Visitors to Primrose Hill, London, this evening will be illuminated by a large version of one of Pink Floyd’s most famous album covers ‘Dark Side of the Moon’. It has been put in place to highlight the imminent showing of ‘Pulse: Dark Side Of The Moon Live’, the band's 1994 performance at Earls Court on the Sky Arts television channel.

A creation of Storm Thorgerson and Aubrey Powell this particular album artwork is one of the most recognisable in the world.
