dark side of the moon appreciation thread!

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

at the moment i cant get enough of listening to this legendary album. once i hear the first track i HAVE to hear it all.

obviously its highly redognised as one of the best albums of all time by many but how much do you like it!?

 

[Tricky Dicky]

First album I ever bought at age 12 when it was released.

A timeless classic !

 

[Silent Bob]

I like it a lot. A classic album.

Although my favourite Floyd song is Wish You Were Here (album version, not live version), Dark Side of the Moon is my favourite album of all time!

The Live8 version of Breathe with the tacked on Breathe Reprise just made me wish Floyd would tour again.

Incredible thing Dark Side...

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

Try listening to "Dub side of the moon" by the Easy Star All Stars. It's a reggae version, true to the original.

Hear it here

Interstellar overdrive anyone

I only listen to Floyd really and D.S.O.T.M is just brilliant.Time,us and them and brain damge really do rock.The final cut is also a very good album but quite depressing.

 

[Eggmundo]

Obscured by clouds sound track is an outstanding floyd album, well worth a listen if you get the chance.
Even better are Pros and Cons and Radio Kaos...Waters solos...Pure genius.

 

[jevs]

fantastic stuff......Time, brain damage and eclipse are just awesome....especially when done live (pulse)

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

the main thing i love is how they made the effort to link the songs all onto each other so well throughtout the album, like one large song. supoib!

 

[miguelpea]

couldn't help myself. must acknowledge.

 

[Icy Gull]

Interstellar overdrive anyone

Carefull with that axe Eugene

went to see them on the Division Bell tour at Wembley Arena, but the first half they played DSOTM from start to finish. we even had the aeroplane right across the arena. And Sam Browne doing the woah woah wooooh woah wo wooooo voocals. Su-f***ing-perb

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Best album of all time IMHO

 

[dougdeep]

It sounds a little dated to me now. Sorry.

 

[e77]

If that band tour again i am first in the queue.

 

[larus]

It sounds a little dated to me now. Sorry.

Have to disagree there Dougdeep.

I wasthinking to myself when I played it at the weekend how it just doesn't seem to date. Other stuff I've got has (Sabbath, etc), but not this album.

Also, agree with rogue, The Final Cut is a great album, as is Pros & Cons by Waters.

Would love to see them tour - be a wicked night out.

Saw them during the Division Bell tour in 94 at Earl's Court (the night the stand collapsed) and it was one of the best shows I have ever seen.

Seeing Roger Waters do Glasto in 2002 was one of the great hippy experiences of my days. Not sure about the bloke dancing nude though !

Great Album, its up there in my top 10. Anyone tried synchronising the Wizard of Oz and Dark side of the moon?
