Pink Floyd: Dark Side of the Moon 50th Anniversary

The Dark Side of the Moon was English psychedelic band Pink Floyd’d eighth studio album.

Dark Side of the Moon was conceived as a concept album that focused on the band’s arduous lifestyle, and the mental health problems of the former band member Syd Barrett.

Dark Side of the Moon is among the most critically acclaimed albums of all time, as well as being the 4th biggest selling record of all time.

In 2012, the album was selected for preservation in the United States National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". It was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999.

Along with the lyrical content, the original release was recognized for its musicality, its psychedelic features through the use of alternative sounds, and exceptional mastering.

In 2023 a 50th anniversary reissue was released, as well as a 50th anniversary book.

The 50th anniversary release holds true to the mastering of the original release. Its sound stage is wide and extremely dynamic. It is quiet, clean, and highly detailed.

For those looking for a great copy of a rock masterpiece, the 50th anniversary edition is as good as you will get from a mass produced release. 💰
