Album 989



Pink Floyd - Animals
Year: 1977

The year is 1977, the Sex Pistols have perfected the punk song, all about anarchy, sex and holidays in the sun. Meanwhile, in la la land, Pink Floyd have created a concept album about a George Orwell book, no, not 1984 although that would have been awesome, Animal Farm. Yes it's Animals, and yes notorious failure and all around bad guy Roger Waters has started to take control of the bands direction. But all that aside, Pink Floyd still managed to create their last great album, and for that it does need all the praise it deserves. This album truly is great, it is a fine example, late in the game, of a fine prog concept album, worth noting that Eloy's Ocean also came out this year. Anyways, toke up and enjoy.

3 Choice Tracks: With only 3 songs long enough to count I don't think this is quite necessary.
