Pink Floyd---Dark Side of the Moon

You should all be listening to this album sometime today, (Sunday).

Today is the 40th Anniversary of the release of what is one of, if not THE greatest album ever.

Warm up those tubes, Fellas. It's nostalgia time.

Dave

I went to see the very first Laserium at Griffith Observatory in LA when I was 17 (almost 40 years ago.)

They started the show with Dark Side Of The Moon in a pitch black planetarium. With the pulsing heart beat intro barely visible at first they had red laser pulses beating in time.

When they launched into the song, 'Breathe', the immense dome of the planetarium was lit up in an instant with the utterly amazing sight of thousands and thousands of stars, forming the night sky over Los Angeles.

You could hear hundreds of people gasp as one, then let the air out of their lungs in one huge exclamation of wonder as they brought up the unobscured night sky of LA that no one had seen since the advent of street lights and smog, sixty to seventy years earlier.

It was the closest thing to a religious experience this side of a big handful of mushrooms or peyote buttons that I've ever had.

Interesting read here about the founder of the Laserium at Griffith Observatory http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_Dryer

Listened to DSOTM last night on the Beyer DT880s through the BH Crack. This afternoon in the car on my way to pickup my date. Tonight, after Sis leaves for work, it'll be through the 9302 feeding the E-Waves. And I WILL put her through her paces!

She will sound very sweet, as I already have the tubes already warming up; Mullard 6EU7s driving GE 6BQ5s. (I find that is the absolute best combo in this amp.)
