Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

Timeless.............. It sounds as fresh now as the first day I heard it.

Without question, would have to be on any short list of the greatest rock albums.

Love the Floyd. My local radio station has been paying tribute to the album, which makes a nice relaxing ride to work. Thanks for acknowledging the anniversary, @renfield.
Still one of my favorite albums of all time. Blew my 15 year old mind then, and holds up just as well 50 years later. It's too bad the band imploded, but such is the life cycle of most rock bands.
Definitely one of my favorite albums of all time.
Funny story - I have an old car CD player setup on my workbench so I can listen to something while I work. I had DSOTM loaded up, and my wife comes upstairs and says "Your son is downstairs listening to Pink Floyd". Haha my 6 year old?
So I go down there and sure enough, he's propped himself up on the workbench and it's playing away.
I ask him why he's listening to that music, and he says "It helps me imagine video games I'd like to create"

A good set of headphones, a dark room and Dark Side. Never gets old.

At school, when I was about 12, we had this music teacher who was sexy in a cute girl-next-door kind of way. My god did I have a thing for her!
In class one day, she was playing us different CDs for some reason that I forget, I think to show us different ways of doing a song intro.
Before she puts the next one on, she gives some preamble about Roger Waters and his Dad and all that, then slips the CD in and plays the opening to the album. All the noises and sounds; the guy talking; building up to that glorious Em9 chord and then... she turned it off, creating the biggest case of musical blue balls in my life.
I just had to get that album.
Thank you Miss M, you'll never know the things you did to me.

That band is just timeless. I just hope our local station doesn't play it as often as they do.
Having played in cover bands for several years now, I can fully understand how and why so many bands implode. The ones that last for decades are a real rarity for good reason.
