I’m in touch with the dark side of Pink Floyd This classic album is one you should not avoid Needle placed on the record, and I hear the first track The music speaks to me and I keep coming back Time passes and I breathe as I listen to on the run The great gig in the sky sure sounds like lots of fun When I stare at the prism on the album cover Its design is so unique, quite unlike any other A prism will create any colour you like Rock music appeals to guys on their motorbike I don’t need a lot of money to listen to this band Floyd’s music eclipses all other, I'm sure you understand Contest Rock and Roll Fest Sponsored by Phillip Garcia Tracks in bold are titles from Dark Side of The Moon by Pink Floyd 08~09~16

Good to see you got into this fun contest, Jan. I don't know much about Pink Floyd except that Money song, which unfortunately became the theme song for Trump's Apprentice show!! (which now gags me!!) Good luck. I hope we both win.
