It’s the 35th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon album falling OFF the Billboard Album charts in 1988, after it debuted 15 years earlier! It set all kinds of records, a combined total of 981 weeks on the chart. Dark Side of the Moon has sold over 45 million copies worldwide, making it the best-selling album of the 1970s and, in 2012, it was added to the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress as being, "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.” Roger Waters knew it was something special when they made it because, as he related, when he played it for his first wife, it brought her to tears.
Roger Waters explains WHY he felt compelled to re-record Dark Side of the Moon. Should Roger (or any artist) attempt to 're-make' a masterpiece???
