A truly mind blowing album.

I vacillate between this and Dark Side as my favorite Floyd. It seems whichever one I just listened to is my favorite at the moment.

I mean, just a damn fine album. Not gonna lie, though--the title track is one of the most overrated rock songs of all time.

Track picks
1. Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts I-V
2. Welcome To The Machine
5. Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts VI-IX

“Where does one go after achieving the pinnacle of success” with The Dark Side of the Moon?
One of Floyd's finest- a true 10/10.

One of the most relaxing rock masterpieces that I have ever listened to.

Best Floyd by some way, imo. There's no rigid concept, feels far more effortless than their other work.
