Additional InformationBy condensing the sonic explorations of Meddle to actual songs and adding a lush, immaculate production to their trippiest instrumental sections, Pink Floyd inadvertently designed their commercial breakthrough with Dark Side of the Moon. The primary revelation of Dark Side of the Moon is what a little focus does for the band. Roger Waters wrote a series of songs about mundane, everyday details which aren't that impressive by themselves, but when given the sonic backdrop of Floyd's slow, atmospheric soundscapes and carefully placed sound effects, they achieve an emotional resonance. But what gives the album true power is the subtly textured music, which evolves from ponderous, neo-psychedelic art rock to jazz fusion and blues-rock before turning back to psychedelia. It's dense with detail, but leisurely paced, creating its own dark, haunting world. Pink Floyd may have better albums than Dark Side of the Moon, but no other record defines them quite as well as this one. [Dark Side of the Moon was re-released on CD in 2016.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
ReviewsRolling Stone (12/11/03, p.110) - Ranked #43 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "...One of the best-produced rock albums ever..." Rolling Stone (5/24/73, p.57) - "...The sound is lush and multi-layered while remaining clear and well-structured....a fine album with a textural and conceptual richness that not only invites, but demands involvement....the excellence of a superb performance..." Q (10/94, p.137) - 4 Stars - Excellent Uncut (5/03, p.112) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...The subdued, darkly muttering, sombrely somnolent music of DARK SIDE OF THE MOON startles....An achievement of considerable merit..." NME (Magazine) (3/20/93, p.33) - 8 - Excellent - "...although everything your punk rock elder brother said was undeniably true, it doesn't take a great mental leap to achieve the mind-set of the pot-smoking philosophy student and pronounce this album a super-sensory classic..."

Simply the best
Many thanks for making shopping a delight and easy for an oldie who is not good at online shopping - and a Happy Christmas because you sure did make mine memorable! I had my Pink Floyd collection on vinyl but gave my record collection away - am just now replacing it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

The Silver Lining of the Dark Moon
Before the mostly boring 'The Wall,' which every irritating git loved in the eighties because it was fashionable, came the superior 'Dark Side of the Moon.' My favorite track is 'Arnold Layne,' which has an almost Beatles flavor. Love it all.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great collectable addition to your library
Beautiful remastering of a classic album, would be better if it was in a jewel case given its anniversaries but no problems whatsoever with the quality of the music, one for all aficionados, particularly in its 50th year.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
