"Meddle was
the first real Pink Floyd album," agrees Mason. "It set a tempo, a feel and style that we liked, and it introduced the idea of the theme that can be returned to. It sounds a bit ham-fisted now, but the concept thing I like."
Dark Side Of The Moon
"The concept thing," introduced so effectively on Meddle, came to brilliant fruition on the band's very next release. Described by band members as a "meditation on the strain and stress of everyday life," Dark Side Of The Moon would sell over 28 million albums worldwide, become the third largest selling album of all time, and remain on Billboard's album chart for 15 years, eclipsing all previous records.
