Good song for a chilly southern hemisphere day. Think I should put on another jersey and drink a holstein of beer.

"(c) David Gilmour Music Ltd"
Released by EMI Records on Monday 17 September, the double DVD contains over five hours of viewing, including an on-the-road documentary and guest appearances by David Bowie and Robert Wyatt.
One critic described David Gilmour's 'On An Island' Royal Albert Hall concert, as 'a near-perfect gig, where the magic kept coming, as did the surprises'. Now music fans, who may have missed the 2006 tour, get a chance to share in that magic, with the release of this double DVD, lasting more than 5 hours, which includes the rave reviewed London concert with special guest appearances from David Bowie, Robert Wyatt, David Crosby and Graham Nash as well as 2 hours and 40+ minutes of extras, notably an amazing fly on-the-wall documentary following Gilmour and his band on tour. A 20-page booklet accompanies the DVD.
The two and a half hour concert features band members Richard Wright of Pink Floyd, Phil Manzanera of Roxy Music, new boy Steve DiStanislao on drums, plus Pink Floyd regulars Dick Parry, Guy Pratt and Jon Carin. was lucky enough to see this live, FOS was one my favorite, right after the amazing 23 minute perfect rendition of Echoes. His attack on the closing solo was fantastic |

Funny, all the elements of later PF material are here. Enjoy this even if the band feels a tad embarrassed. |

I'm guessing it's cuz he was still being pressured to play (and write) like Syd Barrett at this point. I think he's done a remarkable job of impersonating Barrett on this track. But Gilmour certainly has a very distinct and impressive guitar sound, so I can see why music from his early involvement with the band would not be his favorite. |

I love this song! Thanks Bill! I am glad I happened to be listening now. I have been asking our local radio station to play this for three freakin' years! I love the guitar - a pretty simple solo but so soulful...

I had Atom Heart Mother on a reel of tape around 1971-1976, recorded from the album owned by a Dutch exchange student who enlivened my parents' house for several months, Jan Ryn Pruntel, I think he spelled it. (Are you out there, Jan?) Fifteen years later I bought it on a CD. I don't listen to it a lot, but when in the right mood it's still sublime. The experimental rock symphonic piece occupied side one of the album; on the flip side were three songs ("If," "Summer '68," and this one), followed by the sonic story "Alan's psychedelic breakfast."
