Pink Floyd: Dark Side Of The Moon (Harvest).
Tony Stewart, NME, 10 March 1973
SINCE THEIR performance of this work at the Brighton Dome last year, when, due to technical hitches, the piece fell apart half way through, the structure of Dark Side Of The Moon has developed considerably. Like an aircraft, or spaceship, it has been the subject of numerous modifications to enable lift-off. The result is what is aptly described by one of the cuts as The Great Gig In The Sky.
