Y ésta me mola por toda la historia que tiene detrás...
Me parece genial que dediquen un disco al lado oscuro de la luna, lo sincronicen con El Mago de Oz (eso es verdad, probadlo que se os queda el culo torcido!) y que encima el artwork completo de este álbum sea un homenaje a los frikis más frikis del tema (ellos mismos?) girando en torno a las pirámides, jugando con el perfil superior de un prisma para la portada y el efecto de la luz al pasarlo (mirando a través de la pirámide, la luz cambia su "sentido"). Retorcidamente genial.

Esto no es mas que una leyenda urbana.
Pink Floyd lo han negado en multitud de ocasiones, así como Alan Parsons.
Aquí hay un extracto de sus declaraciones:
Coincidence versus intent
Pink Floyd band members have repeatedly insisted that the reputed phenomenon is coincidence. In an interview for the 25th anniversary of the album, guitarist/vocalist David Gilmour denied that the album was intentionally written to be synchronized with Oz, saying "Some guy with too much time on his hands had this idea with combining Wizard of Oz with Dark Side of the Moon."[7]
On an MTV special about Pink Floyd in 2002, the band dismissed any relationship between the album and the movie, saying that there were no means of reproducing the film in the studio at the time they recorded the album.
In a 2003 interview with Rolling Stone, Dark Side of the Moon engineer Alan Parsons said of the supposed effect:
"It was an American radio guy who pointed it out to me. It's such a non-starter, a complete load of eyewash. I tried it for the first time about two years ago. One of my fiancee's kids had a copy of the video, and I thought I had see what it was all about. I was very disappointed. The only thing I noticed was that the line "balanced on the biggest wave" came up when Dorothy was kind of tightrope walking along a fence. One of the things any audio professional will tell you is that the scope for the drift between the video and the record is enormous; it could be anything up to twenty seconds by the time the record's finished. And anyway, if you play any record with the sound turned down on the TV, you will find things that work."
Yo tambien lo había oido pero no es cierto.
Una mas al saco de las leyendas urbanas!
