On August 5, 1967, the first album of the famous rock band Pink Floyd, “The Piper at the Gates of Dawn,” was released. Pink Floyd is a legendary band with deep philosophical lyrics, incredible album covers and a surreal style. These five rock musicians turned the music world upside down in their time. Flying pigs, mind-blowing concerts, walking hammers... It makes you want to listen to the famous song Another Brick in the Wall again.
