Goodbye Blue Sky is one of those songs I remember hearing on the radio as a kid before I had any idea who Pink Floyd was. It struck me as different than anything else I regularly heard and it has stuck with me ever since.

The track was originally called "The Amazing Pudding", though Geesin's original score referred to it as "Untitled Epic". A refined and improved version (with Geesin's written parts) was played at Bath Festival of Blues and Progressive Music on 27 June. Its name was changed after the band were due to play an "in concert" broadcast for BBC Radio 1 on 16 July 1970, and had needed a title for John Peel to announce it. Geesin pointed to a copy of the Evening Standard, and suggested to Waters that he would find a title in there. The headline was: "ATOM HEART MOTHER NAMED", a story about a woman being fitted with a nuclear-powered pacemaker.
