Leaving aside the innumerable surround sound and quadrophonic mixes (in keeping with the album's reputation as the hi-fi bore's demonstration disc of choice), there's a 1974 live performance, originally recorded for BBC radio, that rather pleasingly roughs up the studio gloss of the original. The first in a series of vast, costly box sets, the Immersion edition of The Dark Side of the Moon includes 10 different versions of the 48m-selling behemoth. Still, they're certainly making up for lost time now. Their peers churned out deluxe editions laden with the previously unreleased. Y ou could wish for no greater demonstration of Pink Floyd's legendary reserve than their attitude to their back catalogue.
