@@SG-js2qn DoFP is an amazing work, but for an overall album, I prefer their follow-up, "In Search of the Lost Chord". So many good songs on that one. Other concept albums you might find interesting include Rush's "2112", Blue Oyster Cult's "Imaginos", Hawkwind's "Chronicle of the Black Sword", and Kamelot's "Silverthorn".

My older brother dropped off this album for me to listen to at my parent's house just after it was released in America. He had his own home just about a mile away in a different neighborhood than my parents. Less than 2 hours later I was knocking on his door, getting there on foot. I handed him his album back when he open the door. He protested, "No, no you can keep it for a few weeks to listen to if you want." I told him, "Roscoe, I have already bought one for my own." I had a hi-fi syatem, bean bag, and some mood lights that went perfect with this great album. I must confess, the 1970s was the greatest decade to be a part of.

[@retiringfun]

A little trivia. Dark Side Of The Moon was recorded at Abbey Road Studios (made famous by the Beatles who recorded all their albums there). The recording engineer was Alan Parsons who formed the Alan Parsons Project ( another must listen). The guy speaking in the background was the Door Man at Abbey Road Studios. They asked him to just say a bunch of gibberish. Clare Torry (a session vocalist) did the vocals on The Great Gig In The Sky. She asked what the band wanted and they told her they would do a trial run through the song and for her to just do what came to mind. They kept the trial run. No second take. The Saxophone (not trumpet) is the same guy from The Alan Parsons Project. The Dark Side Of The Moon is still considered one of the best works ever recorded and that was over 50 years ago (says a lot about today's music). If you listen very closely you can hear the heart beat running all the way through the album.

[@guydouglas6094]

I concur that summary. 👍

[@Nick_Sandman]

Great backstory - thank you.

[@caseymoe816]

It should be added that all the sound effects (clocks, chimes, coins, cash registers, etc.) were created off site, recorded separately and added in during the mix. It’s a lot of detail work on a limited amount of analog tape tracks that is easily overlooked today. No ProTool plugins in 1973. Creativity on a completely different level. This album is an absolute masterpiece that will still be played somewhere centuries from now.

[@jeffbrooks8024]

[@mikegallagher2142]

Apologies for the long story I felt compelled to share: This album is my favorite piece of art of any kind. 9 years ago my mother became very ill and we were waiting for the end. My sister and I traded days on duty and off to keep our sanity. On one of my “Days off” I went to a music festival. One band was a Pink Floyd cover band that did the entire album from start to finish. During “Time” my sister called and said our mom had taken a turn for the worse and she’d call me back if I had to come to the hospital. As “Money”started I got another call saying she had passed. That meant she died while I was listening to “The Great Gig in the Sky” being played live. My mom loved to sing and was in several choirs. That song is about dying, fighting against it, and accepting it. It also is just a female vocalist. That song, and album, took on a whole new meaning for me. Anyway, loved the reaction. The Wall would be great next.

​@@Someonelser1Those first two Funkadelic Albums are underrated and Masterful. They should be in the conversation when we talk about Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, Zeppelin, Supertramp etc. And honestly Parliament Funkadelic as a whole for their contributions to music. From 1969 to 72, those guys were as good as any of the bands I mentioned. It is a damn shame they get left out of conversation so much, but we know why... Supertramp, for all their popularity, somehow got lost in the shuffle with bands that aren't even half as good when they should be in more of "The greatest" conversations.
