I have this one - it's a weird collection of various and occasionally humorous studio experiments.
Especially funny is a track dedicated to his old friend and golf-partner Roger Waters. It's called  "To Roger Waters wherever you are" and features voice/wind/fire and 83 electronic bagpipers.

I also find it funny, that on the back cover you read "FILE UNDER: RON GEESIN" - making a little mockery of harvest records, where you can read similar instructions, though usually in the form of "File under POPULAR : Pop groups" (this particular example is taken from pink floyd's ummagumma)

I'm all for inclusion.

I promise this will be my last attempt to add an artist to the psychedelic section Smile.

Ron Geesin is known mainly for "Music from the Body", a soundtrack composed with Roger Waters published in 1970 and for being one of the authors of the PF Epic "Atom Heart Mother".  He had a big influence on Waters' use of gimmicks, as he was a master in the use of tapes and loops. I'm aware of two solo albums:

"As He Stands" and "A Raise of Eyebrows".
