The sounds of Mind Your Throats Please continue in the background, while snatches of Breast Milky, Father's Shout, and Funky Dung are heard overlaid on each other before the main theme reappears triumphantly once again. In this section, many various bits of the previous sections 'remerge' only to be born away again on the tide of eddying musical ideas. The title may have been inspired by some of Roger's work with Ron Geesin on The Body soundtrack. (e) Mind Your Throats Please 2:35 (15:24)Ī bizarre, effects-laden section reminiscent of Revolution 9. The piece then returns to the main theme. Roger's funky, rhythmic bass introduces this section, dominated in the first part by the four Floyds only (especially Dave's guitar), and later bringing in the Choir (at 13.20) to sing strange nonsense syllables, as well as a few recognizable words. The piece then becomes choir-dominated as everyone joins in. Mother Fore begins with another Geesin-created duet, this time between Rick's organ and a member of the choir. Because many CD versions of this album do not divide the Suite into its titled parts, the time in parentheses indicates the approximate position of the CD timer at the beginning of each section (there is occasionally some overlap).īreast Milky begins as a duet for organ and viola, and slowly brings in guitar and other instruments. The erratic brass melodies return, before surging into the main theme once again. The piece begins quietly, then Ron Geesin's 'stuttering' brass leads into the main theme of the Atom Heart Mother Suite.
