    Notice this GREAT TT in action.

    The song is funny too.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    That song, a big hit in its day, was all the rage in the peri-pubescent set (of which I was then a member) thanks to the enthusiastic female sighing/moaning that was mixed in with the chorus.

    so -- apropos of nothing -- Chick-a-Boom always kind of reminds me of this chestnut... or maybe vice versa. :#

    I think this is satirical (?)
    I get confused... but I still thought this worth sharing with, well, a bunch of audiophiles.

    YMMV.

    Happy Monday!

    I did indeed lol when I heard that.

    Fortunately, I am above all of that nonsense.

    The Dark Side of the Moon is the eighth studio album by English rock band Pink Floyd, released on 1 March 1973 by Harvest Records. The album built on ideas explored in earlier recordings and live shows, but lacks the extended instrumental excursions that characterised their earlier work. Its themes explore conflict, greed, the passage of time, and mental illness, the latter partly inspired by the deteriorating mental state of founding member and principal contributor, Syd Barrett.
    Developed during live performances, an early version was premiered several months before recording began; new material was recorded in two sessions in 1972 and 1973 at Abbey Road in London. The group used some advanced recording techniques at the time, including multitrack recording and tape loops. Analogue synthesizers were prominent in several tracks, and snippets from recorded interviews with Pink Floyd's road crew and others provided philosophical quotations throughout. Engineer Alan Parsons was responsible for many distinctive sonic aspects and the recruitment of singer Clare Torry. The album's iconic sleeve was designed by Storm Thorgerson; following keyboardist Richard Wright's request for a "simple and bold" design, it depicts a prism spectrum, representing the band's lighting and the record's themes.
    The Dark Side of the Moon was a commercial and critical success. It topped the Billboard Top LPs & Tapes chart for a week and remained in the chart for 741 weeks from 1973 to 1988. With an estimated 45 million copies sold, it is Pink Floyd's most successful album and one of the best-selling worldwide. It has been remastered and re-released several times, and covered in its entirety by several acts. It produced two singles, "Money" and "Us and Them". It is often ranked as one of the greatest albums of all time.

    As a drummer, I always appreciate a good bass player. This is a favorite clip of mine. Went to school with this dude's kids, one of which looks very much like him and played bass for Chicago for a long, long time.

    She said she built that shelving rack. Impressive!
    I wish she was my Mom. What a collection she has and what has she sold over the years? WOW.

    But my wife says she couldn't have been my mom. ;)
    I was 50/50 but after going to Rosie's website, there's no doubt my wife was right.
