Thanks! I’ve downloaded the chart to keep in handy.
Plus, Thing I’ve Learned Today (From Silly Girl) – Piper is not a concept album (I’m still a newbie)

@SgtPeppersBulldog Oh yes, that is my absolute favourite Floyd album (if you hadn’t inferred as much by the amount of time I spent Raving and Drooling about it on the PFS ). It’s really as much a classic as DSOTM, although it mayn’t be quite as accessible, as the songs are longer. But if you can stomach the lengthiness, ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’ is one of the greatest pieces of music ever created by humans, in my umble hopinion.

It’s not too tricky. South Kensington tube station, then a walk up the long tunnel, use exit 3.

I’d love to go but I have to say no because I live in the US, but I bet that Joe or meanmistermustard would like to join you, they may live in Wales and Scotland respectively but they’re a lot closer than a lot of people on this forum. On a different note, I would like to praise The Dark Side Of The Moon for being such a great album. This album is so great, it’s one of the best if not the best progressive rock album of all time and shows that you don’t need The Beatles to make a great album, I especially like how it’s like one big medley and how it seems like the circle of life and to be honest, it’s very hard to listen to any song off this album without thinking about @Beatlebug and this is one of those albums that you have to listen to in it’s entirety to get the full effect, it’s not like News Of The World where you can just listen to tracks individually.

Yeah. Dark Side Of The Moon is unbelievable. It seems to have a reputation of being mindblowing to all listeners.

Time for a random comment, I personally think the songs on side A of Pink Floyd’s 1973 progressive rock epic The Dark Side Of The Moon segue together better than side B.
I personally feel that side 2 flows much better. ‘On The Run’ has always felt like a stagnant moment to me — the only lull on an otherwise flawless album.
That having been said, I absolutely adore ‘Breathe’, ‘Time’ (including the ‘Breathe’ reprise), ‘The Great Gig In The Sky’, and the segue between the latter three.

I remember when I first put on DSOTM. I sat down for a moment, thinking that I hadn’t placed the needle on the record correctly. I was about to get up and have a look, then suddenly…

I like the transition between Breathe and On The Run, listen to the lyrics of the 2nd verse of Breathe:
David Gilmour said
Run, rabbit run.
Dig that hole, forget the sun,
And when at last the work is done
Don’t sit down it’s time to dig another one.
This represents how the person who was once a happy child grows up and hates working and how he never gets a break from it, so one day he all of a sudden decides to escape his life and makes a run for it, which is why it goes from mellow and relaxed to fast paced in an instant.
I also think that the transition from On The Run to Time works very well, the man who’s running eventually burns out and is now waiting his life away, which is where Time kicks in. The man has nothing to do, so he doesn’t really do anything, he returns to his old house at the end of the song only to die, which is where our final song of side A, The Great Gig In The Sky, comes on, the weakest transition on side A but it still does a good job.
As for side B, the songs all transition fine, but not nearly as good as side A, although I think the transition from Brain Damage to Eclipse is excellent.
