      Initially this record sounded weird/skipped and then when I played other records it did the same to it. I gave this thing a wash with spin clean 10 times both directions and now it sounds perfect. I had to brush the needle too. Even new records can some dust and dirt in them.

      Very little pops, no more distortions. Sounds very good even if its a digital mix.

      I just wish the bells part wasn't as loud. Is there a release where the bells aren't too loud?

        I bought it because of the good reviews, but mine is very dissapointing,. Its bad quality, so bad that I dont think i will ever play it.

          I purchased this "Anniversary" reissue after reading many positive reviews but, if I compare it with the Japanese one from 1974 that I already had( https://discogs.versitio.com/release/15784599-Pink-Floyd-%E3%83%94%E3%83%B3%E3%82%AF%E3%83%95%E3%83%AD%E3%82%A4%E3%83%89-The-Dark-Side-Of-The-Moon-%E7%8B%82%E6%B0%97) the comparison doesn't hold up... money down the drain, the Japanese wins on practically all fronts

          Addition: I would like to point out that what is written is not the absolute truth but only my opinion regarding the comparison between the two vinyls I own

            I pitted my 50th anniversary today against my UK Harvest A3/B2 and while the A3/B2’s clarity, top end shimmer, and scale clearly outshone the 50th, it was still actually better than I expected. Its mastered and cut quieter compared to most versions (no doubt for dynamics) has all the weight and punch in the low end, with very decent definition and separation overall. The only other negative is that the highs can at times, sound somewhat processed but I’m nit picking here. It’s a very well mastered version that I really enjoyed to the point that I’m making this my go-to copy.

            The quality of the packaging is excellent for the money and the hype sticker is colourful and easily identifies this edition. The 180g vinyl was near silent, perfectly centred and spun flat and I like the replicated vintage labels. The record itself is housed in a poly lined anti-static sleeve, which is a welcome change to the awful and abrasive paper sleeves found in most major label releases nowadays.

            The 50th Anniversary is worth buying while prices are still reasonable. From a bang for your buck perspective, it’s great value for money and I’m happy to recommend it,.

              Since I only have an okay copy from 1973, I first thought I maybe should get the 2016 remaster, but after reading so much good about the 50th anniversary remaster i bought this one.
              It didn‘t disappoint. Great clean pressing with very good sound.

                Great release for a very reasonable price, sounds better than most vinyl released in this day & age so for anyone looking to buy this album then this release is a very safe option. Great packaging too with two nice posters which is always a nice addition.

                  Excellent pressing. Ofc it is digitally remastered but it is good sounding and a great choice if you are on a small budget. The texture of the sleeve is epic. Vinyl itself seems to be top quality as well.

                    Sounds absolutely amazing! Love the sound, Love the cover, I love everything about this LP! And it's really cheap for the quality and awesome sound you get.

                      my copy is crackly in places despite being brand new and since they started remastering it there seems to be a weird click track sounding click in the track on the run which wasn't there originally. ive heard this 2023 remaster and the 2016 version and both have it. its annoying
