This album was on the charts for 736 straight weeks, it debuted at number 95 in 1973 and left the charts in 1988. This record, to my knowledge, has never been broken. So yeah, perhaps the best album of all times, at least in sales.

For those who do not know where the name “Pink Floyd” came from…… Syd Barrett - original founder of the band had two favorite Blues Guitar Players in his record collection, two black men both from Atlanta Georgia…. “Pink Anderson and Floyd Council”

I met David Gilmour in 1984 back stage at a concert in Hollywood Calif. He gave me a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know

Pink Floyd were just straight up musical geniuses. Their intros, lyrical word play, the different drops throughout the songs. 40 or 45 years later they are still moving people. Unreal

Putting Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd on another level...this young man gets it. He has it sorted correct.

Listen to the entire "Dark Side of the Moon" album beginning-to-end, and you'll have a whole new appreciation for the band. It truly is an experience. BTW, "Comfortably Numb" is on a different album, "The Wall".

Pink Floyd is the greatest band ever. Period.

Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon finally left Billboard's album chart in July 1988, 736 weeks after it debuted on the weekly Top 200 listing.

Amazing Dark Side of the Moon was released damn near 50 years ago in 1973.

You'll still be listening to this in 40 yrs, trust me. It IS that good

Hey guys I'm 55 years old from San Diego California and I'm a surfer and you're so well-spoken and intellectual I love listening to your reactions and she's right and you're right they are amazing and that song was more of a radio hit because people can't quite handle their super long until actual songs but homeboy you are spot-on and very very intelligent young man and very proud of you

“Pink Floyd don’t have to say nothin” You got that right! Have y’all reacted to “The Great Gig in the Sky”yet? It will blow you away! 100% Guaranteed!

46 million albums sold, that means hundreds of million people have listened to this masterpiece.

The best time of my life was the early 80's when i was about 15 & was turned on to The Dark Side Of The Moon at a party. To this day this is my favorite LP of all time. Enjoy watching you two experience the sounds.

I'm right there with you brother. I like all kinds of music, and have a wide variety of styles in my top twenty, but Pink Floyd is my #1 and has been for over forty years. Hard to put into words, it's just kinda magical what they do and how they do it.

David said he had no solo to the slow beat -wasn’t happy with anything, it was his idea to go upbeat for his part. Genius.

Many albums are ranked by the number of weeks they are on the Billboard charts (5 or 10 weeks would be something to be proud of). Dark Side of the Moon was on Billboard for something like 15 YEARS, maybe more.

You’ve probably heard about how well Dark Side of the Moon synchs up with The Wizard of Oz. ‘Money’ begins the moment the film transitions from black & white to color, as Dorothy steps outside, onto the yellow brick road. The opening sound effects of this track fit the scene so well. Especially after following the chaotic tornado scene as ‘The Great Gig in the Sky’ plays. You can find it here on KZfaq if you’re interested. Just a fun, artistic thing to experience.

Man,. Pink Floyd is off the chain 🎶🎶🎶🎶❤️❤️❤️❤️. My baby son has been a huge fan for 20 years & taught me alot about their music. Great sounds guys 💞💞

These albums really enhance the experience when listened to start to finish

FYI the sound at the begining is an old-fashioned cash register.

Perfect song from a perfect album, extremely underrated solo

I find it hard to have a "favorite" band If I'm listening to Pink Floyd then they're my favorite. If I'm listening to Led Zeppelin then they're my favorite. If I'm listening to Rush then they're my favorite. Different bands for different moods My favorite is whichever one is playing at the time

Growing up Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd were always neck and neck so I feel your pain lol Some cool trivia - in the music video for 'another brick in the wall" the teacher scolds the child for writing poetry in math class; the poem he read out loud in front of the class were lyrics from this song!

Yeah friends trust us, do the whole album . One side per video. 2 vids each are around 20 mins. But don't stop between songs, the motional carryover and the actual music just seemlessly pass from song to song without you noticing. Do it and youll be amazed that even though these songs are great they're even better in their proper spot on the greatest album EVER...Dark Side Of The Moon. Been with you guys from the beginning. I KNOW YOU NEED THIS!

The Floyd uses a couple lines from this tune on there song, Another Brick in the Wall on the album The Wall.

pink floyds first masterpiece is echoes from the album meddle in 1971 the best version of it it live from pompeii its split into 2 parts part 1 is extremely well done

David Gilmour lead vocals and lead guitar. Both iconic in the annals of Rock. They do a pretty good version of this on the live Pulse concert video. "Us and Them" is the next song up on the album.

Pink Floyd Has every possible instrument in their arsenal! That's why they are the best!

Two of my favorite bands are Pink & Floyd.

ANYONE Who Appreciates Pink Floyd,, ABSOLUTELY MUST Do This At Least Once In Your Life,, Get Yourself Comfortable & Completely Relaxed,, Turn Down (Or Better Yet,, Off) All The Lights..Then Put On Your Headphones,, Turn Up The Volume To Max,, Close Your Eyes & Listen To The Whole "Dark Side Of The Moon" Album..TRUST ME!!

With over 45 million copies sold, this is one of the best selling albums of all time! Not to mention over 900 weeks on the charts! All this from an album from 1973!!

This is a true Masterclass band. Them along with Zeppelin. Nothing left the studio until perfection was achieved. Floyd's attention to detail is amazing.

The song called The Gunners Dream from the last album with Roger Waters has a seamless transition from a Saxophone into a Vocal. My favorite track from The Final Cut.

First, the saxaphone wasn't played by David Gilmour, it was played by Dick Parry a well known session musician. Watch the last concert of the original members of Pink Floyd on Live Aid 1985. 4 songs, around 25 minutes long. Superb.

Money is one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs. Also "Time" is even better than comfortably numb

The proof of how good Zep and Floyd are........... They still have an impact 55yrs Later. Rock On!

Two Pink Floyd musts, Great Gig In The Sky, and Comfortably Numb from their live Pulse concert.

Your smile.... that, that says it all. The pure joy of a musical experience! A pleasure to watch your pleasure!

With most bands, the instruments back the lyrics. With the Floyd, the lyrics are almost an afterthought; the instruments are the main thing.

Though David Gilmour can play sax he didn't play it here. The sax is from Dick Parry who also plays on the next album, Wish You Were Here, as well as The Floyd's final performance at Live 8 in July 2005. He also toured with the band's 1994 world tour of the Division Bell album which was recorded for posterity in the P.U.LS.E. CD/DVD.

Dark Side of the Moon is one of the top selling albums of all time…, period. it’s a masterpiece.

To get the full pink Floyd appreciation you have to listen to the albums all at once song after song. Every song ties into the next and other songs as well. Almost a movie when you listen to pink Floyd. Which they actually made a movie with the theme track being. Another brick in the wall album. They are untouched

Having so much fun watching you guys light up to the music my dad introduced me to as a kid, great channel, satisfied subscriber! Pink Floyd and DSotM are my #1 as well.

amazing band !! oh and her smile when the guitar solo start 🙌🏻 priceless

Listen from start to finish. The whole Album as it’s meant to be. I bought it the day it was released, in 1973 and will never stop listening to it, with the same excitement every time. Enjoy. 🎶❤️🎶

This is David Gilmour singing. Roger Waters wrote the song, and his bass riff drives the song. Gilmour and the sax player took this song so high.

I've said it myself many times that Pink Floyd is the Mozart/ Beethoven of the twentieth century! Since it's apparent that so many people are still Blown Away by Pink Floyd in 2022 people are obviously going to continue listening to them! After checking several sites Dark Side of the Moon still sells from eight to ten thousand copies a week worldwide!! And like Mozart and Beethoven people will still be listening to them 200 500 even a thousand years from now if we don't get blown up by an asteroid or something! Please try to remember this, when you listen to the last songs on this album please play brain damage and Eclipse as one song because of the incredible transition from one to the next which you won't even feel!!

You can never go wrong listening to Pink Floyd.

It was really nice seeing you both smile as you enjoyed it with it's many layers and flow.

This track seems to have a bit of the early funk that was just starting to become a major musical force

the word you're looking for that describes their transitions is, seamless.

Pink Floyd is one of the very few bands that appeals to almost everyone no matter what genre of music that they prefer.

Hey man I salute you. For your generation you showing that y'all can understand real music. And appreciate it. Once again brother good job y'all two.

Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin are neck and neck for sure. They are both GOAT in their own right and heavily influenced by blues music. They were fans of each other I believe.I hope you can react to Echoes live in Pompeii by Pink Floyd and In My Time of Dying by Led Zeppelin.

US AND THEM was the song it was bleeding into....BRO gotta do it

Your right about pink floyd. Man their music is like nothing else it's more of an experience. They cracked the code

Comfortably Numb from The Wall album is another cool vibe. It's about his childhood and going on stage as Pink Floyd. Very cool song

Awesome. Make sure to do "Time" after this track. You two are great.

Had a lot of good trips listening to pink floyd back in the day.

My Fav Pink Floyd album is "Animals" but this song always made me smiled

My generation had the best music period! Oh the memories!!

Yo, Dark side of the moon is one of the best albums ever made. I remember the day it was released. My 11 years old sister and I (7) left school for a dental appointment. On passing through town there was a HUGE queue leading towards the record shop, this was in a town of 50k inhabitants in Scotland, UK. I remember the big prism filling the shop window, but as a 7 year old didn't know what was up. I realised a while later. So good to see you listening to Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin etc. My life wouldn't have been the same without their music. Best wishes from Scotland.

But wait...there's more. The rest of the album is absolute 🔥. Great reaction. The smile on her face during the sax/guitar solos says it all! Have never seen Pink Floyd live. Though I did get to see Roger Waters in concert sometime in the 90's. It was the first time playing songs from Pink Floyd since leaving the band. Second favorite concert after Page/Plant.

Here's a band that will blow your mind as far as transitions and musicianship. YES: "Roundabout" "Starship Trooper" "Long Distance Runaround" "Heart Of The Sunrise" "And You And I" " Wondrous Stories" and when you think you're ready for a masterpiece..... "Close To The Edge"

One of the greatest rock albums ever!

If you watch "The Dark Side of Oz" which is the Wizard of Oz movie with Pink Floyd's "Dark Side Of The Moon" album replacing the sound of the movie, the cash register sounds at the beginning of "Money" happen right when the movie changes from black and white to color. The timing is perfect.

You're absolutely right they don't have to say a word their music tells the story

Its worth noting that the lyrics "new car caviaer and four star day dream gonna buy me a football team" appear in the video of pinks floyd film "the wall"

You should listen to Pink Floyd's song Sheep. There is a part where his voice transitions into a synthesizer seamlessly.

Great way to start off a weekend ! Thanks and enjoy yours.

If you like instruments you need to check out Chicago and Blood Sweat And Tears both use them and both are 🔥

Hi from Canada! My personal favourite song is Shine On You Crazy Diamond. Listen to the studio version first. Absolutely amazing! You won’t regret it! Cheers! ✌🏻🇨🇦

The first 2 verses and the sax solo was in a 7/8 beat. When it came to the guitar solo, Dave Gilmour said he could not solo unless it was changed up to an 8/8. It switched back to a 7/8 for the last verse.

Check out the live Version from Pulse Concert

YES, I missed the pink floyd reactions

Please please do the entire album in one sitting and break up into two show shows . This was meant to be heard in one listen . It’s. Story the wings all run together . Please do this it’s mandatory to be a PF fan 😉

Without realizing it, at the end of the song you just listened to, that organ or synth, was actually the beginning of the next track on the album. Pink Floyd's most popular albums are concept albums, meant to be listened from first to last track in order uninterrupted. Only by doing this will you appreciate just WHAT the song means to the album as a whole, kind of like a chapter in a book. After the first time, of course, you will know. The concept albums are Dark Side of the Moon 1973, Wish You Were Here 1975, Animals 1977 and The Wall 1979. Oh, and read the lyrics while listening, makes more sense that way. I was born in 1960, and my older brother had me into music good and young, and I grew up listening to ALL those great bands. And in my opinion, Pink Floyd has always been just a notch ahead of the next best bands, in their production, live shows, lyrics, etc. Still feel the same way today. And David GIlmour has ALWAYS been my favourite guitarist. And Comfortably Numb is on The Wall, not Dark Side of the Moon. And if you watch the live version at Pulse, please, please watch the UNCUT version, since the one everybody is watching has over 1 minute of guitar finale CUT OUT. Reason? Gilmour heard a 'dodgy note or two' so edited it out. But in order to get out 1 second of maybe not perfect music, they had to cut 1 minute and 6 seconds of perfectly GOOD and not dodgy notes out as well. I like the UNCUT version, because that is how the people at the concert heard it, and I even think I know which note or two is supposedly 'dodgy', but, for an extra minute of great guitar, who the eff cares?

I appreciate what you both do. I strongly encourage you to listen to this album start to finish in one sitting. The guitarist/singer Dave Gilmour once said that his biggest regret in have to be in it and record it is that he'll never be able to sit and listen to that album from start to finish for the first time.

Pink Floyd is a gift from the gods.

I love the dark side of the moon but shine on you crazy diamond studio version and echoes live at pompeii are my favorite songs.

Boy oh boy. The rock and jazz and blues are blended so so soooo smoothly on this jam. I get a sax solo and a guitar solo?! Hit me!🔥😎

thanks for doin studio version, i cannot thank you enough

Most peeps don't realize the timing changes in this song from 7/8 to 4/4 for the lead guitar, then back to 7/8 again. Definitely smoooooth :)

Brilliant Song And The Lyrics Sum It All Up

For the love of all things Pink Floyd, I urge anyone interested to get a copy of the "Classic Albums" series documentary episode featuring "The Making of the Dark Side of the Moon". There are fragments of it on YT but I urge you to seek it out in it's entirety.DVD or whatever, you will learn so much about the makings of one of the most essential/crucial albums in musical history. I guarantee it! It's phenomenal.

Dark Side of the Moon, should be played from the first song on side 1, thru the last song on side 2, to really get the whole album. The band even said that's the way they made the album to be played, pretty cool.

I don’t know if you noticed but the beginning of this song is the “poem” the teacher made fun of in Another Brick In The Wall.

the best concept album ever produced......period

great reaction and appreciation for Floyd :D i think you'd love Echoes, Careful With That Axe Eugene, One Of These Days, to name 3 :)

It's funny how this song sings about caviar and nice cars as weird sorts of compromises, whereas many songs today paint achieving those things as being a positive symbol of success. Waters wrote it thinking of money being, in many ways, too complicated to call 'success.' Essentially it's about the cost of having money.

Classic Pink Floyd 🇬🇧 🖤

Pink Floyd should be the official music of all mankind.

my fave band. this song isnt even in my top 50 floyd songs. cant go wrong with them. pick any floyd song, or try any from their pulse concert such as "sorrow" its epic. . could try the band Muse, new song "wont stand down" . one of the few bands out now who are any good 🙂great reaction guys.

Brother- I agree 100%, Led Zepp and Pink Floyd are the absolute top of the heap in my book too. I remember when of all their albums came out, and we waited at the record stores for the shipments, to run home and put it on the turntable with speakers full blast. Every song’s a masterpiece. I’d say the only other band to rival them is the Allman Brother’s Band. I listened to this album when I was 18, after dropping pure LSD-25- whew!! a crazy, harrowing experience!

If y’all like Pink Floyd this much, check out something from their album Animals. I recommend the song “Pigs” or “Dogs” to start with… though it’s a concept album so you really oughta do the whole thing in order for full effect. Stay real, y’all. Love.

Good reaction, when you get a chance listen to "Shine your crazy diamond" and "Echoes" Live at Pompeii. Pink Floyd will definitely be your favorite band after listening to those two.

No one ever reacts to Roger Waters solo stuff, he was the main man in Pink Floyd and has some amazing tracks. Perfect Sense and Every Strangers Eyes are fantastic tunes.

This is the best Pink Floyd for anyone who doesn't know Pink Floyd Not the "best" Pink Floyd track but the best intro.... If you don't like this..... 🤔 And yes the change in time from 7/8 to 4/4 when David's solo starts just works brilliantly 😉

My all-time favorite album...nice video!
