Dark Side A Cappella

Thanks to reader Jon who, properly recognizing the Fredösphere's status as the 17th greatest expert of all time on the subject of choral arrangements of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, has sent me a link to Freddie Feldman's production of an a cappella version.  You will be gratified to learn great atttention was given to the album's timings so that "Wizard of Oz Compatibility" is preserved. Clearly, the album art steals the show; I enjoyed the sound clips, but found the leads a bit less compelling than the Pink Floyd's.  I guess that's why the original is the 17th greatest-selling album of all time.  Way to go, PF -- you're almost as good as Hootie and the Blowfish!
