One of the most iconic and influential albums ever, Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side Of The Moon celebrates its 50th Anniversary. The album was partly developed during live performances, and the band premiered an early version of the suite at London’s Rainbow Theatre several months before recording began. ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ is the eighth studio album by Pink Floyd, originally released in March 1973. The new material was recorded in 1972 and 1973 at EMI Studios (now Abbey Road Studios) in London. The iconic sleeve, which depicts 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. The new deluxe box set includes CD and gatefold vinyl of the newly remastered studio album and Blu-Ray + DVD audio featuring the original 5.1 mix and remastered stereo versions. The set also includes additional new Blu-ray disc of Atmos mix plus CD and LP of ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon - Live At Wembley Empire Pool, London, 1974’.

Unbelievably Awesome!
I debated before buying on whether the juice was worth the squeeze. I'm glad that I pulled the trigger, because this set is incredible. Nothing beats the sound of high-quality vinyl! There are also CDs, poster, a great photo album, etc. I'm so glad that I bought this. Sets the standard for any to come after.

VERY IMPRESSIVE!!!
I love everything about this set! It comes with 2 books, a photo book with mostly unseen photos from the period in the studio and the DSOTM tour. The second book is a DSOTM music book, includes lyrics, piano and basic guitar chords - unfortunately no Tablature though. It also comes with 3rd booklet of DSOTM artwork, 4 UK issue posters, 2 DSOTM stickers, a 180gram LP of the studio album and 180gram LP of the Wembly concert, these both appear on the CD as well as the Bluray, DVD all in 5.1 surround sound. Also included are 2 7 inch singles. Of course there's the ATMOS disc as well. It was well boxed and packaged, this set weighs a ton! I would had loved it if they had included the 1972 Rainbow or Brighton concerts which represented the DSOTM in it's earliest form, which is very different and not quite as polished but more interesting in some aspects, every Pink Floyd fan should give it a listen on YouTube. This set is a bit overpriced but it's also one of the greatest recording of the century... Maybe ever?!! See you on the Dark Side Of The Moon

a must for a true fan
I meant to buy it when it came out but expenses hit me that part of the year. I have bought a similar set for the Beatles and Led Zeppelin. The remastered sound is even more magical than before and the CDs you get are in many advanced formats. I own the earlier CD additions and record additions of Pink Floyd including the 24-carat gold CD edition from Mobile Fidelity and these remastered and remix versions of this one are what one would expect and more. You need these formats as the streaming options are compressed in comparison. Supporting books and materials are well worth the premium.

Excellent set.
A must have for a true fan. Brilliant. Excellent seller, delivered with ultra care, multiple boxes to avoid damage and very quickly. As for the content of the box, all a true fan would want. Excellent quality of the box, printed content and the LPs are perfectly made. This is worth every penny.

Of course, the product is of high quality, the people who made it know exactly what they had to do, it is a tribute to one of the most important groups in history, with one of the most iconic and famous albums ever made. in history, that's why this great tribute to Pink Floy is 100% deserved, congratulations and the extraordinary work of the seller who sent it to me from another continent, without problems, without setbacks, congratulations to you too

Collectible stuff
Yes. Its expensive. Yes, the price is crazy. But thats the kind of thing that a true collector would spend his money on. So I think that if you want to have that super luxury set of goodness that is dedicated to one of the most famous rock record of all times - you should have this item in your collection. Im so happy I got mine and Im sure i did the right thing.
