50TH ANNIVERSARY OF PINK FLOYD‘S ‘THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON’. OUT MARCH 24
Announcing the release of Pink Floyd’s ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ as a deluxe box set to celebrate 50 years since the release of one of the best-selling albums of all time. Newly remastered, the box set was released on 24th March 2023. Order here: pinkfloyd.lnk.to/DarkSide50th
One of the most iconic and influential albums ever, Pink Floyd’s ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ continues to find new audiences globally. The album was partly developed during live performances, and the band premiered an early version of the suite at London’s Rainbow Theatre several months before recording began. ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ is the eighth studio album by Pink Floyd, originally released in the US on 1 March and then in the UK on 16th March 1973. The new material was recorded in 1972 and 1973 at EMI Studios (now Abbey Road studios) in London. The iconic sleeve, which depicts a prism spectrum, was designed by Storm Thorgerson of Hipgnosis and drawn by George Hardie. ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ has sold over 50 million copies worldwide.
'THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON - LIVE AT WEMBLEY EMPIRE POOL, LONDON, 1974’
Simultaneously, on 24th March, the CD and first ever vinyl issue of Pink Floyd’s ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon - Live At Wembley Empire Pool, London, 1974’ will be released independently. It was originally recorded in November 1974 as part of the band’s winter tour and this is the first time it will be available as a stand-alone album, with artwork featuring an original 1973 line-drawn cover by George Hardie.
ANIMATED VIDEO COMPETITION
The 50th Anniversary release will also be celebrated as Pink Floyd invite a new generation of animators to enter a competition to create music videos for any of the 10 songs on the iconic 1973 album. Pink Floyd has a rich history of collaborating with animators from the beginnings of the band (Ian Emes, Gerald Scarfe etc.), and in some cases the visuals that accompany the songs have become synonymous with the music itself. The 50th Anniversary will be no exception. The band would like to give all animators an opportunity to present a fresh take on these timeless aural works. Animators can enter up to 10 videos, one per song on the album. A winner will be selected from a panel of experts which will include Pink Floyd’s Nick Mason, Aubrey 'Po' Powell (Pink Floyd's creative director) and the BFI (British Film Institute). The deadline for submissions is December 31st 2023. To enter and for more information go to www.pinkfloyd.com/competition/
PINK FLOYD - THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON: 50TH ANNIVERSARY BOOK
The book Pink Floyd - The Dark Side Of The Moon: 50th Anniversary will also be published separately by Thames & Hudson on March 24, 2023 to coincide with the box set release. Curated by photographer Jill Furmanovsky and art directed by Hipgnosis co-founder Aubrey Powell, this LP-sized volume showcases rare and previously unseen photographs taken during The Dark Side Of The Moon tours of 1972-1975 and was created with the involvement of the band members.
NEW PLANETARIUM ALBUM EXPERIENCE ANNOUNCED
Fifty years on, in recognition of the iconic album and with the help of huge strides in technology, an official full dome experience with stunning visuals of the solar system and beyond and played out to 42 minutes of The Dark Side Of The Moon, will be released in Planetariums around the world in March. Contact your local Planetarium for any screening details.
The show itself will be divided between the 10 tracks off the album, in chronological order, each having a different theme; some futuristically looking forward and some a retro acknowledgment to Pink Floyd’s visual history, all relating to a time and space experience, embracing up to the minute technology that only a Planetarium can offer. It promises to be immersive; an all-encompassing surround sound and visual treat that will transcend reality and take you way beyond the realms of 2D experience.

I'd like to thank pink Floyd for providing the soundtrack to my life!
@Kurt Thompson, exactly, me too ❤🙏🏻
Yeah
👍
To your life? That's a pretty fucked up life. Would you like to revise for your life? Lmao
Mine also
Rick Wright deserved to be around for the 50th anniversary. R.I.P.
Shine on Syd , shine on Rick 🌟
Acredito que esteja, num plano acima do qual nos encontramos agora, viva o Pink Floyd amém
The unsung hero of Pink Floyd
Awesome
Cigarettes man. The worst drug. And the hardest to kick for sure.
The best part of being old is seeing the reaction of young people hearing Pink Floyd for the very first time.
😂
I listened to dark side of the moon for the first time last week on the recommendation of my 19 year old apprentice who is mad on them. Amazing album
True. One day I was on the bus home. It was late night and the driver was listening to pink floyd's 'The Animals' and some people in their twenties were laughing and said it's so psychedelic 😁 yep, to the core
Yes - so true
I had this moment very recently. I’m a huge music nerd, but I’ve always leaned towards metal. A few weeks ago my dad sat me down and we listened to the wall together. I haven’t stopped thinking about it since. I connect deeply with the idea of building a wall around yourself to more or less protect yourself, but in doing so destroying yourself. I felt seen, and the music brought me emotions I can’t quite pinpoint. One of the greatest gifts my father has ever given me.
I've literally listened to this album THOUSANDS of times and have never gotten tired of it! Amazing!!
…and there are millions of people around the world that can relate to this…
I'm actually quite bored with it.
@@r423sdex well youre the only one then
me too It's never ever old. It's ageless to me
@@inanutshellnmore8927 Yeah, someone made a comment that they were bored with it! Must be a two year old.
Society will still be talking about this album 50 years from now when it is 100 years old. They truly made / captured something timeless about the human condition.
Yep. Life sucks.
aliens will play this one day and be blown away
A masterpiece ✨️
Todo pasara.. pero Pink Floyd permanecera por siempre en nuestros corazones y en las generaciones venideras❤❤❤❤❤
@@johnwest7993 turn that frown upside down lad
IMO, the greatest album of all time. Around '86 my 15 year old daughter asked me "dad, do you have Dark Side of The Moon"? Couldn't have been more proud. I think it's a timeless piece of work
Expressing feelings is not offensive. 🙏
Well she has fantastic taste, I should recommend xtc’s dukes of the stratosphere’s chips from the chocolate album, very piper at the gates of dawn-esque. I was raised on Beatles pink felons the who, zeppelin and countless others from my father, he couldn’t be prouder to have shared his passion on to me, what a great thing music is.
Agree it is beyond incredible Steve, and like millions of others thought "how the hell do you follow up after that?"... But for me they did precisely that with Wish You Were Here, which is my #1 PF Album.
she was taking LSD, probably
Hands down, the BEST album ever released by any band, EVER... A timeless classic that will never be topped...
The WALL exceeded it for me, it’s a matter of taste.
I was a 15 year old black teen living in Chicago in 1973 when I bought Dark Side of the Moon and I have been listening ever since!
Good taste, my man. 👍
Thanks for setting the scene Ronald. Easy to picture that time & place and how Floyd would fit right in.
I bet you got bullied for not listening to Motown music 😂Lol! Just kidding! Shine on you Brother!
Shine on brother. Love and grace from Perth, Western Australia
I was born in 1980 but I discovered this album in 1994 and it blew me away . I was hooked and went back to their catalog, wish you were here is also one of my favorites. But an amazing album still relevant to this day. David has a blues type feel to his playing, Darkside has to be one of most incredible albums ever created.
I’m 73 and I can’t imagine my life without this album. It had a profound effect on me.
Me too. Shine on and shine bright brother!
The album that changed my whole view about everything. Thank you Nick, Rick, Dave and Roger for THE wake up call.
That’s a cool comment
What did it change for you ?
And Syd
I first heard it in 73. I was 15. I can't say it changed my life but I loved the album. I can say that the book, Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon, changed my life in 2014. It blew my mind, and I've never been the same since.
@@r423sdex everything. i listen to Pink Floyd and now i have beautiful naked women in my life
One of the greatest albums of all time a masterpiece.
One of?
@@bradwilliams1691It's the best of the best
Two of my favorite rock albums of all time - “Dark Side of the Moon” and “Wish You Were Here”. Nothing else comes close.
Sgt.Peppers is a awesome album... Me 1st. Album..thanks Auntie Sharon 😸👍🏻
Can’t forget the wall
Animals is a great album.
Yes... And THE WALL... All 3 Masterpieces.
100% - and others like The Wall, however when it was released I was horrified. Probably took me over 30 years to really appreciate it!
Thank you for including Roger in this. He should absolutely be part of celebrating a truly unbelievable album ❤
Excluding Roger from this piece would be like excluding Lennon from the Beatles' documentary.
It would not be complete without Roger.
Rick David and Nick always did that, Roger is actually the one who doesn't include others and doesn't give others credit
I have just seen RW's concert in Madrid. There is a part where he projects on the screen a bunch of old picture of PF, particularly from the Syd Barrett's era. Not a single glimpse of David Gilmour. This is kind of sad, but at least their music will survive forever
@@hattrick6259 I love 💕 Roger but he's a miserable old Git😖
Saw Pink Floyd in concert for DSOM twice in 1973-what an experience-still one of my favs!!!! Nothing like 60's, 70's, 80's, some of 90's music!!!
I have no doubt that in the year 2073 this absolute masterpiece will again be celebrated.
It's not talked about much, but the four backing vocalists Doris, Lesley, Liza, and Barry also deserve praise. Let's meet again in 50 years Greetings from Tokyo🌈△🌈
Also Clare Torry.
The backup vocalists are etched into the fabric of my life. They absolutely deserve praise. Thanks for pointing that out.
@@kristlepicklesThank you for pointing out "The Great Gig in The Sky" There was clare in this song.I'm sorry, I was on the far side of the moon, so my discovery was delayed.🚀🌚👨🏻🚀
@@robm321thank you for your reply This wonderful album would not be complete without the backup of these unsung heroes.Rob-san, see you somewhere again🙋🏻♂️
Absolutely!
A little story worth sharing: I was 14 when this album came out, and I'll never forget the first time I heard it. A friend made me put on headphones, and I heard, first, the sounds of ticking clocks, and then the *awesome" beginning of "Time." I was instantly blown away, and from that moment on, my life would never be the same. As someone else commented, this is not only one of the greatest albums ever made, it is also one of the best ever to hear on headphones. All the sonic effects are absolutely masterful and spellbinding.
Ok Bruce...be honest...did you get ahold of some good micro dots or weed and then zone out on PF??😊
For me it was shrooms then red microdots in 1990
I was 14 too. My favorite album from my favorite bans. Animals would be #2. Or is it The Wall? Hard to choose.
@@floydiandreamscapes5145 14 was the *perfect* age for this to happen. :) As for their second best, I'd say The Wall. But they had so many great ones!
Every note, every decision, every knob setting...absolute perfection.
I find myself listening to you and thinking how grafetul i am to have lived along the same time as Pink Floyd. Every song is an absolute diamond, just like a very very expensive whisky, to be savoured and appreciated for its uniqueness and sheer quality. I hope someday within my years of life another Pink Floyd comes along for the generations to come feel the same thing that i do. Thank you for your music❤
Pink Floyd are like an Expensive anything.
I would not compare pink Floyd to commercial things, to me they're like air. Can't live without them.
I’m afraid this younger generation or at least most, will never experience or appreciate sheer, raw talent. Just like the marvel of the great composers like Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin, etc. I love all kinds of music, but today’s supposed talents are no comparison to what we were so fortunate to enjoy!! ✌🏻
@@lisagurkin3455 I think those artists are still out there today but sadly are being drowned out by all the commercial noise. Hopefully one day this generation will start to appreciate life in a way that we do.
@@bamafan-in-OZ you’re right! I guess I shouldn’t lump all of today’s generation in the same category. Me personally, from what I’ve heard of modern music, even today’s Country, just doesn’t compare. I guess that’s why I listen to classical rock all the time. I really haven’t liked anyone or band since the 90’s and I wasn’t keen on that straight away. I now really appreciate and listen to often, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, STP, REM, etc!! Now, that I think about it, I do love the appreciation and due diligence that is given to the more diverse, especially Women!! We’ve come a long way baby in some ways! ✌🏻
The best band ever, and my favorite forever.
An album that induces feelings and emotions that everyone can relate to. An album that becomes more relevant the older you get. An album that will be talked about until the end of time. Dark Side of the Moon is the story of you and me, us and them, and everyone in between.
Dark Side Of The Moon is far and away the greatest jazz/rock fusion album OF ALL TIME!!!
Yes. Yes it undoubtedly is
You are correct. I'd say greatest rock/alternative album but why quibble 🤟
It's in no way Jazz, but yeah great album.
Your music has helped me through my Dad's death after a quick battle with cancer. My Dad was a big Pink Floyd fan and I was too. The Great Gig in the Sky is literally everything to me and helps me think he crossed over to it. My Dad had a whole music store in his room and I have every single piece of work by them and I am extremely thankful for that! You're the reason I feel he is still here!
The Great Gig in the Sky is an anti-religious pisstake. Sheep on Animals is a sublime follow-up: The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want He makes me down to lie Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by With bright knives he releaseth my soul He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places He converteth me to lamb cutlets For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger When cometh the day we lowly ones Through quiet reflection, and great dedication Master the art of karate Lo, we shall rise up And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water
Don’t let the other person who replied to your beautiful comment get to you. Whatever one’s beliefs (and I know you weren’t promoting any), Pink Floyd at their best resonate with them. That is what great music does. Roger Waters of all people knows the pain of losing a father. I hope your dad is jamming with Richard Wright while I write this. Even if he isn’t, you are. Bless you and your dad.
@@rachelleonard9994 Waters' was de facto denied a dad, seeing how he died mere months after Roger was born. So his pain is more over what might have been, rather than loss like M Griffin suffered. My Dad (who died an awful death after yrs of decline due to dementia) was virulently anti-religious and atheist, so I guess that fueled my above response (echoing Waters). As Waters had nothing to do with Great Gig I guess I spoke out of turn; sorry
Best group ever in my lifetime ❤️, and I'm 73 years old. I can't even imagine all these years without Pink Floyd .They are the soundtrack of my life!!!
At 44, hard to argue with that. Radiohead is the only other band I've found that gets me to a similar headspace. My late teens and 20's belong to Floyd in this realm
I could drink to that.. cheers 🍺
I will drink 🍸 to that!!!!!!!!!
I was born 6 months after this album released. I know I heard this music while in the womb, after birth and throughout my early life. I rediscovered the music in my early teens when I started playing guitar. Pink Floyd has been with me ever since. DSOTM, Meddle,Wish you were here and Animals are some of the greatest albums ever made imo. For me, dark side is my favorite but I love them all.
The Dark Side of The Moon is as relevant today as it was 50 years ago. There are no words to fully describe what you 'ordinary men' have achieved here. Thank you Roger, Thank you David, Thank you Nick & wherever you are smiling down upon us from, Thank you Richard 🙌
For me, this is the greatest album ever released in my lifetime. Other Pink Floyd albums are great, but Dark Side is their masterpiece. it never fails to deliver, inspire, and reflect. It has a flow within it. Roger, David, Nick & Rick (RIP) what a team.
I really liked ummagumma personally. A person could have seizures listening to it without any other stimuli.
Every time I hear it I think 'just what I needed'
There's absolutely nothing in today's music that can in any way compare to the brilliance of Pink Floyd & DSOTM. I'm grateful to have seen their tour in 1973 at the Spectrum Theater in Philly. There were many phenomenal musicians in the 70's that sparked my love of music but little compared to DSOTM.
Try listening to the Beatles.
@runawaybride you better be joking or you really needs to run away with this pov😭
they are singular... would love to have seen them.
saw them in Detroit same year,,,,better than any drug I ever had,,,period
This music changed my life as a teenager...and my love for it has only grown 🤘😁🎸🎶❤️🎤
Same here. That band rescued me from an otherwise dreary existence. 14 was the *perfect* age to discover them :)
This album is an absolutely pure perfection, from the very first sound of the intro until the last note. I cannot say this about any other album, although I truly enjoy many others. Fifty [50] years later it stills gives me thrills.
To Mr. Barrett and Mr. Wright, you both made the world that always loves you a better place. Please rest in eternal peace. We miss you. 🤍🖤❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Syd continues to shine on so to Rick
@@mrnice7570 Absolutely.
This album is a gem I swear these guys are out of this world
Still the greatest album ever. Thank you Roger for being the greatest song writer in history.
For me it was Animals. I was too young to get DS when it came out
roger only wrote some songs. david and rick wrote the rest
@@wickedhouston5538Rodger wrote the majority of the music while he was in the band
@@seancloonan22Roger recently proved in his solo reimaging of Floyd's songs that "DSOTM" is nothing without Gilmour, Wright and Mason.
@@redacted2275 the whole is greater than the sum of its parts
I am a teenager again, only now I understand this album so much more than I did then. I am 64 but this music takes me back to a simpler time. Amazing.
Same age as you and bought this album in 1975 Brilliant🏴
Some of the greatest music of all human history. That is a fact. I love Pink Floyd
Always Pink Floyd!! Thanks. Big hug from Votuporanga SP
When my time has coming to farewell this world. I have asked for the whole album to be played on a set of headphones. This might sound morbid but this album is the greatest ever recorded from start to finish. 🙏🙏🎵🎵
What a great way to go!!!
This music is so powerful that you may wake up from the dead and listen until infinity......
They should be doing a 50-year anniversary tour. I'd pay a ridiculous amount of money to see that. Unbelievable.
Wow What a year I was born 50yr ago how time moves on fantastic album ♥
There's something special about the way this album was recorded, One of probably the 3 top analog recordings of the day (or even history?). Pink Floyd and Alan Parsons = masterpiece
Alan turned down the opportunity to work with them again on WYWH…..
History! DSOTM is in the library of congress
You can hear Alan’s influence in DSOTM when you listen to his music in APP. Little riffs, note structures, and the rest that you don’t hear in succeeding PF albums.
There will never be a band like Pink Floyd again. Thank you for given me thousands of ours listening to this amazing music. I was actually sitting in the sun today in my garden, listening to Delicate sound of thunder. Even live there sound is over the top perfect, like no other band in the world.
Listening to Pink Floyd is like embarking on an epic musical journey that transcends time and space....
TIMELESS ALBUM!! It’s a dream of mine to jam with these psychedelic astronomical human rights advocates!
One of the best albums of all time.. Pink Floyd will always be in the top 10.. 👍
I listen to the original pressings.🙂🎸🎼 Those are the best.
50 years have got behind me, and no one told me when to run!
This album changed my life from the moment I heard it, start to finish. It continues to do so. Thank you Pink Floyd for this masterpiece ♥️
Born to late too experience the release of dsotm. Born too early to literally fly to the dark side of the moon. Born just in time to celebrate its 50 years aniversary and enjoying this masterpiece
I first heard this album at age 17 in a friend's car. It blew me away, from the opening heartbeat to the final fading outro music and 'see you on the Dark Side Of The Moon' lyric. It's been my favourite album ever since. Sure, I get into plenty of other stuff at times but hearing DSOTM takes me away to a place no other music can.
My day starts with Pink Floyd & ends with it...thank you Pink Floyd for creating such beautiful music !
We were the most iconic events of that sweet year of 1973… happy birthday to me and to the DOTM.
It's profoundly beautiful how all of their individual creativity was a perfect fit for their band and the music they made. Sure they've since all done their own solo thing, but for that time in their youth when they could have been or done a million things, these four men came together as Pink Floyd and created some of the most amazing music ever conceived, and nobody else could be swapped in for any of them. What Roger, Dave, Rick and Nick created together was something only the four of them could have done, and we should all be grateful for each of their contributions because they all added into the iconic mix of instruments we're familiar with on one of the greatest albums ever recorded in rock history.
I listened to it all my childhood... then when I was "older" I finally got to listen in the uh proper state of mind. And I learned what it was made for. Thank you guys so much for this perfect work of art!
I think back 50 years ago when I first bought and heard the album. It still blows my mind today.
I was approching my 14th birthday when DSOTM was released - I played it and played it and played it trying to understand the songs and their meanings.This album is timeless and its my goto album when my brain needs some down time :-)
My 50th anniversary boxed set arrived yesterday! Next year, 14th October 2024, will be the 30th anniversary of my seeing the band performing the album live in concert.
Greatest album of all time. Period..
Best album ever! Has changed my life! There are many great rock bands, but Pink Floyd stands out as something exclusive.❤
Gilmore doesn't get enough recognition as one of the greatest guitarist. He,s absolutely brilliant
He is even better than waters on bass.
@@r423sdex I believe that.
He is and self taught which is amazing!!! Comfortably Numb is just straight fire.
He definitely gets credit from fellow guitarists. He’s brilliant. He’s not a shredder, so if number of notes per second is your barometer…..
@@r423sdex he never claimed to be a great musician his skill as a lyricist is outstanding
I am 62 and so much was going on in the 70s that only Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin and Detroit muscle cars plus the moon landings and Vietnam are still etched in my mind!
Pink Floyd forever!!! Ultimate musical masterpiece!!!!
Nothing will ever match or compare to the perfection of this album
This album shaped the way I listened too and viewed music. Some music is generic while other is sophisticated and while many have lyrics that inspire, others compel the mind to deep thought. The very musical notes themselves seem to be arranged in a way that speak to the listener in their own way. Adding a multi layered delight to those with a good set of headphones!
I hope your friendships overcome all oddities ... always prevail in forgiveness and love....
Love this special edition - such a treasure!
OMG..alot went into the making of this box set...unbeleivably awesome !
i was 15 years old when dark side came out,,,sitting in my bean bag chair,with headphones on,,best lp ever,,,,thanks floyd
I first heard it from a jukebox in a Hong Kong pub 30 years ago, and it was amazing.
My all time favorite band. 🤩 I miss the laser light shows in the planetariums. That was mind blowing.
100% We need those.
If you ever visit WA, the Pacific Science Center Laser Dome in Seattle every Friday at 7:30p… Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon! It’s an incredibly immersive experience!
I stop what I am doing whenever a song from this LP is on... glorious ! Thank you PF amen
Goodness the quality of the mastering and engineering still shine on this album 50 years later. Truly an artistic and technical masterpiece 👌
Seriously, Such a iconic Record Album! I’m a Vinyl Record Collector and have the entire Pink Floyd catalog on vinyl It’s really hard to believe that the Dark Side of the Moon 🌚 album is 50 years now.
pink floyd songs fill my darkest part of my life, my uni life
Мне уже 60 и я не перестаю слушать Пинк Флоид!❤
J'avais 13 ans, cet album m'a aidé à me construire. J'ai souvent crier pleurer et à chaque fois je reprenais du courage grâce à cet album. Merci Pink Floyd merci les gars.
Possibly the greatest album of all time.
No that's "Sgt. pepper lonely hearts club band". Pink Floyd as much as I like them have no hope of ever touching the Beatles. They are a magnitude of another level. The Beatles changed music.
it's up there, but as runawaybride says, you just cannot beat Sgt. Pepper for greatest album of all time.
The chorus vocal is like instrument of orchestra, beautyful ❤
From 10 to 5 years ago i listened to the full album every day. Every single day. Thank you.
My favourite band in the bloody universe.👍🏻🎸🇬🇧 Pink Floyd and the Beatles created brilliant music that effects my life everyday. Both bands are the greatest out of them all.
I LOVE PINK FLOYD THANK YOU ALL HIGHLY RESPECTED AND APPRECIATED
50 years and STILL the greatest piece of rock music ever recorded. It changed my life and a copy of it will go to my grave with me. It''s sad that on this wonderful anniversary the two men seen as the main forces in this iconic band carry such animosity towards each other. They continue to show their fans and the world that they are so immature they would carry this feud on for so long, likely to their own graves. They are each worth hundreds of millions of dollars, adored by millions and respected by peers as musical geniuses, yet they choose to continue this waste of time, despite knowing themselves how short life is. So enjoy the finest music ever created in rock history, but try to ignore the displays of self-absorbed behavior that embarrasses everyone involved.
Great summary. Hope they bury the hatchet before it's too late. Shine on
Nick Mason is a super mature and intelligent man. he plays with BOTH Roger and Dave and gets along with both. ,maybe Nick should try and intervention with Dave & Roger lol
Well Roger is still making music and on tour, likewise with Nick and his Saucerful Of Secrets, so id hardly say they’re “wasting their time”.
@@kitsune630 True. It is not as if they are sitting on the couch playing video games all day. Touring is a major undertaking from the first day of planning to the last concert.
@Kitsune Who said anything about them "wasting their time"? I said THE FEUD is a waste of time, not what they're doing otherwise.
I just listened to this album 4 days before the anniversary, and I didn’t even know about it! It’s like it was calling to me, and it’s one of my favorite albums now!
Welcome on the DSOTM ship
I remember listening to DSOTM back in 1974 when a teacher at school played the LP for our class and asked us all what we thought of it. Time is a track that rings true. I was young then and life was long. Almost 50 years have past since and it seems like I missed the starting gun coz no one told me when to run 😢. No regrets though! One of the great musical experiences this record.
Fantastic effort and a great looking box set! This album changed our DNAs.
Pink Floyd IS an intemporal band their music will bé eternal.all thé did IS awesome.i discoverd them at 17 years old today i m 64 and still listening
March 7, 1973, Chicago International Amphitheater. I was at the right time and place, a friend’s brother said for my three friends and myself to jump in, he said he knew someone on the side door that let us in. What a night. Little did I know then that 50 years later I would be watching an anniversary video on KZhead reliving the sound that was so new, unique, and mind blowing. I was 19 then and 69 now. I time travel back ever time I hear all of the tracks except for Money. Money is the song that introduced me to Pink Floyd but it was over-played on the airwaves to the point I switched stations. DSOTM needs to be experienced in total, not in bits and pieces.
I've still got the comic book style program from the show in 1975. It was only 25¢
There is a weird thing about this album and how present these guys where when they made it. They talk through out it about all you are is what you touch and what you see. Being present is the hardest thing in life to do. These guys where giving us the blueprint 50 years ago. Thank you guys, I wish I could’ve seen you live.
Without The Floyd in my life I might have not made it 62yrs They're music got me through addiction to sobriety, a 24 year marriage and gave me the Sound track to my life it still applies feel down listen to Sorrow feel lonely listen to Wish You were here. A to Z Pink Floyd has it all. And Changed my World possibly THE WORLD. Dicey,Tx sends love and Prayers to the living and dead members.
4 great musicians at the peak of their creativity and collaboration.
I know I've purchase the album at least 5 times thru the years either due to my children "borrowing" and not returning it or moving and leaving copies behind. I've owned the album on 8 track, cassette CD and vinyl. Tee shirts and hoodies for days!!!!
*Charming band of musicians the genium*
There’s a profound presence of this album in my DNA. Thank you Pink Floyd🔊
My brother played this to me back then and my taste in music changed for ever thanks brother.
Thank you, thank you, thank you Pink Floyd 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
🇵🇹obrigado pynk Floyd absolutamente
I remember Dark Side in the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, 00’s, 10’s and now the 20’s……..6 decades, how time flies 😳 And do you know what? It never, ever gets boring, I can listen to it as much as I like and it’s as if it were the first time, it’s my favourite album of all time. Dave Gilmore was a neighbour in West Sussex until I moved house and I never met him, god I wish I did/could and just say…..’thanks Mr Gilmore’
Albums like this one are really made to be played start to finish. Each song blends into the other perfectly. Listening to just one song is not giving you the same experience.
I've got aweird story about Pink Floyd i was born in 65 so DSOTM was before I was into music. The wall was the 1st Pink Floyd album I was aware of. I've listened to that album and z Roger Walters solo albums never listened to any other Pink Floyd albums till about 3 years ago. Why i don't know 😕 Love music and I now love zDSOTM
Have you listened to their earlier work as well? It's amazing. And Live At Pompeii is an incredible film too.
Legends will always clash but their work will be listened to for decades and decades,wish you were here, dark side of the moon,animals,the wall, division bell ,I've probably missed an album but hey they're all unique works of art,shine on you crazy diamond's I'll see you on the dark side of the moon albeit us and them💎💎💎💎
