March 1, 1973. Who would have thought that the album released on that day, Dark Side of the Moon, could be in sight of a staggering 50 million copies - the third best-seller of all time.



This Experience Edition of Dark Side of the Moon features
a re-engineered version of the original classic, as well as a 1974 live version recorded at The Empire Pool, at London's Wembley.

The engineers have delivered a version that's even more impressive and cleaner in sound than the original version I have listened to year in and year out since 1973.

And the bonus live recording is also stunning. I just wish I'd been there to have caught this concert.

Still, the next best thing is to enjoy both the live concert and sparkling clean sound the engineers have created from the original master tapes.
