Starting after midnight Sunday in England on 8.01pm EDT on Saturday (8.01am Singapore time), fans are invited to play back the classic album on PinkFloyd.com, then tweet their memories, photos or other thoughts and comments using #DarkSide40.
The collective tweets will darken a side of the moon on the website, EMI Music said on Wednesday.
One of the best-selling albums of all time, released in the United Kingdom in 1973, The Dark Side of The Moon was Pink Floyd's first No. 1 album in the United States (US).
