5 stars I like the fact Floyd havn't held back with this record like ummagumma and gone for broke in an experimental fashion. The first time i heard this i thought that it was absolutely brilliant and i couldn't pick one fault with it. Years later i listen and i still have the same feelings but what really comes across is how this record stands out from the Floyds other works. I cant compare it with the others because of the Geesin influence which makes it sound unique. (heavy orchesra and brass on Atom H Monther and sum 68)

The whole album seems so well structured with the powerfull Atom Heart Mother then the individual middle pieces then finishing with the relaxing and dreamy Alans Psycedelic Breakfast. The Rick Wright song Summer 68 is the most joyfull and uplifting which gives the album a great balance.

Overall i would describe this album as a fantastic individual sounding album. If only the other Floyd fans would stop comparing this to the other great albums they would probobly appreciate it more.
