One Sunday afternoon in 1971 I was bored out of my mind and started fiddling with a radio receiver my father built from a kit. Randomly scrolling up and down the dial, I came across this amazing and baffling piece of music. It was all instrumental and combined electric guitar, drums, bass, and keyboards with orchestral strings, horns, choir, and sound effects like motorcycles and who knows what. The song was already in progress when I came upon it. I listened until the end, ecstatically captivated by its creativity, diverse sound world, and melodic/compositional qualities. But the DJ never said the name of the song or the band's name. I was furious! They must have announced it before the song and didn't think to reiterate it ... Wanker. The following year, my 8th grade music teacher played us Pink Floyd's album Ummagumma as an example of "drug music." (Oddly, she referred to it as that, not in condemnation, but just sort of as a fact, as if "drug music" were a genre.) That was my first conscious introduction to Pink Floyd. I remember being confused by the experimental stuff on Ummagumma but I was intrigued. When my older brother went to college and came home to play me Dark Side in 1974, that's when Pink Floyd really hooked me. I started buying up their back catalog. Imagine my surprise and delight when I put on Atom Heart Mother for the first time (some years after I first heard Dark Side) and was reunited with that mystery song that I had heard back in '71. It's still a favorite of mine. One of the shining peaks of PF's career, IMHO. Thanks for the video!

@@annamariaisland1960 Early Waters songs and lyrics are a very different experience. I have no problem with his later messages, but I love that we have a lot of earlier stuff where his inspiration was just making something that fit a movie's soundtrack. His songs like Green is the Colour and Cymbaline just sound beautiful with lovely imagery. I don't know how he looks back on those now, but I think he could have written any kind of music with any type of lyrics. He was quite theatrical and would adapt his work to the script.

I thought it was so cool towards the end when he talked about the song "If" and said that it would have worked better if it had been split up into different parts. That's what Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets does (which works out brilliantly) they begin playing "If" and then launch into some of the epic parts of Atom Heart Mother and end it with the rest of "If". There was just so much creativity that went into this album, and so much beauty. It's just one of those albums that you listen to, but can sort of also see inside your mind. One of my top five PF albums, and definitely one I have listened to more than most of their other albums.

As a Brazilian, I still vividly recall the Summer of '68 airing before the "Jornal Nacional," leaving an indelible mark on my mind. This gave rise to various urban legends. Alongside this, there was another related program on the same channel, a series of short documentaries, featuring an opening soundtrack from a movie. Many people claimed it was Floyd, but it took me a while to uncover the truth - it was actually "Freedom of Expression" from the movie Vanishing Point.

Some great footage here, and some new knowledge for me! Thanks for all your hard work, I know you put into these. I do have a live copy of Alans Psychedelic Breakfast from Sheffield (University)? Though I'm more of a 'later' Floyd fan, this was a great insight to the album.

AHM was My first Forage into Floyd beyond DSOTM & the WALL, love this period of the band. "More" Soundtrack (Fav) and Obscured by Clouds r not mentioned here surprisingly.. Great Doc!

A brilliant dive into the story of this project. The input of talented creators from outside Floyd elevated what could have been a mess. The "pict" provided some fantastic auralscapes. If Alldis improved the choir parts as said he a real unsung hero. The initial theme by Gilmour was beautiful, but not enough to carry 20+ minutes. In a time with lousy lo-fi equipment everywhere, I don't think this was heard by the public as intended. Only a bit later, when better equipment was available, is that the world rediscovered this important piece. And for me that album was the precursor of my taste for Oldfield's Ommadawn.

probably my favourite - genius album, adventurous and imaginative! PF at their prime (and yeah I love everything they did up to and including Animals - a different kind of love for Wall and Final Cut, but I do like them, especially the latter).

I recall getting the vinyl version of AHM in my late teen years, then on CD a few years later. I liked the early years of the band, which gets no radio play except on obscure radio stations at night. A true fan would appreciate that music. I wish that the Alan Aldridge work was available. He was a great graphic illustrator, and Gilmore was at his gallery show a dozen years ago.

Thank you, this was very enjoyable. I consider myself well versed on the band and I learned a few new things. For instance, I don't recall ever hearing about the "The Adventures of Rollo", that was something new.

I've already watched the original upload, but now that it's reuploaded, I'm gonna watch it again. Why not, eh? It *is* my favourite album of all time after all. You did an incredibly good job with this documentary, and that's coming from someone who has tried doing the same two years ago and gave up due to exhaustion due to all the information I was finding.
