Fyodor from Denver, CoMe and a friend years ago theorized that Atom Heart Mother were three things that were sources. It's like they built their later music around this song. You can hear the very earliest Floyd combined with what would later come in DSOTM, WYWH, and even Animals and The Wall. It's 23 minutes of everything they've ever did. For me, this is the Pink Floyd song that sums up most of their stuff. Nevertheless, the "Atom Heart Mother" album cover appears in a scene where the main character, Alex, is at a record store.

Pink floyd atom heart mother suite full#
Oddly, Pink Floyd never made a full psych-folk album in the vein of “If” and Gilmour’s “Fat Old Sun,” which becomes even more of a shame when they end Atom Heart Mother with “Alan’s Psychedelic Breakfast,” a cut-and-paste assemblage of sounds that never coalesces into much of anything.Atom Heart Mother is the fifth studio album by the English progressive rock band Pink Floyd.

In particular, Waters’ “If” stands among his best compositions, and with his low vocals and Richard Wright’s breezy piano, the song actually brings to mind Nick Drake’s first two records (trivia: Drake’s producer, Joe Boyd, also helmed Pink Floyd’s first single, “Arnold Layne,” in 1967). The results are somewhat better, though, and almost uniformly folksy. The second half borrows the least productive idea from Ummagumma and divides songwriting duties among the band. In this case, they cast an orchestra and a choir as the leads, and the horn fanfare and choral harmonies hint at the even more ambitious arrangements throughout that decade. But “Atom Heart Mother”-all six movements-at the very least shows the band developing and entertaining new ideas, consciously moving away from the space rock label they’d been saddled with. Yes, the album stretches its six-part title track across an entire LP side, and yes, that suite meanders wildly and seemingly without purpose, as though they’re making it up as they go along but getting distracted almost constantly. They’re not exactly wrong, but they’re not exactly right either. Roger Waters and David Gilmour have spent 40 years playing this 1970 album down, labeling it pompous, overblown, embarrassing-a low point in the band’s creative history.
