Editorial Review: Product Description: DARK SIDE OF THE MOON was a benchmark record. It turned the musical world on its ear with a hitherto unseen combination of sounds, and changed things considerably for Pink Floyd. For this project, Pink Floyd resurrected older and unfinished numbers, some of which came from the multitude of soundtracks the band members had previously worked on. The film ZABRISKIE POINT, a study of American materialism from a foreigner's perspective, provided \Us and Them" (originally titled ""The Violence Sequence""). Waters rewrote ""Breathe"" after its appearance on his and avant-garde composer Ron Geesin's score for THE BODY" Amazon.com essential recording: Dark Side of the Moon, originally released in 1973, is one of those albums that is discovered anew by each generation of rock listeners. This complex, often psychedelic music works very well because Pink Floyd doesn't rush anything; the songs are mainly slow to mid-tempo, with attention paid throughout to musical texture and mood. The sound effects on songs like "On the Run," "Time" and especially "Money" (with sampled sounds of clinking coins and cash registers turned into rhythmic accompaniment) are impressive, especially when we remember that 1973 was before the advent of digital recording techniques. This is probably Pink Floyd's best-known work, and it's an excellent place to start if you're new to the band. --Genevieve Williams Average Rating:
 Rating:  - create your own misfortuneThis is a diehard competition of nogood fools and blasphemists. Yah, this stinkpy CD soled millionths but it was a part of a masterplan to infringe the do-gooders and stifle the sermons of the impoverished pallets. Choose your platform NOW and speak and piss in the faces of the floyed lo-vers and so--called maniacs!!!!!!!!!!!! we love you. Frank Sinatra wouldn't have done it other wise! Hannah Gillmore Rating:  - slow diverThis cd most likely is an effigy of the silly kind. Its atrocious musical gaffe is enough to distinguish the rotten from the prowess. Its a slow diver and should've never been relaesed!! Pete Hucky Rating: - slow diverThis cd most likely is an effigy of the silly kind.

Pete Hucky Rating:  - A classic which succeeds on some remarkable frontsI've known Pink Floyd's album DARK SIDE OF THE MOON for many, many years, but although I've been writing Amazon reviews for nearly a decade, I've always been reluctant to post comments about DARK SIDE. What more can I say after thousands of others? How many people are going to decide whether or not to buy this universally acclaimed classic rock album based on my comments? Well, I might as well dedicate this space to two properties of the album that I've always found peculiar indeed. ...

If you only ever listen to one Pink Floyd album, this is the one to get. If you haven't listened to it, then you are missing out on a wonderful experience.
