Pink floyd atom heart mother back9/15/2023 ![]() The cover was designed by Hipgnosis and was the first album of Pink Floyd's to not feature the band's name on the cover, or contain any photographs of the band anywhere. This album was commercially successful on it's release, but the band members, especially Roger Waters and David Gilmour, have had several negative opinions on it. This was Pink Floyd's first album to reach #1 in the UK Charts.Ī remastered CD was released in 1994 in the UK and the United States, and again in 2011. It was released by Harvest on 2 October 1970 in the UK and by Capitol Records on 10 October 1970 in the US. It was recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London, England. To me not just sideways, but a bit backwards.Atom Heart Mother is the fifth studio album by Pink Floyd. Their approach and sound drastically changed. I find DSOTM the turning point, where they went from a cohesive band that could literally make ANY song, to a group that realized they could make money. Yes the 4 big commercial ablums have been played to death, and that is a big part of it, but also many simply did not realize the earlier stuff was good, due to many reviewers citing DSOTM and forwards as being the big selling commercial time, and not giving the older stuff a chance. Most very casual floyd fans, only like DSOTM, Wish, Animals, Wall, but the real creative period with very inspired music, that has real emotion and heart, and are 4 guys really just having fun, doing what they want, is all BEFORE DSOTM. 30 years ago, I would have totally agreed with you.īut looking back over many years hindsight, the 4 big commercial albums are still good musically, but the importance of the pre-DSOTM stuff, has finally come to the forefront. ![]()
