I don't recommend listening the last two songs individually - you risk to ruin the experience. These last two are life changing and they should be listened along side the whole album
This! Brain Damage and Eclipse together are a must!
Completely Agree!!! BRAIN DAMAGE and ECLIPSE M U S T be listened together to fully get the expected effect Pink Floyd was aiming for! As always, You Won't Be Disappointed! Cheers!!!
No from the end of Money to the end of Eclipse the most beautiful almost 16 minutes in music history
This. Like, Stacey, I know you know we want you to listen to the whole thing, and I know you plan to do so. What's unclear is whether you realize how much some of the individual songs lose out on if they're not listened to in context. Time and Money are really the only two tracks that I'd say are fine to listen to on their own, and you've done both of those, and then some. You can, of course, do what you wish, but I'd highly recommend you skip straight to the whole-album (or album sides, at least) listen(s).
P.S. And if you're doing the individual tracks first for CZcams purposes or whatever, then just... record the full-album one before you record the individual track ones, or something? I guess either way you spoil a first listen. Never mind... but yeah... something.
Richard Wright at his finest. RIP you legend and genius
When you get around to listening to the entire album you will understand why this album holds the record for longest period of time being in the top 100 albums all time!!!!
This is a perfect example for DSOTM being a concept album. The songs merge, not all of them can be picked out.
Playing this song alone is like watching one random scene from a movie that doesn't make much sense on it's own, but is brilliant in the context of the movie as a whole.
Dark Side of the Moon must be listened to from start to finish, uninterrupted in a dark room.
The best thing I heard about this song is that it sounds like the album cover looks. Like they plugged their Instrument into a rainbow. Just pure...colour
There is a reason that the songs play one into the other. That was the intention of Alan Parsons( producer )and Pink Floyd. Wait until you hear the whole album without interruption. You’ll understand.
Yeah, Alan Parsons deserves a lotta shout-outs for his contributions to this masterpiece
If you listen very closely you can hear David singing his exact notes and phrasing that he’s playing on the guitar. He does this in a lot of songs. It’s very subtle in this song but so cool.
When you get around to doing Brain Damage you have to do Brain Damage/Eclipse. They are 2 part of a complete piece.
One of the lovelier bits Rick Wright ever composed. the Echoplexed synthesizer is gorgeous.
To me who makes this song great is Richard Wright, as he has in so many songs. Underrated
You are more more more more than ready for The Dark Side of the Moon, even with the songs you haven’t heard yet =]. You will get a kick out of it as a continuous and uninterrupted experience. And listening to it on record is the way to go, not only for the flow and that gap when you have to flip to the other side.
A lot of what makes the album work was that it was actually refined over the course of a year or so. The band played the whole piece starting in the spring of 1972 when they were touring. Each performance was an opportunity to refine and give it a more final shape. When it came time to the actual recordings later that fall, they knew pretty much how it was going to sound and it was matter of getting down on tape in the best way.
To get personal, I got into Pink Floyd when I was about five or so. I listened to the records my parents had (and I’m sure it was my dad who got it 😁) and I loved how they seem to take you on a journey, even when you don’t exactly know what it is or where you are going. I got my own copy of The Dark Side of the Moon as a Christmas present when I was six.
As a musical sensei here: the word that applies here is “instrumental”
The beauty of music in general is it can “say something” without necessarily “saying it”. There’s an inherent ambiguity to it when you hear instrumental music and thus it becomes an incredibly personal moment as you have experienced a number of times already. Definitely keep exploring and there’s a lot more out there =]
As for this specific piece, the title is a play on a phrase often attributed to Henry Ford regarding the Model T: “it can be any colour you like as long as it’s black”. So with that plus the whole album being an examination of modern life, it can be about the “illusion of choice”. While I can understand why one could conclude that, I do think that you can make choices and in making choices can add to the richness of life, both in yourself and in others. Just because you can’t experience all possibilities never means you can never experience any possibility.
At any rate, hopefully your journey to the dark side of the moon will come sooner rather than later 😉. Take care =]
Do yourself a favour and listen to that album in one session from start to finish.
To really listen to Dark side of the Moon, have some wine, burn some inscent, in the dark, laying on the couch and a lava lamp would be Great also
nah... not necessary. Just darkness to limit distractions.
thanks Molly
Or at least, one side at a time.
@@csphoenix9 All you really need is a comfortable chair and good headphones. Your eyes should be closed most of the time anyway.
I'm looking forward to the day when you react to Pink Floyd's 'Keep Talking' live from the Pulse concert... The sounds they are able to generate will take you to a different dimension 👌
I believe that Keep Talking is the only time I've seen Gilmour use a talk box! One of my favorites.
@@mikemartin8088 Shhh.
Seconded on the "sshhhh"! lol I want to see Stacey's reaction WITHOUT any spoilers as to what is coming.
@mikemartin8088 A friendly reminder to not give any spoilers before she watches. lol You are right, though. It's not often. Pigs (TDO) is the other one that jumps out at me. I can't recall off the top of my head if there are any others.
I've been asking for months😢
DSOTM was keyboardist Richard Wright's greatest moment. He wrote the music for much of this song, "Us and Them," "Great Gig in the Sky" and more.
This instrumental interlude is a bridge between Us and Them and the madness and genius that comes after. This tune is Rick Wright and David Gilmour jamming out, colorfully to say the least! Yes, when you do the Dark Side album, all the individual songs will make more sense as part of a cohesive whole. Back then, other than hearing songs on the FM radio, we mainly played albums like this as a whole, we had way more time to listen for 45 minutes at a time to a great album, no cell phones, social media or other modern tech, having 13 channels on the TV and no way to record video. Just you and a few others in a room, grooving to the best music ever, often stoned out, and living life without everything going on that distracts you or takes up much time in modern media. The art of direct conversation with others and not on a cell phone, those were the days, I was lucky to live back then.
Anyhow, you are awesome and I always look for you when I go to You Tube. Such a gorgeous and very nice young lady, grooving on the music I grew up with, being affected by these all time master MUSCIANS in a way that affects me! 2 more bands to eventually get really into are The WHO and Black Sabbath, those 2 exist in a similar place just below Zeppelin and Floyd and both have some of the greatest music of all time waiting for your discriminating ears. 🎧 For the WHO, try Behind Blue Eyes, for Black Sabbath, do Symptom of the Universe. Both all time classic songs you would love. Thanks for being you and Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
Hi, listener from the UK here, been a lifelong fan of Pink Floyd. They were somewhat inspirational in my musical development which is quite diverse actually. I’ve always loved this song, the drum pattern is as you say completely solid and the base gives a really mellow group. The keys on the sink are also really amazing and build the song. I love that you’re on an amazing journey and learning so much about music, it’s great to see someone really understanding the music and getting strong feels from it. Found a new subscriber! Much love x
The shirt, the album, next thing is a Fender Statocaster! :)
Hey Stacy.
Never post comments on social media but feel that I need to having just watched another of your reactions to Pink Floyd, this time Any Colour You Like, one of my absolute favourites that rarely receives any attention. Really enjoying hearing your thoughts and views following the songs, especially that you speak at length, with emotional intelligence and personal insight after each play. Other reactors I have seen spend 30 seconds with copy and paste statements. Thank you so much for this attention and commitment.
Question if you have time. Having reacted to a lot of Pink Floyd now, what would you say are your top 3 songs either live or studio that you've heard so far?
Thanks again for your wonderful content. Wishing you all the best as a content creator - reckon you're going to smash it!
Pinkfloyd magnificent as always !!!! Thank you Stacey !!! 😘With the most beautiful T-shirt in the universe 😉😚
The concept of music about the concept of colors. Instruments are like the colors in the rainbow, just pick one and mix it at will with whatever you like. Like in the later years of life, when we are full of experience and no longer worry about small things, but enjoy the moment supported by the behavior accumulated over these many years. Beautiful colors. Whatever happens, I'm fine. It is located towards the end of the album, only a summary with a concluding thought follows. In this concept album that follows a man through his life from birth, first breath, youthful running, gaining experience, growing up with the concept of time, the transience of life with death, the absurdity of money, wars, to the accumulation experienced in old age and reconciliation and enjoying everything together when then life may expire.
My older sister introduced me to DSOTM right after the album came out. It was my introduction to PF and they quickly became my favorite group of all time. If you haven't already, you should check out their next album after this Wish You Were Here and the back story behind it.❤
You've just put a smile on my face again... thank you! I looked at the Billboard Top 200 Chart and they are now at 990 weeks... inching closer to the 1000 mark! Would be awesome for you to time your Full-Album reaction with this milestone!
Hi Stacey! Awesome reactions to Pink Floyd!! That's how I found you since David Gilmour is my favorite artist of all time. It goes beyond PF as he did a few solo records and is touring in select cities this year! How amazing is that !! He has many nights in NY and UK. I was at Pulse in '94 as a teen! Best show to this day and I've seen many bands. Can you react to his solo live at Pompeii show from 2016? It's as good as Pulse if not better. Check it out, it's sooo worth it!! He's even better, and so is the sound quality as it's a recent recording. Cheers to you :))
We love that you love PF. It’s awesome watching you hear masterpiece after masterpiece for the very first time. And there’s a kitty cat in the background sometimes!
The main keyboard sound you hear is Rick Wright playing an EMS Synthi AKS which had a 'flat' touchplate keyboard, allowing the note slides and gliassandos, and this is going through Rick's favourite Binson Echorec echo box.
😂 Jumped to this after 'Us & Them' cause that's the way most Floyd fans brains work! 😁🥰🐰
It is a little hidden in the mix, but you can hear David Gilmour scat singing in unison what the guitar is doing in some parts. It is something he has done on other songs as well, notably on Wish You Were Here. The record player is a great idea. There is nothing better than to listen to this record on vinyl through speakers one song melting into the next. Our big treat used to be going to a friend that had an audiophile vinyl of DSOTM for a listening party. He would bust that copy out only once in a while.
I love PF instrumentals; and this is at the top, though "Terminal Frost" off "A Momentary Lapse of Reason" is great.
Happy birthday Stacey. The best birthday present DSOTM album. Love the shirt as well. Looking forward to the whole album ❤️🏴🇬🇧
Look inside your new album. The inner sleeve has all the lyrics, and this will show that 4 of the tracks are instrumentals. (That's including Clare Torry's amazing "Great Gig" contribution as an vocal instrumental.) My older sister got DSOTM when it came out in '73 and played it repeatedly. Hearing it only through her closed bedroom door I was still much intrigued. I finally had to sneak into her room one day to hear it properly. I listened while reading along with those lyrics. Unlike most other rock songs of that era, the words made sense to the impressionable pre-teen who I was at the time. Even better was experiencing the clarity of this vinyl recording - meticulously engineered by Alan Parsons - on her high fidelity sound system. I've been a Floyd fan ever since. So, Stacey, you must do yourself a favor: get a quality turntable and play the full album straight through!
Pink Floyd has produced a bunch of so-called "concept albums," which are intended to be listened to from start to finish. This is because the individual songs together form the whole - the actual concept. They are simply not meant to be listened to out of context. This is perhaps especially true for Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall and The Final Cut. So - have a good journey listening to them all, from start to end - it truly is an experience!
Lay down in a dark room, with your headphones as loud as you can stand, and listen to this album. You’ll experience music on a whole different level. You’ll feel like you’re “trippin’” w/out the drugs. Truly feel the music, see the colors of the notes…an existential ride
Nice shirt! It's been fun watching you evolve into the Floyd❤ you can tell your sincere
Stacey, You really need to listen to the album in its entirety. That way, you can hear how all these songs flow into each other.
If it is David Gilmour Pink Floyd then yeah you can do what she does but when it comes to albums by Roger Waters she ruins it for herself by not doing the album reaction first. She should just break it up into a video per song but still react to the album.
@@cFull_Rtrd ?
@@neillenet291 ?? use your words
@cFull_Rtrd Use your explanation to clarify your convoluted response about roger waters. A question mark Was completely appropriate for something that didn't make sense
@@neillenet291 i have no idea what you were trying to say and your response was lazy and insulting. Why did you feel the need to treat me that way? I'm not answering anything from you, you don't know how to talk to people and are rude. Read it again if you don't get it.
Music sends you on a journey, good music doesn't require words.
This one hits even more right after Us And Them
This particular song kind of bridged one song to another. Nice David Gilmour t-shirt!
I've been in a Roger Waters concert last year and I was surprised with how much I liked this song in a live presentation, with all the visual effects, it was incredible.
czcams.com/video/wc7TyWHSWsA/video.htmlsi=LlRgGdZCe3kCslHd
This track is almost a breathing space after us and them before they end the album with an epic finale, great reaction as always
Honestly the final cut solo will break your heart
No lyrics, but Roger Waters had a strong idea about the choice of the title (Any Color You Like) and its meaning. In Cambridge, where he lived at the time, vendors came from London in vans to sell bric-a-brac of cheap crockery and cutlery. One day when one of them had hooked up a customer for a set of Chinese plates, Roger overheard him selling his product, adding:
"Yes ma'am, you can have them for 10 pounds, the color of your choice, they are all BLUE (Any color you like, they're all blue)" Which led him to believe that all choices in a man's life are guided. No matter what path you take, karma will always catch up with you. Man thinks of making his own decisions, choosing his own color, but everything is already dictated, everything is BLUE. Typically Waters metaphor.
I always thought it was in reference to Henry Ford being asked what colors the Model T came in. "You can have any color you like. As long as it's black".
Counting Crows' - "Return of the Grievous Angel" Live at Codfish Barn Hollow in Moqueketa, Iowa very energetic country
Great reaction as always Stacey! Brain Damage/Eclipse must be listened to together. And for all the appreciation you've showed for each song individually, once you get to the entire album reaction I know your mind will be even more blown.
Still the BEST album to test if your speakers or headphones are really goooood!!
You really need to do “Welcome to the Machine” . I absolutely love your reaction vids. Straight and true. Floyd is the best band ever and ever will be.
Stacey the first Pink Floyd fan after me !
You don't need drugs to enjoy Pink Floyd. You need Pink Floyd to enjoy drugs.
Spot On! Back in the 70s, whenever we tripped, Pink Floyd found their way to the turntable.🔊
I never ever used any drugs of any kind. And It's the one band I know every song, every context from books, videos or else. Been a fan for over 30 years now.
👍👍. Excellent comment!

Stacey you need to react to Rush the Canadian trio and one of the greatest drummers in the world Neil Peart who is no longer with us. It's a wild ride seeing him playing with two drum kits put together by DW drums. Have a great weekend!😁
All those amazing sounds and it’s 1973 amazingly ahead of their time. Even it was released today it’s still ahead of its time.
I love this song!!!!
Happy birthday!
Your sister is the best sister on the planet with this gift!
This Pink Floyd album is the first LP that I bought when I was 14 (a long, long time ago, I'm 51 now), CDs, PCs and mp3s didn't exist at the time and not even internet! Young people today can't imagine how lucky they are to have such easy access to all the world's music thanks to the internet.
I listened to this album tons and tons of times, I learned with my guitar to play "Money" and "Time" (by ear... self-taught)
It remains one of my favorite albums in my collection, between the albums of Radiohead, the Beastie boys, Aerosmith, Led Zepplin, Faith no more... and so many other very good groups.
But I recognize that Pink Floyd is the upper floor, the other side of the universe! This group has something special that far exceeds all other groups.
Listening to the songs again, I realize that in my time, there was an animated cartoon called Cobra Space adventure. I actually think that the creator of this animated series (Buichi Terasawa who sadly passed away last year) was a big fan of Pink Floyd. the music themes are really inspired by the style that Pink Flod had in the 70s.
Coming back to the music, I sincerely think that if you really like Pink Floyd, you will also really like Radiohead who are a group that goes a bit in all directions in the styles of their music but they are fabulous too. Maybe I would suggest you start with one of these "street siprit" tracks "Paranoid Android", "How To Disappear Completely", "Exit Music (For A Film)" or the legendary "Creep".
Greetings
I first heard this song the day the album was released in 1973, and at the time I thought of it as just an extended jam to fill time on the B side of the album. Over the years my opinion has changed drastically until now I consider it one of the better songs on an album that is basically a string of wall to wall masterpieces.
Pink Floyd was born in an era where 8-Track was the new tech, you could only buy on Vinyl or 8-Track. Which is probably why every song bleeds seamlessly into the next and even the last song bleeds perfectly into the first song...8-Tracks played the entire recording on a loop, so Pink Floyd adhered to that format for the best listening experience.
You do know that was the format for all music at the time, right. The songs flow one into the other because that's how Pink Floyd wanted it. 8-tracks were the bane of music listeners as they often broke the middle of the song to change tracks. I preferred cassettes for that reason.
Any Colour is a stand alone listen. Keep it up girl.
One of my favorite instrumental songs from PF is Marooned from the Division Bell album. I think you will love it.
From 5:53 until the end of the song they are actually quoting Breathe's chord progression. Actually you can hear that same theme repeating throughout the whole album. It's pretty cool :D
Thanks again for your reactions, they make me listen to songs I probably forgot about after playing them one too many times years ago.
Drifting around the tubes and came across your channel. Always love seeing someone finding their way to Floyd. It's just an experience. I was lucky enough to see Pink Floyd in Cava Dei Tirreni Italy in the 80's when I stationed over there with the US Navy and found myself 2nd row center to the stage for the Delicate Sound of Thunder concert (close enough to see David and feel the fire!) Ended up framing the program and my ticket recently and have it hanging over my turntable. One of those defining concerts that so many will never be able to experience these days. One of the few bands that I start listening to and find myself losing hours out of the day...
This was a transition instrumental. If you listen to their albums, they are free flowing from song into the next seamlessly.
Have no fear listening to the entire album! Even the songs you’ve reacted to so far will take on added dimensions. The others are correct though, it’s time for the album thanks for the many great Pink Floyd reactions it’s a lot of fun
You have gotten so good at dropping right into the groove of Pink Floyd! Yes, this is a transitional track between "Us and Them" and "Brain Damage/Ecliplse" but it is also a masterwork of Pink Floyd's improv jamming combined with Alan Parsons' revolutionary stereo sound design. There are elements of this that showed up in the first Alan Parsons' Project album "Tales of Mystery and Imagination," particularly tracks like "The Raven" and "(The System of) Dr. Tarr and Professor Feather." Parsons went on to put these kind of not-quite-clashing base and treble elements in the extended movement of "Turn of a Friendly Card" / "Snake Eyes" / "Ace of Swords" / "Nothing Left to Lose" / "Turn of a Friendly Card II" and all the later albums. To some extent, both Pink Floyd and Alan Parsons spent the ensuing decades revisiting this ethic, and judged themselves on how well they had achieved it.
If you want a real mind-freak, go listen to what Eric Wolfson, Alan Parsons, and Andrew Powell achieved with "Silence and I," both on the original album track and in the Parsons "Live in Columbia" performance years later with a live orchestra and rock band. It is perhaps the greatest exhibition of the autistic mindset ever put to sound, interlacing periods of single-soul isolation with up to 8 layers of complex overwhelming acoustic dynamics -- just try, try, try to hear them all at once, and you may have some idea of what it means to say "Welcome to my world."
For that matter, you could draw a parallel between "Money" / "Us and Them" from Dark Side that continues into the Wolfson/Parsons/Powell operatic powerhouse "La Sagrada Familia" as commentary on societal conflicts.
This particular song sounds so early 70's that's what I like about it specially the guitar parts, all the times I listened to the whole album this song usually went right above my head cause I was just waiting for "Brain Damage" until one day I noticed the different guitar parts, the bass line, the drums, the keyboards, and suddenly I was blown away by it, no lyrics needed it's a beautiful piece of music.
Richard Wright in the spotlight on this one (even with Gilmour's great solo)! This is my favorite track on the album for reasons similar to your thoughts about how it made you feel and see while hearing it!
Brilliant you have done this track !!!often overlooked as it is a linking instrumental but i have always loved it
Please do the whole album and let us watch your reaction. It is a work of art and one hell of an experience!
I like how you said that they expand your horizons because I personally feel that they have expanded my life in every way and all of the colours of life are in their music.
Another awesome reaction.
I'm not advocating for drug use, but this is one of those songs that gets better with the lights down low and with a nice hazy feeling.
Just a few bongs will do
It is ok to color outside of the lines in your coloring book. Much like Pink Floyd colors outside the lines in their music. There are no limits with what this band can do.
This particular song always triggers something I'm not sure I can describe but will try! It starts with an eargasm and targets a devine scensor giving me somewhat of a weightless experience. I know it is weird but it does what it does. Stacey, I've been re-experiencing Pink Floyd with all your reactions and am enjoying them A LOT! Happy Birthday and what a wonderful gift from your sister! Keep them coming one at a time, I am fine with that because I know you intend to get to full album reactions later. The best part about it is that the journey with PF will be that much longer and richer in my opinion.
Gilmour also has about 6 solo albums that are Great
New one coming in September
I first bought this album when it first came out must have been 13/14…… blew my little mind…….still one of my faves tho…..that and the wall obviously
My dear Stacey. Original vinyl dated 1973 is still at my parents' home. And one of the first memories in my life is my father in our living room listening to it relaxing after work. Thank you as usual ❤
The title refers to the what Henry Ford said when asked what colours his model T car would be available in, he said "you can have any colour you like - as long as it's black!" It implies a false sense of choice, a Hobson's choice, the necessity of accepting one of two or more equally objectionable alternatives.
This track is one of few on the Dark Side of the Moon album that I think should be played in "sets". Primarily because of the way the songs lead into each other. One example is Time/Great Gig in the Sky... The other is Any Color You Like/Brain Damage/Eclipse.
Got this as my ringtone. One of my favourite bits of music ever.
Had a guy helping with my roof a few weeks ago and I was outside talking to him and the phone went. He got a great big grin on his face and we ended up chatting about it for a while after the call. 😃
That's a very nice gift from your sister
Hearing this in stereo with the Gilmour playing the solo riffs in opposing ears makes hearing this almost sound like a duet. Fantastic mixing for hearing with a good set of headphones.
Hiya just to say the concert your watching pulse tour it was 1994 at earls court London and I was lucky to have been there the night then dvd was recorded so I'm watching you watching them 👍👍
Congrats on getting Dark Side. I first heard it when I was 12. It changed my life. I now have 20 copies....
Happy birthday Stacey Dark side of the moon yes u must listen to this album right thru thats it
May I suggest Meddle as your next album? My personal favorite. It’s a perfect mix of dark, light, softness, whimsy with an epic conclusion.
My father left me with his entire record collection including an early edition of DSOTM. Miss you dad, shine on.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Stacey....LOVE the shirt!!
hello Stacey 😀you should put a vinyl player on your Throne list😉
Good idea!
happy belated Birthday!
Happy Birthday! When you get a record player, the sound will change, as the body of a vinyl playback is so much fuller than the sharpness of a digital media playback. You have a great first album.
This track was meant to be a setup to another, not necessarily on its own.
Stacy
This is why that Dark Side of the Moon lasted on Billboard's Top 200 for over 700 weeks probably more now since you and other reactors seeing this classic album.
Here is another instrumental that you should listen too. It's called Marooned. It's a beautiful song where David's guitar soars and touches your soul
I did a painting in school to this song with my headphone on - had a huge canvas on the wall and tried to draw rhythms and melodies with all kind of different colours. Useless to mention that my teacher was quite impressed :D
A lesser known album, but for me one of the most powerful, is The Final Cut. (especially the track "The Gunners Dream")
Pink Floyd takes you to another place always. This song wow wow wow!
Soul pirssing LOVE IT!
This song segues into the greatest 2 song ending to an album in history. Make sure you listen to the two of them in the same setting. They flow into each other perfectly.
This song is kinda a musical bridge between main songs and that is long enough to get a name. That's why you either ask fans about song to listen one by one or listen to the whole album hehe. And by the way, Pulse have full Dark Side of the Moon in song order exactly like the album.,
I see it as less of a song and more of a piece of music, which greets one song and bids farewell to another, and also a reason there are no lyrics. It's one of a few pieces that are the reason that this album MUST be listened to from beginning to end. That's why it really has no start or finish. I almost didn't watch this reaction for that reason, but I did because I enjoy watching your reactions.
best memories of Pink Floyd ! I bought this Album the first day it came in the stores near me ! ran home and while smoking good hash i listen to it and called a few friends to come over and join the experience with me ! i don t know how many times we listened to it ! maybe 3 or 4 times ! my room was inthe basement, it used to be my dad s office ! Wall to Wall carpet but no windows ! my dad wasn t smoking ! imagine my mom when she came in the room with my clean and folded clothing ! She took a step back and commented on the thick hashish smoke ! lol but i was allowed to smoke it so....lol ! she probably got a buzz just breathing while in the room ! lol 😋😎
A Great Day for Freedom is one you would really enjoy. I love the whole Division Bell album. I'm really enjoying your content.
in my younger days, there were 2 albums that I played all the time and actually wore them out replacing several times. Yes one was Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon and the other was Cheap Thrills with Janis Joplin. If you never reacted to Janis Joplin or want a good recommendation, I highly recommend Janis Joplin's Ball and Chain Live at Monterey Pop Festival. Like Pink Floyd, Janis Joplin changed what music I listened to but for different reasons.
