Classic Albums: The Making of The Dark Side of the Moon
Description
IMAGINE ORIGINAL MEMBERS ROGER WATERS, DAVID GILMOUR, NICK
MASON & RICHARD WRIGHT BEHIND THE SOUNDBOARD TELLING YOU ALL THE STORIES ABOUT
RECORDING THE BIGGEST AND BEST SELLING CATALOG ALBUM OF ALL TIME.
The most phenomenal recording in rock & roll history is thoroughly examined in
Pink Floyd: The Dark Side of the Moon. The Floyd’s 1973 masterpiece remained
on bestseller charts for nearly 14 years, and its enduring importance is
honored here by all four members of Pink Floyd and key personnel (engineer
Alan Parsons, mixing supervisor Chris Thomas, sleeve designer Storm
Thorgerson, and others) who played essential roles in the landmark album’s
creation. Produced for the Classic Albums series that originally aired on
VH-1, this thorough and thought-provoking study highlights a track-by-track
dissection of the LP’s master tapes (including the spoken-word passages that
bookend the album), superbly interlaced with archival footage, early demo
tapes, concert animations, and latter-day acoustic performances by David
Gilmour, Roger Waters, and Richard Wright to demonstrate each track’s
contribution to the final mix–a sonic exploration that extends to the
illuminating bonus features. Informative interviews abound (including Rolling
Stone senior editor David Fricke), and much-deserved credit is given to
saxophonist Dick Parry, solo vocalist Clare Torry, and former Capitol Records
chairman Bhaskar Menon, who fostered the album’s U.S. commercial success. For
Floyd fans, musicians, and studio technicians alike, this is a must-have
addition to any DVD library. –Jeff Shannon
