Dark Side of the Moon is the ONLY complete album that I've heard that I consider 5 stars, every song.
I dig a lot of albums but every other album has at least 1 weak link in it (usually more than 1). Dark Side, however, is a complete masterpiece. Amazing; I can't stand to listen to just one song in it, i want to hear it in entirety.
The one song, on this PF album in particular, that stands out is Money. I love the message about capitalism and money in general, I love the early use of samples, I love the overlapping rhythms in the intro, it's just a great track and works well by itself.
Of course, it doesn't hurt Money that it is immediately followed up by Us and Them... but that's a whole 'nother lengthy post!
