Paperback. Condition: New. 'a fantastic read . . . witty and incredibly detailed' - Brain DamageBy the late 1960s, popular British prog-rock group Pink Floyd were experiencing a creative voltage drop, so they turned to composer Ron Geesin for help in writing their next album. The Flaming Cow offers a rare insight into the brilli…ant but often fraught collaboration between the band and Geesin, the result of which became known as Atom Heart Mother - the title track from the Floyd's first UK number-one album. From the time drummer Nick Mason visited Geesin's damp basement flat in Notting Hill, to the last game of golf between bassist Roger Waters and Geesin, this book is an unflinching account about how one of Pink Floyd's most celebrated compositions came to life.Alongside photographs from the Abbey Road recording sessions and the subsequent performances in London and Paris, this new and updated edition of The Flaming Cow describes how the title was chosen, why Geesin was not credited on the record, how he left Hyde Park in tears, and why the group did not much like the work. Yet, more than fifty years on, Atom Heart Mother remains a much-loved record with a burgeoning cult status and an increasing number of requests for the score from around the world. It would appear there's still life in the Flaming Cow yet.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Celebrating more than 50 years of the groundbreaking Atom Heart Mother. By the late 1960s, popular British prog-rock outfit Pink Floyd were experiencing a creative voltage drop, so they turned to composer Ron Geesin for help in writing their next album. The Flaming Cow offers a rare insight…into the brilliant but often fraught collaboration between the band and Geesin, the result of which became known as Atom Heart Mother the title track from the Floyd's first UK number one album. From the time drummer Nick Mason visited Geesin's damp basement flat in Notting Hill, to the last game of golf between bassist Roger Waters and Geesin, this book is an unflinching account about how one of Pink Floyd's most celebrated compositions came to life. Alongside unpublished photographs from the Abbey Road recording sessions (the only ones taken) and the subsequent performances in London and Paris, Geesin goes on to describe how the title was chosen, why he was not credited on the record, how he left Hyde Park in tears, and why the group did not much like the work. The Flaming Cow rose again, firstly in France, then in London in 2008. After 50 years Atom Heart Mother remains a much-loved record, and The Flaming Cow explores its new-found cult status that has led to it being studied for the French Baccalaureat. AUTHOR: Ron Geesin is a professional musician, having composed numerous film and television soundtracks, including Sunday Bloody Sunday and The Body (with Roger Waters). He co-wrote Atom Heart Mother with Pink Floyd. 30 colour, 120 b/w illustrations Celebrating more than 50 years of the ground-breaking Atom Heart Mother Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardback. Condition: New. The Adjustable Spanner Volume II gathers together revelatory information arising from Ron Geesin's first book, and combines it with further detailed analysis of manufacturers and biographical details of inventors.

The Adjustable Spanner Volume II gathers together revelatory information arising from Ron Geesin's first book, and combines it with further detailed analysis of manufacturers and biographical details of inventors. Described with warmth, detailed knowledge and a dash of humour, and set agains…t the backdrop of parallel developments of the Industrial Revolution, this book brings the enthusiast up to date with continued attempts at design improvements to this iconic absurdity. Celebrating the global influence of Richard Clyburn's transverse rack and worm design which set the modern standard for adjustable spanners and concluding with an overview of how the adjustable spanner is now manufactured and used worldwide, this book will be an invaluable asset to bookshelves of both the collector and the industrial historian. AUTHOR: Ron Geesin played piano in a jazz band for four years before forging a solo career in London. He has composed music for the feature films The Body and Sunday Bloody Sunday while co-composing Pink Floyd's first gold album Atom Heart Mother and making music and sound for the media in general. In addition to his musical passions, Ron has been researching, collecting and photographing adjustable spanners for over thirty years and is now recognised as a world authority on what he himself describes as an 'obscure branch of mechanical absurdity'. Stimulated by readers reactions to The Adjustable Spanner History, origins and development to 1970, Ron Geesin determined to write a short supplement comprising the new information. This soon expanded and demanded a new book because of the breadth and depth of the new material, which inevitably led on to further discoveries. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
