When I was a teenager, and the album was new, I just didn't get The Great Gig In The Sky. It went over my head, so I would always skip it. Not anymore! A masterpiece, it is. A magnificent display of emotion, passion, and pure joy ..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueschica Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Happy Birthday, Dark Side! And I'll forgive you for inspiring an ugly copy of the album cover that took up the whole wall in my friend Doug's house! I got a headache every time I saw it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) What happened then? The first few posts are a little vague but I believe Dark Side Of The Moon was released on this date. What a mind blowing experience it must have been to hear that album fresh and new upon release. I wasn't born until five years after this came out, so I already knew most of it from the radio when I first heard it. That doesn't make the album any less fantastic to me but it had to be otherworldly to hear it back then. Edited March 1, 2018 by J2112YYZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fordgalaxy Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I have to skip "Money". It's been played to death on classic rock radio. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I have to skip "Money". It's been played to death on classic rock radio. I found that once I stopped regularly listening to classic rock radio I had a new appreciation for all the overplayed songs I like after a few years. Of course I know that this may not work for everyone but it helped me out a lot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
custom55 Posted March 1, 2018 Author Share Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) DSOTM tour at Roosevelt stadium, NJ June 1973. I remember it well. Quad sound with On The Run. It felt like the stadium was spinning and going to lift off its foundation. Floyd really knew how to toy with your head. http://youtu.be/4WglzMzS-3g Edited March 1, 2018 by custom55 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I know that this may not work for everyone but it helped me out a lot. I still have several songs on my Retired List. As the years pass, I slowly become able to listen to them again. Still can't listen to Stairway To Heaven and Freebird, though.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Principled Man Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I remember when Gilmore re-recorded Money in 1981, for their "Best Of" album, A Collection Of Great Dance Songs. We thought it was pure blasphemy! You don't redo such a perfect song! :laughing guy: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
