there is an easy argument that it isn't even Pink Floyd's best album


"easy" is a stretch but sure there are arguments to be made. I think what puts DS in a class of its own though is that for MOST people born that weren't already teens/adults in the 70s, DS is their first introduction to floyd. When high schoolers first start branching out their musical taste and are explosed to PF the first time they usually aren't getting copies of division bell or final cut from their buddies. It's almost always dark side which I think is one (of many) reaons it's held in the high esteem it is. It is most people's first taste and first love from the band.

As someone who was there then I can tell you that when “Money” dropped people were like, “what the frick is THAT!”

Then we bought the album and it was great from track 1 on side A to the last track on side B.
