I first heard it all the way through at a friend’s house playing on his Dad’s state-of-the-art Bang & Olufsen turntable. High, of course. Only the best Mexican.

I first heard it all the way through at a friend’s house playing on his Dad’s state-of-the-art Bang & Olufsen turntable. High, of course. Only the best Mexican.
Been through 2 copies on vinyl and 3 cds. Ageless.
I may have to put it on... just because.
My kid fell asleep to that album every night for about 9 months.
She's fine now.
Amazon had a documentary on making the album. Strongly recommend.
Still available, just watched. 49 minutes well spent.

Interesting how after all these years just listening to The Great Gig in the Sky and the tears begin to fall. Passage of time, change, loss. But then morning comes around, find a reason to get out of bed, make that money, pay those bills. Life goes on.
Until it don't.

And if that weren’t enough, FLips also made a companion album called Flaming Side of the Moon:

Nice, but now I wanna actually hear King Crimson do it! ;-)
You noodlers out there might find this interesting...
