Poll: How do you rate Pink Floyd's "Atom Heart Mother" album?

I loved this album and bought it on day of release. I still love it and play it on a regular basis. Great music

 

So, in order of popularity (by score alone) so far it's:

1. Wish You Were Here
2. Piper At The Gates Of Dawn
3. The Wall
4. Obscured By Clouds
5. A Saucerful Of Secrets
6. Pulse
7. The Division Bell
8. Ummagumma
9. The Final Cut
10. The Endless River

Iiiiiinteresting....

 

Overall I love it. But Adam's Psychadelic Breakfast Part 1 is my all-time favorite piano/keyboard piece, definitely.

 

Does anyone know if there is a released version of the Suite with tracks indexed?

 

Also John Prine, John Lennon, Leonard Cohen.

 

Fat Old Sun reminds me of 1983 by The Jimi Hendrix Experience, and I can hear the origins of the Super Furry Animals on Summer '86.

 

Quite crap. The suite is not impressive at all; some of the following songs have a low key charm.

 

The only thing I find somewhat surprising is the low ranking of The Final Cut. That said, although I think The Final Cut is a very good album artistically, depending on the mood of the listener, it can be quite unpleasant.

 

I realized I may not have time tomorrow, so here we are, a little bit early!
Poll: How do you rate Pink Floyd's "Delicate Sound of Thunder" album?

 

Clearly one of their best works.

 

The quad mix is a revelation. I get it now.

 

A very solid effort, one of their best even. I spin it often.

 

Hmm--so we're missing Dark Side, Animals, More & Momentary Lapse.

I think I can guess how at least two of those will rate.

 

AHM is one of those few lp's along with Bowie's Ziggy Stardust where I far prefer live versions of the material over the studio versions. The only studio track on AHM I really like is Summer '68.

 

Don't forget Meddle! That's also missing Delicate Sound of Thunder and Is There Anybody Out There?.

 

Oh yeah, jeez, how could I forget Meddle? Some good stuff coming. The live albums I've never listened to.

 

Not in English but wanted to share this fascinating footage.

 

Great album, Summer 68 and Fat Out Sun both are amazing.

 

I watched this footage a while ago. Wondering why this is not in the Early Years box set...
Cambridge St/ation included a german newsreel of their UFO performances, so why is that Austria thing not in Devi/ation?

 

Agreed. That is odd it should have been in the big box.

 

Amazing track! I use it as one of my iPhone alarms actually. It had a clear influence on OMD's "Forever Live and Die as well

 

Love it.Especially APB.

 

A bit late to the thread ....

A pretty solid effort - worth recommending

wonderful atmosphere , the music is dramatic, psychedelic and experimental with lots of beauty, the music takes you to a journey to a peaceful and mesmerizing landscapes of lakes ,gardens /forests and beautiful farms.

No Tea & Biscuit /cookie to any member of the band ( in the present and in the past) until they admit that Atom Heart Mother is an excellent and beautiful album

Marmalade rules!

 

I'll take '68 over Fat Old Sun.

 

It's my morning rock lp of choice.
