INFO
1977 The Year of Punk Music has arrived. The sound of this album was
not like the others. The sound was much more intense and "in your
face". The album was 3 hard songs with 2 soft spoken songs precluding
and succeeding these harder songs. This album began a control battle
between Roger and Dave. They fought over some royalty issues for the
album. Over the years the relationship got progressivly worse.
QUOTES
Nick Mason: "This was a bit of a return to the group feel, quite a
cheerful session as I remember. We did it in our own studio, which we'd
just built. By now Roger was in full flow with the ideas, but he
was also really keeping Dave down, and frustrating him deliberately."
Rick Wright: "I didn't like a lot of the writing on Animals, but
unfortunately I didn't have anything to offer. I think I played well
but I remember feeling not very happy or creative, partly because of
problems with my marriage. This was the beginning of my writer's
block."
David Gilmour: "On Animals I was the prime musical force. Roger was the
motivator and lyric writer."
