Dark Side of the Moon selected for National Recording Registry

I love this song.

Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon was selected by the US Library of Congress for the National Recording Registry! 

The recording that received the highest number of public nominations for this year's registry was The Dark Side of the Moon, Pink Floyd's groundbreaking 1973 album.

The library said it was an example of "brilliant, innovative production in service of the music".

I still remember the first time I listened to it, with my hip little sister of all people. Damn, that was a long time ago.

Thanks for sharing this news & video! As for Pink Floyd memories = 1970 in an apartment full of fellow college friends listening to Fireside Theater albums, psychedelic posters on the wall lit with black lights when another kid arrived with a Pink Floyd record he bought in England.

Their song "Careful with that Axe Eugene" came on which blew us all away....it was the first time any of us had heard of Pink Floyd....devoted fan ever since!
