A concept album, its themes explore conflict, greed, time, and mental illness, the latter partly inspired by the deteriorating health of founding member Syd Barrett, who left in 1968. Known for its complex instrumental textures, the album firmly established Pink Floyd as one of the most innovative bands in rock history. Gilmour also pumped out what would later be hailed as some of rock's most influential lead-guitar riffs on "Money" and "Brain Damage." By all industry standards, The Dark Side Of The Moon is a phenomenon. David Gilmour took a huge chunk of the music - writing, laying down the chord progressions on "Breathe," "Time," and "Any Colour You Like," plus the singing on the album's best songs, Water conceeding to David's far superior voice. This is Pink Floyd at its collective finest, with everyone contributing. And as this is a hybrid disc, the album is of course also playable on a standard CD player. The SACD also of course includes a stunning stereo mix. How lucky we all are to hear this legendary studio recording realize its full potential.
