![LEGACY The Dark Side Of The Moon [VINYL]](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fm.media-amazon.com%2Fimages%2FI%2F61hw9WloObL.jpg&w=3840&q=75)
The Dark Side of the Moon is the eighth album by the English rock band Pink Floyd. Originally released on 1 March 1973, on the label Harvest, it built on ideas explored in the band's earlier recordings and live shows, but departs from instrumental thematic by founding member Syd Barrett. The album explores themes including conflict, greed, the passage of time, and mental illness, the latter partly inspired by Barrett's deteriorating mental state. - Developed during live performances, an early version was premiered several months before recording began; new material was recorded in two sessions in 1972 and 1973 at Abbey Road in London. The group used some advanced recording techniques at the time, including multitrack recording and tape loops. Analogue synthesizers were prominent in several tracks, and snippets from recorded interviews with Pink Floyd's road crew and others provided philosophical quotations throughout. Engineer Alan Parsons was responsible for many distinctively notable sonic aspects and the recruitment of non-lexical singer Clare Torry. The album's iconic sleeve, designed by Storm Thorgerson, depicts a prism dispersing light into colour and represents the band's lighting, the record's thematic material, and keyboardist Richard Wright's "simple and bold" design request.

Qué más decir de un trabajo como el abismal Dark side? mi experiencia con este vinilo fue de lo más gratificante, desde el precio (565 pesos en amazon) hasta el contenido extra (insert de 2 póster, uno con la banda en fotos casi inéditas y otro de las piramides de Giza ademas de 2 calcomanias pequeñas), vinilo de 180 gramos que con esta remasterización suena excelso, cada nota, efecto, coro y eco están ahí, detectables para el oído, mejor que digital. De la composición pues no queda más qué decir; es uno de los trabajos mejor logrados de la historia, un avance monumental sonoro que aun, hoy en día, nos sigue fascinando, conmoviendo y asombrando. La tapa viene en Book top y se abre para mostrarnos otra ilustración interna de las ondas en arcoiris y las letras de las canciones. Paqueteria excelente con amazon.

The vinyl is dead flat, heavy and perfectly centred. The lead in track even before a spin cleaning were so quiet a I had to crank my volume control to make certain everything was on. This far surpasses my original near mint pressing in dynamics, and clarity from beginning to the end of each side, where my other copies suffer inner groove distortion. Tracking is perfect, even with a high compliance cartridge/stylus on a medium tonearm. The album jacket is less glossy than my original or reissue, and this is beautiful. I took a chance because the feature is not in the description, but it's a gorgeous gatefold, with all the inside goodies. Truly a wonderful product at a sensational price for all you get. Tremendous job!

Glaube zu Pink Floyd und diesem Album muss nichts gesagt werden. Ich habe 4 Versionen, die UHQR, Hybrid-SACD, die erste Pressung von 1973 und diese Remastered in Half Speed. Im Klang ist diese ein Meisterwerk. Hier stimmt wirklich alles. Die Pressung ist makellos. Vor dem Hören wurde sie Ultraschall gereinigt. und dann ging die Post ab. Dynamik vom Feinsten nicht ein Knackser. Die Bässe brachial. Bitte alle Pink Floyd Vinyl in Half Speed neu heraus bringen. Für mich eine Audiophile-Referenz Vinyl. Preis von 44 Euro mehr als gerechtfertigt.

The recordings are slightly weak as they have been transferred from old analogue tapes
