The one Id give my nod to however is the MoFi for its impressive realism and smooth delivery. Despite the few shortcomings it probably has the best sounding version of Money that genuinely made me go "Holy shit..." and its the one I say is the essential AAA version for every Pink Floyd fan to own.

The design was inspired by a photograph of a prism with a beam of white light projected through it and emerging in the colours of the visible spectrum that Thorgerson had found in a 1963 physics textbook, [49] as well as by an illustration by Alex Steinweiss, the inventor of album cover art, for the New York Philharmonic's 1942 performance of Ludwig van Beethoven's Emperor Concerto. [75] The artwork was created by an associate of Hipgnosis, George Hardie. [49] Hipgnosis offered a choice of seven designs for the sleeve, but all four members of the band agreed that the prism was the best. "There were no arguments," said Roger Waters. "We all pointed to the prism and said 'That's the one'." [49]

It's very easy to simply chalk this up to being both a naked money grab and a way for an already over-inflated ego to find a way to add about another 500 PSI to his bloat. However, I don't really see that as the case. Waters has never been a shrinking violet, and although his ego led him to believe this was a great idea, this really does offer a new dimension to such an iconic album. Is there narcissism? Well, sure, but not so much that it takes away. At worst, Waters' need to indulge in memory and allegory just doesn't add anything. Well, except for side 4, which really is nothing more than Waters whipping out his old fella and wanking in front of us all. But really, any fear that this album will somehow result in a negative impact on the legacy of the original is completely misplaced.
