The Dark Side of the Moon is the eighth studio album by Pink Floyd, released in March 1973. Built around themes of time, greed, mental health and mortality, it became one of the best-selling albums in history - with over 50 million copies sold worldwide - and spent a record-breaking 996 weeks on the Billboard chart. The live concert production brings the album to the stage in full, accompanied by a laser and light show, with musicians drawn from Pink Floyd's own touring history.
