The Sound of Silence, the Absence of Light, the Feel of Song,

This review is from: Dark Side Of The Moon (Audio CD)
Perspective buyers, you are viewing the greatest album of all time and one of the world's greatest works of art; Roger Water's and Pink Floyd's magnum opus, Dark Side of the Moon. Just over two years ago, I was almost entirely unaware of Pink Floyd and knew nothing of their incredible legacy. I had heard of "the Dark Side," but I had never listened to it. And then, I finally bought it. Dark Side of the Moon was the most important purchase of my life. There is no album in the world that is so touchingly beautiful, or so mind-bendingly powerful as Dark Side of the Moon and it will never fail to amaze you.The sound of a heartbeat resonates through the speakers, confused noise and, finally, cries erupt in a startling crescendo that leads into the ethereal beauty of Breathe and then to the frantic, constant motion of On the Run. As time runs by, with its powerful solo and poignant lyrics, you will find yourself in a reprise and then fall gently into the soundscapes and primal screams of the Great Gig in the Sky. Even if you are not familiar with the album, it is more than likely that you know the next track, Money, which has occupied a position of high standing on FM radio for decades. Us and Them is simply beautiful, no matter how you cut it, and is so wonderfully humanitarian. Any Colour You Like is a delight and the album is then closed with the touching power of the ever-so-sympathetic Brain Damage, wonderful homage to former frontman, Syd Barrett, and seamlessly flows into the great final cry of Eclipse. My life has been made better and more beautiful by this album. After every listening of Dark Side of the Moon, I am left feeling fulfilled and enriched. So many important facets of human life are addressed in such a compassionate and thoughtful manner that it will leave you feeling that, for that point in time, everything in the world has come together, to resonate as one, just like that mysterious and strangely beautiful heartbeat.

shameful pressing,

This review is from: Dark Side of the Moon 1 LP Gatefold (2011 remastered version) (LP Record)
I was sure looking forward to this release. The first copy I received was quite warped and made a noisy whoosh at every revolution. The second copy was better but still warped. There was quite a bit of surface noise, too, and the sound struck me as harsh and thin. Well-pressed vinyl always sounds warm and deep to me. What a shame that Harvest and EMI didn't exercise more quality control on such a special release. I would avoid this version if I were you. The SACD version from a few years back is infinitely superior despite this latest remastering.

Looks like was handled by vice grips,
This review is from: Dark Side of the Moon 1 LP Gatefold (2011 remastered version) (LP Record)
The packaging is beautiful and the music is too. However the surface of the record looked like it had been handled with vice-grips before it was inserted in the record sleeve. The sound quality was very good where the rub marks, scratches and gouges were not present. I returned the record for a replacement.The replacement arrived quickly. I opened the box to find the replacement had a hole punched right through the record jacket into the record. I didn't even open it. I returned this one as well. Amazon sent me an email stating "It seems that there is a widespread problem with "Dark Side of the Moon 1 LP Gatefold (2011 remastered version)" They will not be sending me a second replacement because it might be no better than the original (or the first replacement). Checking on Amazon.com it looks like the reviews are 5 star or 1 star (more 1 star reviews than 5 star) depending on which product you recieve. I sure hope that the record company gets its act together soon, because I would really like a copy. I don't know how Amazon is going to let me know when "good" copies will be in stock.
