Wait! Didn’t realize that was the live version. Here’s the playlist of the album:

2. Thanks.

I should have done that.

5. I got your 6 o'clock, brokephibroke!

[Ferrets are Cool]

3. I have it on SACD. In my theater room is it a surreal experience.

4. It's my number one gear-tester.

If I am buying audio gear, DSOTM is the first thing going through it. I can learn just about everything I need to know with one listen.

And the SACD version is cracking good!

6. What about Aja

I used that too.

[ZZenith]

7. Ha! That's right here on the shelf next to Dark Side.

Such perfectly balanced records - you can just reach into the mix and pick up every instrument, every nuance of each performance. Magic.

11. That as well as

about 20 other titles. My favs are Brain Salad Surgery and Stravinski's Firebird.
When I want to push my subs (2 SVS 900w with dual 12in woofers) I play Bach: The Four Great Toccatas & Fugues by E. Power Biggs. Or Beethoven: Symphonies Nos. 5 & 7.
Brothers in Arms has some great sound also, especially Ride Across the River.

8. My very first concert was DSOTM at Blossom Music Center.

Just graduated high school. Yeah....I be that old.

9. Damn, what a first show!

I didn’t see them until Animals.

10. One week later was Deep Purple

Oddly, my high school graduation was held at Blossom, too. A great venue. Gorgeous lawn to spread a blanket and enjoy the show.
