Dark Side Of The Moon Australia’s Favourite Album


Pink Floyd’s classic album ‘Dark Side Of The Moon’ has come out on top of a nation-wide poll conducted by the ABC to find our favourite LP’s. The album beat out Jeff Buckley and Radiohead for the number 1 spot.

The Beatles managed 2 top 10 places, and another 2 in the top 20, with Meatloaf also slotting in up top.

The full Top 10 were:

1- Pink Floyd — Dark Side Of The Moon
2- Jeff Buckley — Grace
3- Radiohead — Ok Computer
4- The Beatles — Abbey Road
5- The Beatles — Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
6- Nirvana — Nevermind
7- Led Zeppelin — Led Zeppelin 4
8- Red Hot Chili Peppers — Blood Sugar Sex Magik
9- Meat Loaf — Bat Out Of Hell
10- U2 — The Joshua Tree

Interesting members of the top 100 included Tool at 21 and 40, Missy Higgins at 30, and the quite unexpected shock of Anthony Callea at 32, ahead of such great artists as Oasis, The Smiths and Van Morrison.
