THE REVIEW

In the middle of the journey of my life

I found myself in the darkest reason

as I had lost my copy of "Dark Side".

Soon I remedied this misfortune

the next day, going to such a shop

where records abound

and if someone occasionally swipes them

then the doorbell rings,

which the poor soul vainly denies!

It's worth pulling out the wallet,

it's worth it for such a masterpiece,

we were not made to live without it

what almost everyone considers suitable

for every musical user,

whether he is refined or simple-minded.

For the fool or the intellectual

the prominent music and lyrics

bring abundant joy, such as

rarely happens. For it similarly

rests the balance between the art and that rogue,

the charm of the arrangements!

Back home my hand quickly

put the CD in the player

and my body sat on the sofa

so that the hours slowly passed

as I indulged in guitar and keyboards,

of a background singer's bewitching warble

while a piano does its job below.

To be precise it now occurs to me:

the drums, to my way of seeing

I would want with a more decent sound,

but it's like disagreeing on Canalis' pears... Just like moths

the guitar solos, what a pleasure!

And the cynical bassist's lyrics

tell of war, money, the sorrow

that eternally and tragically exists,

dark, a different side of the Moon,

as this is the human great oversight:

to crave comforts and power, in a

life that should go another way

conducted, so that each one

of the things most praised

upon careful examination of conscience

none becomes like a nail

there fixed to generate resentment

in living. The beautiful music

ended with the beat of a heart.

Still with a shiver of skin

I put my CD back in the case

and from there I went out to see the stars again.

 THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON is one of the top 5 most important albums in rock history.

 An album that, more than an album, is undoubtedly a work of art in rock.


By AngeloLecce87

 Madness, suffocation, excitement, fear, relaxation, adrenaline, and pleasure blend almost imperceptibly in this thing called an "album".

 I gave this album 0 because 5 is too little.


By UcCaBaRuCcA

 It would be a crime to listen to the album in pieces.

 The texture of the music is rich in detail, and at the same time light, smooth, and it creates an environment, an atmosphere around you.


By Pepperism

 I take my mind to distant places. And I feel the madness, finally.

 Don’t tell me anymore that I am sane, the dark side of the moon changes everyone.


By AR (Anonima Recensori)

 An album is great when it belongs to Led Zeppelin or Pink Floyd, or the Doors.

 Amidst soft and unsettling tones, the journey unfolds of The Dark Side Of The Moon, which still ranks among the best-selling albums, 33 years later.
