting to use the music in his film "A Clockwork Orange". A request the band refused but the album cover does put in an appearance in a scene filmed in a record shop.

I think Rick Wright used two organs at this time. A Hammond tone-wheel type and an old Farfisa which he put through a tape echo - which gave it a somewhat otherworldly sound.

Counter-opinion: omg "Dogs" was awful, to the extent that Gilmour later said "Personally, I'm not that bitter" or thereabouts. It's dumb rage. I think the later piece "Dogs of War" was a lot more musically disciplined and thematically on point. Waters' whining tendencies just went to shrill sometimes. For that matter, Jethro Tull's "Thick as a Brick" laid out the whole sentiment in a much more engaging fashion.

An interesting choice, and really representative of their sound during the pre-Dark Side era. So many elements from this era would be distilled for later albums. Live versions without the orchestra/choir are also quite interesting, and evolved over time too. I particularly like Dave and Rick’s duet in place of the soprano voices for the live versions.

I agree with some comments: you just sit, hear Pink Floyd and let time fly away! You don't have to be so worried about the meaning of a song like this - you just hear and feel it! I've heard it for the first time some decades ago and so far all I know is that it is such a wonderful composition and one of the tracks of Pink Floyd's "cow album", as we say here in my country! Deal with it! 😅 But I'm glad that, in your PF's journey, you are curious about the earlier years of their career. So, if you want any suggestions of their old hits, here you are: "Summer 68"; "If"; "Fat old sun". Nice journey for you, and remember: get ready to always be surprised!

What we listened to is the peak and at the same time the end of the avant-garde psychedelic period of the band's work. The song climbed to the top of the charts thanks to the very short-term popularity of avant-garde and psychedelic music, sending stoned hippies into a state of narcotic trance. To put it in modern terms, the band successfully "hyped" in the mainstream. It was not only the heyday, but also the beginning of the end of the hippie movement and the popularity of psychotropic drugs among young people. The band will find its own way in music, its original sound and harmony only in the following year, 1971, in the album "Meddle". Pieces of this original sound can be heard throughout the early period of the band's work, but the "puzzle' will only come together in "Meddle".

Stacey-I have been a fan of Floyd for 55 years now and never get tired of them. I have really enjoyed your reviews and critique-you really appreciate arguably the best ever prog rock band, and it's good to see the younger generations being captivated as I was all those years ago. I have a request.. Please Please Please review my all time favourite song from the Pulse concert.. US AND THEM.. Truly beautiful anti war song with incredible keyboards and saxophone. The track finishes and melts into an instrumental "Any Colour You Like" an often overlooked piece from DSOM album so if you could tag that on too I would be forever grateful. Keep up the good work!

About 21 years ago (March 2003), this long suite was the music chosen by the Conservatory of Paris for the final essay / concert of their last year students. There's still a video here on KZfaq, although the quality, especially the video, is not very good, but still I think it's worth the while: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bZh9lrtk0rPIeXU.html . When I saw it, I thought it was sort of an acknowledgement of a "Modern Classical Music" status for this song 🙂. I just LOVE this thing. It's a journey, and covers all aspects of it. I see it as the musical equivalent of a literary "Journey of the Hero", and I may be wrong of course, but it's my personal feeling. When you say it sounds like a movie score, it shows how much story-telling capability this music has. 🙂 Thank you for choosing this one and react to it. It brought me some very fond memories. 🙂

Love the reaction. Atom Heart Mother (1970) is my favourite Pink Floyd album. Back in the day they were called THE PINK FLOYD. The definite article got dropped. Saw them a couple of times in the early 70s. A quick recommendation: Renaissance is the band Ocean Gypsy the song (or for a longer track from the same album, Song Of Scheherazade).

All time favorite band. Glad to see a reaction vid to something pre-dark side of the moon besides Echoes finally ! Their early stuff doesn't get nearly the credit it deserves.

The early Floyd were really all about contradictions. The Barrett era was about whimsical pop tunes interspersed with long improvisational avant garde jams. The following era that peaked with Atom Heart Mother was all about laid back country-inspired acoustic songs interspersed with more avant garde explorations, which you heard in full force around 17 minutes in to AHM. The mega success era was all about the flowering of Waters deep philosophical explorations merged with the flowering of Gilmour and Wright's emotional musical compositions.
