3 stars Pink Floyd album from some period not too far from their "floydian" sound. For me, there are two parts of that album. First - Atom Heart Mother ( of 6 pieces) is absolutely perfect example of early prog. 23+ minutes long (!) composition has everything was strong in prog rock of that time. And even later PF works will never give you same example of that style.

All other songs are kind of psychedelic beat mixture. Plenty of acoustic piano, mellow sound, melodic,but simplistic pieces - all that is quite usual for psychedelic sound of the time, but still don't have that unique floydian signature on it.

I think that this album is still mixed bag, strong 3,5.
