most people think of pink floyd as darkside of the moon, but if you listen to their earlier stuff you will truly appreciate how good of a band they were, albums such as animals, meddle, a soucerfull of secrets, piper at the gates of dawn, and obscurred by clouds to name a few. not to say dark side of the moon is not a good album considering it is influenced and based on syd barret, the man who created and named pink floyd and to say the least started pshycadelic music altogether but was only on their first album due to becoming mentally insane and put into a phych ward because of his use of LSD (which was also created by the government and once legal) which is what the dark side of the moon is about, syd barret going insane, he recently died for those who were unaware
