by Pink Floyd. If not, you are in for the experience of a lifetime. I"ve been watching reaction videos of young and mostly black people listening to such music for the first time and they are blown away. I feel so lucky to be born in 1960, if just for the music I grew up with.

I remember this album scaring me when I was 3 or 4. My dad would put the record on and all the random sounds and laughs freaked me out. I would start crying until he changed records.

This isn't the thread for me. I own it on vinyl.

Wow - 7 downvotes - fricking morons. I cannot understand such idiocy. If you downvoted me - fine, if you downvoted Dark Side of the Moon - you need to check yourself - you're pretty stupid.

Maybe the down votes because the thread was in the wrong board?

Don't you feel those reaction videos are a tad bit patronizing?

I get your point - yes a bit. But I did have a real life circumsance with a co-worker who discovered Pink Floyd, Yes, Led Zepplin and other good music from the 70's - so I have seen genuine discovery and appreciation - without the desire fo clicks.

Probably because you are stoned. I was the 9th downvote. Born in ‘62 and never liked Floyd.

Downvotes probably because reaction videos are fake and created to make the person who likes what is being presented to the uninitiated feel better about themselves when the new listener is "blown away."

Blasphemy.

I was born in 62 and had siblings that were 8 & 10 years older than me so I was exposed to some great music as a kid that I maybe would have missed if I had been the oldest.

I saw the landscape of rock and roll and popular music change as rarely has since.

Heard it…don’t really understand the appeal. Maybe just not my style.

You haven’t lived if you’ve never dropped acid and listened to Dark Side.

DSOTM has been PLAYED TO DEATH over the last 50 years. Instant channel changer for me.
