Description

PINK FLOYD DARK SIDE OF THE MOON   vinyl LP UK HARVEST Q4 SHVL 804  UK Quadraphonic 1973 

Compatible with STEREO LP players and is simply AUDIBLY SUPERB!

I have acquired a large  collection of wonderful PINK FLOYD & CLASSIC ROCK LPs from a very keen and dedicated source

They are all mostly from the late 60s to late 80s - Something of a Golden Age in rock  recording

All records are inspected very carefully and 

Gradings are based on Record Collector magazine.

I try to only offer recordings in a minimum of excellent Condition unless it is something particularly rare when I will do my best to describe any visual or audible flaws 


PINK FLOYD Dark side of the Moon   QUADRAPHONIC UK pressing complete with 2 Posters 2 Stickers and Original Quad EMI Inner Sleeve

Tracks are

A1 Speak to me A2 Breathe A3 On the Run A4 Time A5 The great gig in the sky  

 Side Two






B1 Money B2 Us and them B3 Any colour you like B4 Brain Damage B5 Eclipse  

 







 

Condition  Side One  is Visually EXCELLENT and Audibly EXCELLENT with just the occasional very faint 'Tics' Side Two is Visually EXCELLENT and Audibly EXCELLENT with just the occasional very faint 'Tics'
Sleeve is Excellent with the exception of a small sticker mark near the top right corner that I am sure you can see in the photo and there are some very light signs of wear at the corner and edges - So I guess this sleeve is somewhere between EXCELLENT And VERY GOOD 
 

Dark Side of the moon is simply an iconic LP that changed the perception of rock music

but I'm sure you don't need me to tell you that  .

The QUADRAPHONIC issue  was commissioned by EMI and mixed by Alan Parsons 

(Floyd's Sound engineer) apparently it was not authorised by the band , which perhaps says

more about record labels in the 70s - However it is, to my ears a stunning mix- I have played it 

on a standard deck ( Goldring Lencko) and its the best version I have heard - I  heard textures

and subtle effects That I had not  heard before - for example The sax solo on Money is now so rich and honey like '

The piano on Us and Them is a revelation while the vocals and strange muttering voices between track have more focus and clarity .


In short The Quad Mix adds so much to what was already a near perfect LP .

  

Quadraphonic pressings are pretty rare - they were expensive at the time and aimed at a niche market

If you are lucky enough to have a Quadraphonic set up I imagine this will sound unbelievable.

A complete Treat !
