Pink Floyd

One of the most iconic and influential albums of all time, Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon celebrates its 50th anniversary. The album was partly developed during live performances, and the band presented an early version of the suite at London’s Rainbow Theatre several months before recording began. The Dark Side of the Moon is Pink Floyd’s eighth studio album, released in March 1973. The new tracks were recorded in 1972 and 1973 at EMI Studios (now Abbey Road Studios) in London. The iconic cover, featuring a prism spectrum, was designed by Storm Thorgerson of Hipgnosis and drawn by George Hardie. The Dark Side of the Moon has sold over 50 million copies worldwide.
