It was 50 years ago Pink Floyd released one of the quintessential albums of all time in Dark Side of the Moon. October 13, Pink Floyd/Warner Music will release a remastered edition of the epic title in Vinyl, CD and blu-ray.

Coincidentally (?), Roger Waters is releasing Dark Side of the Moon Redux, which is a complete re-interpretation of the entire album on his own terms.

My personal favorite off the album. I have 2 copies of the vinyl, one still sealed brand new and a second I play.

Dark Side was a weird Floyd album for me.  It took me way too many years to view it a positively as the rest of the world did.

Ive always been a big fan of PF back to the mid 70s but there was always another album grabbing my attention.  Meddle, Animals, Wish You Were Here, The Wall...

 

It wasn't until some time after I saw them on the Delicate Sound of Thunder tour that I sort of forced myself to really stop and really listen to Dark Side.

 

Still not my favorite Floyd album but it is unquestionably fuging epic.

Not even a top 4 on my PF list. Although groundbreaking, commercially huge and a seminal album for a kid like me at 17 when it came out, radio just beat "Time" and "Money" to death in Southern California.

 But Wish You Were Here, Meddle, Wall and Animals are my top 4; and they interchange where on that list depending on where I'm at musically/mentally on any given day. Hell, I didn't sit down with my Koss Pro IV-X headphones and critically and appreciatively listen to it until the 90s. One cannot "get" PF unless they listen to an entire release, front to back, in order.

      Did someone say "hybrid" player?

      OK, we are letting our top RB go.  We have Chuba, Etienne, and Brooks.  Imagine a player who could LEGITIMATELY play the slot and back up at RB?  I am sure he'd be a special team player as well.  I noticed him at the combine, and thought, "Here is a late rounder who could stand out as a slot and provide depth at RB. Without further ado....(I know one Huddler who might be able to tell us more about this guy): Navy running back/wide receiver Eli Heidenreich headlined the 2026 NFL Combine for the Midshipmen, running an official 4.44-second 40-yard dash and recording 16 reps on the bench press. Recognized as a versatile, "Swiss army knife" offensive weapon, Heidenreich solidified his draft stock as a potential day three target.    Eli Heidenreich (RB/WR - Navy) 2026 Combine Performance: 6'0" 200 lbs.   40-Yard Dash: 4.44 seconds. 10-Yard Split: 1.55 seconds. Vertical Jump: 35.5 inches. Broad Jump: 10' 0". Bench Press: 16 Reps. Highlights: Showcased as a premier receiving threat from the backfield, having left Navy as the program's all-time leader in receiving yards (1,994). High character.  Smart.  Maybe, just maybe....

      I don’t think the concept is bad thinking. That money this year is a ball buster, for getting nothing out of it.    gives him a little future location security and maybe hope that if he can get back we’ll pay him, with a renegotiation. Could give us some relief this year. That is kind of creative.
