Dark Side of the Moon A Cappella" is an all-vocal version of Pink Floyd's magnum opus "Dark Side of the Moon." No instruments were used in the recording of this unique version of the album. Eight singers and one "vocal percussionist" (similar to a beatboxer) recreate the original work in its entirety.
The album was recorded in High Definition, without breaks between the tracks (as in the original), and is as close to the original in timing as possible, thus preserving its "Wizard of Oz Compatibility." Produced and mixed by the renowned a cappella Producer, Freddie Feldman, and mastered by Grammy-winning engineer Doug Sax, this recording breaks new ground in both the worlds of a cappella and rock.
Singers: Stephanie Lewin, Jennifer Feucht, Melissa Smithson, Jon Krivitzky, Michael Mahler, Chris Feucht, Alan Schmuckler, Dan Riley, and Freddie Feldman. Music arranged by: Jon Krivitzky.
Nominated for Best Album, Contemporary A Cappella Recording Award (CARA) 2006.
"Outstanding! Absolutely outstanding job!"

"It's a fun disc--I enjoyed listening to it."

eight voice (i think) production. I\'m a Barbershopper A Cappella singer; I really enjoyed not only the melody but the voice percussive parts. Good for a road trip since I had time to hear the whole album. Nothing of mine is here, but barbershop is classified Easy Listening> Barbershop or Moods> A Cappella. Try Thurl Ravenscroft who did both Tony the Tiger and the singing voice of the Grinch. Or Welcome to NashVille for current Barbershop stuff.

Masterpiece
author: Manish
I would've thought that "dark side of the moon" would be pretty odd (or bad) choice for an a cappella performance, what with all the sound effects. But these guys seemed to have thought otherwise, did it and did an excellent job. The imitation of ringing cash registers at the start of 'money' is pretty ingenious. I am particularly amazed by the percussion on all the songs - far too realistic.
CDbaby.com's great service also deserves a mention - my copy was cracked when I received it - one phone call and the replacement was on its way the same day. Many thanks! :)
Oh and it is my sixth copy of Dark Side of the Moon.

A great work
author: Pepijn Verlaan
The original is unsurmountable, but this does a great job in replicating it. I am however missing some new interpretation. Now it's just a unique way of performing the music, it could have been even more.
