Prog... not prog.... who gives a sh*t? Its the qualite of the music that matters. I know tons of non-prog music that will kick the sh*t out of alot of the most famous "prog-music". Just because alot of the floyd stuff dont qualifie as prog doesnt mean that it isnt good music. Jeeez

Hmmm...

Can't quite say I agree with you.  Floyd had more than their fair share of prog brilliance throughout their career, and almost all of their albums are at least kind of proggy. For me, their proggiest (and best) are Saucerful, Umma, AHM, Meddle, DSOM, WYWH and Animals.  I agree with many of the above posters that DSOM is prog, but I also agree with you that it is their most overrated album, and that the similar sounding WYWH is FAR SUPERIOR.  Piper, More, OBC, Final Cut and DivBell are all somewhat prog, and I actually like many of these better than DSOM.  Thier poppiest albums are The Wall (one of my favorites nonetheless, and it does have some prog aspects) and AMLoR (my least favorite Floyd album).

Just my view.

There was a time when some newbie would open up a thread about "DSotM is prog" and then quickly being taken down by anyone carrying a brain. Those times are apparently over.

Are Pink Floyd good? Many people think so.

Is the Dark Side of the Moon a progressive rock record? No, it is not.

Is it an all round great record, technically, thematically, and production wise? Yes.
