Ok. Floyd as messed up as some of their members were and still are made some of the greatest albums of all time. Now, although the modern day audience recognises some Floyd songs, we see that their focus is for great hits ie pop songs and not looking at great albums. Dark Side of the Moon is the epitomy of a great album in the way that it is essentially one extended song, as each track on the record links with the next telling a story, much like their greatest success - The Wall. This double album goes further into the concept of an album, and we see from that a film and one of the most recognisable album rcovers in rock history (although that is quite disputable) and shows Roger Waters' prowess as a writer and lyricist to make 2 of my favourite albums of the 70s although that is hard for me to accept with punk playing a large role in some of the greatest albums of that decade.
Nevertheless, I still believe Dark Side of the Moon is the best album of Pink Floyd, and possibly the best album of that decade IMO.
