Music From the Body or Muzak From the B*tty?
Ron Geesin & Roger Waters - Music From the Body (1970)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itPHF7lLS24&list=PLB--yRp2J0bHOcmL0lgcrUUTy87c5bpg0
So, Rog' out of "The Floyd" teams up with that great eccentric Scotsman, composer and musician Ron Geesin to record a musical meander through the human body.
This would've been recorded when Geesin was arranging and co-composing the Atom Heart Mother suite from side 1 of the album of the same name by Fink Ployd.
Anyway, this was one of my favourite 'getting really stoned on drugs' LPs when I was a teenager/early 20s-ager.
I haven't listened to it in ages though.
Side 1
1. Our Song
2. Sea Shell and Stone
3. Red Stuff Writhe
4. Gentle Breeze Blew Through Life
5. Lick Your Partners
6. Bridge Passage for Three Plastic Teeth
7. Chain of Life
8. Womb Bit
9. Embryo Thought
10. March Past of the Embryos
11. More Than Seven Dwarfs in Penis-Land
12. Dance of the Red Corpuscles
Side 2
13. Body Transport
14. Hand Dance - Full Evening Dress
15. Breathe
16. Old Folks Ascension
17. Bed-Time-Dream-Clime
18. Piddle in Perspex
19. Embryonic Womb-Walk
20. Mrs. Throat Goes Walking
21. Sea Shell and Soft Stone
22. Give Birth to a Smile
I'm pleased to say that my copy of it has the Rog 'n Ron's funny faces on the label.

Ooh, foldover cover?
It was the sound track to some documentary I've never seen.
the final track features some other pop group in a surprisingly happy mood!

I wonder if Wendi has any idea whatsoever to expect?

It is a bit mixed?
Talking of which, where is T'Wendykins?

I thought you knew it quite well.
It is a bit mixed, but Ron takes up 70% of the slack.
So...
Zany!

That was more of a statement than a question, the ? was more a questionability of the word 'mixed' to describe the album.

Well, I've always liked it a lot.
I love Ron Geesin anyway.
Rog's songs are very nice too.
Especially "Chain Of Life".

I had a cassette copy with a replacement Virgin Records sleeve as the original had been nicked or something, had to spend ages tracking down the full track listing.
My gawd, that was probably about 30 years ago…
I've now got a one with the stupid faces on the label, and no EMI logo,

Is this Roger Waters showing his magnificent sense of humour, for which he's famous?

It's just occurred to me, typical hippies putting a naked woman on the cover to sell records.
