Recording began with the drum and bass parts, recorded in one take for the entire suite, resulting in an inconsistent tempo throughout the song. Pink Floyd performed it live between 19, occasionally with a brass section and choir in 1970–71. At 23:38, it is Pink Floyd's longest uncut studio piece. It appeared on the Atom Heart Mother album in 1970, taking up the first side of the original vinyl record. ' Atom Heart Mother' is a six-part suite by the progressive rock band Pink Floyd, composed by all members of the band and Ron Geesin. But, as a whole it’s awful schmaltzy and a little vapid.Musical composition by Pink Floyd and Ron Geesin 'Atom Heart Mother' And, there are sounds that draw pictures. As Impressionism, it’s occasionally effective, but on a very imitative level. It turns out to be an Impressionist orchestral sketch of (I think) a morning that includes some rock elements. The best that can be said for it is that it’s craftsman-like and that in spite of its many parts, it’s an entity. They use orchestral elements and a choir. Their last album, Ummagumma, while a bit drawn-out, had all their best elements.Ītom Heart Mother is a step headlong into the last century and a dissipation of their collective talents, which are considerable. Pink Floyd used sounds no one else thought of and could make them lyrical besides.

Most other groups, when they thought in terms of electronics, thought only of painful feedback. And their music, if it wasn’t memorable, reached into the limits of their experimentation. Their use of a third, rear, sound source anticipated quadraphonics. Their work in the electronic capabilities of rock was more advanced than most people recognize. At one time, Pink Floyd was far-out, freaky even.
