THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON

Dark side of the moon is PF's most popular album. It touched the public and progressive fans, just enough to make it be the best seller album of all time. Almost everyone say that that album is PF better, but if you have a bit of judgement, you'll cleary see that WYWH is even more composed and real than DSOTM. Even dough, this is a real masterpiece. Nick Masons's sounds are fabulous from the beginning to the end. In 1973, there wasn't so much electronic sound, except ELP, Yes, and all the progressive world, but no one had that psychedelic sound. The same one that Alan Parsons used also a couple of years later in his project.

The arrangements on the firts two songs advise us that we're going somewhere else. Then, the serie of four fabulous song. First, Time, with a wondeful guitar solo, not very long like previous Gilomour's guitars. Then, Gig, with the no text context, is greatly interpreted by a feminine voice. It surprises us from PF. After, the very popular Money, with its Jazz side and a very timed saxophone solo. Finally, Us And Them, a light song with a cool chorus that touches a little intensity. To finish, you leave the album with those three songs that reput you on Earth.

The new sounds, the saxophones, the good vocals and, very important, Gilmour's guitars make of this album a masterpiece that brought news in the prog world. To buy, absolutely.
