Pink Floyd : The Dark Side of the Moon


 

THE LUNATIC IS ON THE GRASS,

THE LUNATIC IS ON THE GRASS,

REMEMBERING GAMES

AND DAISY CHAINS AND LAUGHS

GOT TO KEEP THE LOONIES

ON THE PATH....


The Dark Side of the Moon

 is the eighth

 studio album

 by the

 English 

rock band 

Pink Floyd, 

released on

  March,1st 1973 

by Harvest Records 

in the UK 

and

 Capitol Records

 in the US. 

Developed during

 live performances 

before recording began, 

it was conceived

 as a concept album

 that would focus on

 the pressures faced

 by the band

 during their

 arduous lifestyle, 

and also deal with

 the mental health problems

 of the former band member 

Syd Barrett,

 who had departed

 the group in 1968. 

New material was recorded

 in two sessions in

 1972 and 1973

 at EMI Studios

 (now Abbey Road Studios)

 in London.

The record builds on

 ideas explored in

 Pink Floyd's

 earlier recordings 

and performances,

 while omitting the

 extended instrumentals

 that characterized

 the band's earlier work. 

The group employed 

multitrack recording, 

tape loops, 

and 

analogue synthesizers,

 including experimentation

 with the

 EMS VCS 3 

and a 

Synthi A. 

The engineer 

Alan Parsons was

 responsible for many

 aspects of the recording,

 and for the recruitment

 of the session singer 

Clare Torry, 

who appears on 

"The Great Gig in the Sky".

The Dark Side of the Moon

 explores themes such as 

conflict, greed,

 time, death, 

and mental illness. 

Snippets from interviews

 with the band's 

road crew

 and others 

are featured alongside 

philosophical quotations.

 The sleeve, 

which depicts a

 prismatic spectrum, 

was designed by

 Storm Thorgerson

 in response to the

 keyboardist 

Richard Wright's 

request for a

 "simple and bold" 

design which would 

represent the band's

 lighting and the 

album's themes. 

The album was promoted

 with two singles:

 "Money"

 and

 "Us and Them"
