Aussie Chris:
I only vaguely remember hearing about this, can you remind me what this was about?

Supposedly, if you play DSOTM together with The Wizard of Oz, there are songs and scenes that seem to be synchronized. Pink Floyd denies it, says if there is anything, it is just a coincidence. I've never tried it so I don't know how "complete" this synchronization really is...curious if anyone else has ever seen it?

A local cable channel showed The Wizard of Oz once with the "Dark Side of the Moon" accompaniment, and I remember how struck I was by the tornado sequence being even eerier. I didn't watch the film all the way through, so couldn't comment on the whole experience.
Ellemeno:
I listened to Dark Side of the Moon many, many, many, many times. I haven't smoked dope since May 1987, but I sure want to right now, thinking about this. The good thing about Dark Side of the Moon though, is it gets you stoned without drugs.
This goes well with the current rainbow thread:

I was 14 when "Money" started getting played on the radio (WNEW-FM in NY, any others who got their musical education there at THE best rock station ever?) and hearing "do goody good BULLSHIT!" Oh I loved the freedom in that going out over the airwaves.
"Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way" from "Time" goes with the Thoreau poll:

Leslie, and others, someday, let's lie on the floor in the dark together and listen to it louder than I have listened to anything in 20 years.

For me, it was WPLJ (also NYC)...stood for "White Port and Lemon Juice" which I believe was a Mothers of Invention song....we talked about the Mothers back in the day when I started the horny thread. LOL WPLJ was a great station...first time I ever listened to a station that was not based at a college that played entire sides of albums. For DSOTM they'd play the entire thing--all 45 minutes. They also played Tommy from beginning to end on a regular basis.
As for the dark...next time I'm in Seattle. I'll bring the CD.
