That's one of the two Pink Floyd songs I've heard. The other one was "Another Brick in the Wall."

No, I'm not. I seriously never got interested in Pink Floyd--or Led Zeppelin, or any of the other "heavy metal"/"acid rock" groups from the '70s. I called that stuff "suburban white boys' music" or "drug music." Never cared for it.

I listened to music on the radio from about 1962 to 1975. During the 1960s, I listened to the Beatles, other Top 40 groups and singers, and soul music (e.g., Wilson Pickett, Marvin Gaye, the Four Tops, Aretha Franklin). During the early '70s, I was listening to Creedence Clearwater Revival, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Al Green, the Spinners, the Stylistics, etc.

One group I didn't listen to much in the late '60s to mid 70's, but which I have come like in the last ten years or so, is the Moody Blues.

“Money” was definitely NOT on Pink Floyd’s first album.

I believe “Dark Side” was their eighth album.
