Animals is my favorite album, by far. Listening to these three unreleased, alternate takes is awesome. This particular version of Pigs is great because we get to hear Gilmour's guitar work without the overdubs of sound effects and talk box, vocoder, etc... Don't get me wrong, I love the album versions, but it is always preferable to have more Floyd... Shine On...
Ditto! It is a magnificent soul journey from start of finish! It is more relevant politically and socially now than ever befor. It also forced you to take a closer look at your own ego and deal with the darkest parts of the mind...
I play guitar and piano and have learned how to play most of Dark Side of the Moon , parts of Medal,the Wall, and can assure you that this is Floyd's weakest album with no complex guitar parts and missing the most important musician of the band-Richard Wright. He walked out on this album. Funny it is one of my favorite FLoyd album's. But I have to be honest. It is far from their best work. Their most intricate stuff is on Dark Side and Wish You Were Here. Nice and light on the Waters.
The use of a talk box (for the first time by Pink Floyd), Gilmour's solo guitar but also bass guitar and its syncopated solos could stand as an underrated masterpiece of the band.I wished record companies would be focused on releasing GOOD albums by gifted musicians....because ''Music is life...'' P.S. It is an wonderful mix of progressive, blues and hard rock
William, I agree with your assessment. I think it's funny you used that word "syncopated". The first time I have every heard this word was through Floyd "Syncopated Pandemonium" from Saucerful of Secrets.
Those who had the cassette certainly remember this song fading after the first verse on the first side and fading back in on the second side. Putting it entirely on the second side of the cassette would have left over four minutes of silent tape at the end of the first side!
@@philippebernard4577 he's let a few of them get out. But would like to hear him coming with ideas for all his songs on his acoustic. he would have recorded it so he didnt forget. be interesting to here them all.
Glad they went with the version they did. Less screeching from Waters and Gilmour's solo is stronger in the studio version. Plus the talk box and cowbell were nice touches. The one thing i did like about this version was the symbols in the intro
Pink Floyd makes the best music in the world. I am listening now for over 30 years. Playing the music on my guitar. Singing it. Always knew of the animals album but never felt ready for it. I wanted it to be the pudding maybe. It blew away my mind the other day! This band should be there for ever. Thank you so much Pink Floyd.
This version sounds like it was taken from a nearly done point in the process. The solo we hear may have just been a "placeholder" until David had time and inspiration to come up with the final version that would appear on the album. The cow bell, talk box and other sound effects might also have been added near the end of recording but, before the track was mastered. A work in progress so to speak. Very cool though.
The (final) outro guitar solo sounds like a Les Paul guitar - unlike the Stratocaster we normally expect to hear from Gilmour. I still love this song. one of my favorite PF songs.
yes, but combining the sound coming from guitar with setup on the amp could produce various results, so it's very hard to say by record of the song what exactly guitar and amp was used....it's different when you are present in the studio and listen guitar directly plugged to the amp....it's hard to transfer on the record 100%....
***** Ben Culture both of you are wrong in your own way a early mix is the same recording as the final just it is not the final produced such as putting the guitar more than the bass a demo is a early recording so the band can tell how it sounds
The vocals are certainly different. Even the lyrics are changed, I think. It seems some parts of this, even the vocals, may be exactly the same as the final recording for the album. Lots of other parts have been completely redone, to make them sound better. In a way I think you're right because some parts of this exact recording seem to have been used on the final record. I'm not sure, actually, but in my opinion some of the musical parts (perhaps very many of them) appearing on this recording have been redone for the final version
mrpokemon8778 How am I wrong? Maybe I misued "final version". By that term, I meant the length of tape that becomes the master track, after things are overdubbed onto it or mixed out. The basic drum kit, bass, and rhythm guitar are all there.
In fact this is a demo. Not only for the absence of overdub and the talkbox part in the middle, the vocals are different, the lyrics are different, the mix of course is different and the most heavy fact is the final solo, it's 100% diferent from the final studio version. It's a demo. Yeah, much pretty similar to the final version if you compare it with raving and drooling/sheeps or You gotta be crazy/Dogs. But it's definitely a demo! ;) I know about what you say, yes, there are some elemnts that stills in the final version, but normally, in most of final versions, there are some parts of demos. For example, the inicial tone of sonar in Echoes is from the demo of the song. In fact, they can't be able to replicate the exact sound in the studio and let the demo version of that tone in the final version. It's the same with this song.
***** You are absolutely right about the "ping" in "Echoes". They got it in one studio, but they couldn't recreate it in the studio where they needed to do the full recording. The first studio didn't offer enough tracks. I don't think that's as well known as, say, the troubles they had recording "Shine On ..." Kudos, you obviously know a lot about PF's recordings. Everything I initially said is still true, though. In terms of the analog-tape era, a demo is a completely separate recording. This recording here is not, at all, "100% different from the final studio version"; that isn't even close to true, and I assume you meant it casually. The intro is absolutely the same (that bass couldn't possibly be recreated so precisely with the same tone, vibrato, timing, slides, etc.), missing only Gilmour's volume-pedal-plus-delay guitar swells. That right there disqualifies it from being a "demo". Gilmour's bass, Rick's organ, and Roger's rhythm guitar all made it onto the final version, in better sound quality. More stuff was added or replaced later. I'd stake my reputation on this entire recording being recorded to the same click track, and while more drums were added later, most of what's here is on the final version. To summarize, the original source of this recording is the same actual, physical reel of tape that eventually had the final version on it. It would have to be a literal-100% different take from beginning to end to be a demo. I'm not insulting anyone who says otherwise, just standing my ground, 'cause I'm completely confident in this. But again, it's clear you know a lot about Pink Floyd and I'm not saying you have a bad ear or anything. _Animals_ is my favorite PF album, so I've listened to it hundreds of times, plus studying the _Guitar World_ transcription (seven guitar tracks in the final version!) In the modern-day digital era, of course, things are different. You can record a demo and still use elements of it the final version easily. Gilmour has stated that both _Momentary_ and _Division_ contain bits that came from his original demos ("Signs of Life" going back to 1978, and "Sorrow" is essentially the demo with overdubs on it), and of course, _Endless River_ is built upon nothing but well-recorded "demos". The line is now blurred, and that's a good thing, because it allows them to capture their best takes on record instead of blowing them in a rehearsal.
This is absolutely excellent, for some reason it seems to me to be a 'distant' version of Pigs. The solo at the end is on par with the official - but quite different.
Y el caso es que en un principio ésta, Sheep y Dogs (con los nombres que tenían de antes) hipotéticamente iban para el disco de Wish you were here... ya las tenían prácticamente terminadas hasta que Roger decidió cambiar de idea.
@@thewanderer2847 Fake meaning what? Looks real to me. No matter, I like it too. Saw half a concert in May 75 but still think this was their best stuff.
Highly likely that this is a quadraphonic mix with a couple of the channels turn down. That's why you're not hearing certain distinct guitar solos you remember from the release version
@@85geoffm1. Gilmour is not a bass player, he is a guitarist who can play bass. 2. It's an over-the-top idea that I play a lot of lines on the albums, fake crap. 3. In the demos Waters plays the bass. You can play this on a fretted bass perfectly.
Thanks for these they're excellent. This ones much the same as the original album but guitar solo at the end is quite different. Pink Floyd really are a shameful bunch of ungrateful tossers.... 37 years! Why don't they give us what we want instead of re-release after bollocksing re-release?
They are not Pink Floyd. That's why I haven't paid them a penny since '77. Ever since then they've touted the name but Pink Floyd ended with this album.
I generally agree that Pink Floyd have asked their fans to re-purchase albums they already own, _WAY too many times_ already. The _real_ problem is that millions of fans are obeying their every whim! If everybody had *stopped* buying new copies of _Dark Side_ thru _The Wall_ after the "definitive" editions in the "Shine On" box set, Pink Floyd (embodied in David Gilmour) would not look so fat and greedy now. The contents -- and the very concept -- of _The Division Bell_ box set *disgusts* me. Never mind that it's their very-worst album in all of PF history -- it also has NO NEW MATERIAL! Instead, they're scraping the bottom of the barrell from those sessions and making a "new Pink Floyd album" from it (_The Endless River_ -- boy, does Gilmour overrate "High Hopes" or what?). Imagine: _Rick Wright compositions_ that _weren't good enough for their worst album_ in the first place. Whatever happened to Gilmour's favorite saying? *"Nobody thought those songs were good enough then, what makes them so good now?"* That's right -- this is Gilmour's own _Final Cut_ -- courtesy of Rick Wright not being alive to object! Gilmour is THE BIGGEST HYPOCRITE IN CLASSIC-ROCK HISTORY!
***** And how many times have _you_ re-purchased _The Dark Side of the Moon_, my dear chap? Has it ever occurred to you that maybe there isn't any substantial difference between "surround sound", "5.1", Blu-Ray audio, Quad mix, etc? Are you SURE you hear any real difference? Ever get the feeling you're being _had?_
Doupyourflies You have a point in saying Pink Floyd ended with _Animals_. It is certainly my favorite. _The Wall_ found PF using an outside producer (Bob Ezrin, who claims he "re-wrote the album" overnight) for the first time since they kicked Norman Smith to the curb. It's the first PF album for which Roger Waters wrote a complete home demo without band input. For the first time we know of, it features a session drummer (Jeff Porcaro) on "Mother" because Mason couldn't handle the 5/8-4/4-9/8-12/8 time changes (even though he did fine with Syd Barrett's rhythmically-erratic material on _Piper_). Rick Wright didn't necessarily play any particular keyboards before he was fired. The album is more of a Roger Waters/Bob Ezrin/David Gilmour collaboration. I'm reluctant to say any collaboration between Waters & Gilmour isn't Pink Floyd, but you have a point.
I like this version better without the cowbell. A little cowbell on the percussion is o.k. sometimes but its a bit to much on the other version. Ever see the snl skit with will ferell as a band member of blue oyster cult playing don't fear the reaper,more cowbell ?
I wonder when was the first time the cowbell was included in a song,and how or why someone thought to use it for percussion . I do wish I would have seen pink Floyd and led zeppelin when I had the chance to do it. If given the opportunity to see an artist you enjoy , jump on it. The very first concert my daughter saw was creed when they just became popular. Fuel was one of the opening bands. I enjoyed watching her react to cultural concert shock as much as enjoyed the music.
After hearing "Raving and Drooling" and "Gotta be Crazy", it makes you wonder if other Animals tracks have as much history to them. Especially "Gotta Be", there's more than a few distinct versions of that that are drastically different from the album. This is very similar to the album track, so much so that it's a little disapointing..
Ooo I like that one, my personal favorite is the version from oakland in 1977. Gilmours backing vocals are excellent th-cam.com/video/e5wFmAwpUnw/w-d-xo.html
There are two demos of "One Of These Days" out there, but that's all. Though if you want an alternate 'Echoes', they did a great version for the BBC that sounds damn near like an alternate studio take.
If you didn't already know, they performed "Atom Heart Mother Suite" by themselves before there was any orchestral arrangement, and considering how many of Ron Geesin's melodies aren't there, it's still pretty good listening if you like early Floyd. The bootleg I heard was passionate, with Nick's loose but dynamic drumming. I'm a big fan of Nick's early-era drumming! Dave and Rick do some eerie vocals in what would become the first choir section.
Ben Culture That's true, there is an excellent version of "The Amazing Pudding"/AHM live in... Paris, I think? Not to mention, "Rain In The Country" (from the unreleased 'Zabriskie Point' soundtrack LP) became AHM's "Funky Dung" section.
idk why gilmour dont play animals (may for the symbolic story we all know about roger and the band). if he played the bass here and also in sheep, what a basslines and solos, arent them floydians?. and according to roger, gilmour (im supousing) was excited with dogs and sheep, cause he wanted to include them in the next álbum of dsotm.
this is almost identical to the album version. it sounds like there was just a paring back on the keyboards, cowbell, no talkbox and maybe just an alternate version of waters vocals used. methinks this was released as "rare", but it's not an actual "demo" per se. just a stripped down version of the album version. in a nutshell: FAKE
But the body is his from a different photo , right? What's the point of that lol. Maybe the trickery is a fan-made tribute to the Floyd aesthetic, which includes subtle illusions, versimilitude, hidden secrets, and other types of magic and sorcery
KILLER115X935 stop lying you corporate pig. I bet you are paid by the pop star media company that is squashing the poetic music industry now. Shame on you. Pig

So true
Animals is their best album hands down
I don't want to but I have to agree. Dark side is the flagship but animals live tours is something extra😊
I agree animals is the best album
I've never been able to just pick one favorite record of theirs, my top three is no specific order would be Animals, Meddle, and Saucerful of Secrets
I play guitar and piano and have learned how to play most of Dark Side of the Moon , parts of Medal,the Wall, and can assure you that this is Floyd's weakest album with no complex guitar parts and missing the most important musician of the band-Richard Wright.

Thank Ringo for the cowbell in rock. The big three original Beatles cowbell songs: Hard Day's Night, You Can't Do That, I Call Your name, all 1964.
One of the most drastic uses of cowbell has got to be 'You Fool No One' by Deep Purple...
After hearing "Raving and Drooling" and "Gotta be Crazy", it makes you wonder if other Animals tracks have as much history to them. Especially "Gotta Be", there's more than a few distinct versions of that that are drastically different from the album. This is very similar to the album track, so much so that it's a little disapointing..
best version is Boston 77.
Yup
Ooooh, I need to hear that.
Ooo I like that one, my personal favorite is the version from oakland in 1977. Gilmours backing vocals are excellent

Paris 22nd Feb 1977. As well as the 1st May 1977 version in the US.
Cleveland 1977 is an awesome version 🐷🐷🐷
better than the official track
Not A Demo version, nor is this Rare. Nor is anyone in Floyd underrated.
I don't know if demos of AHM or Meddle exist, anybody knows?
There are two demos of "One Of These Days" out there, but that's all. Though if you want an alternate 'Echoes', they did a great version for the BBC that sounds damn near like an alternate studio take.
If you didn't already know, they performed "Atom Heart Mother Suite" by themselves before there was any orchestral arrangement, and considering how many of Ron Geesin's melodies aren't there, it's still pretty good listening if you like early Floyd. The bootleg I heard was passionate, with Nick's loose but dynamic drumming. I'm a big fan of Nick's early-era drumming! Dave and Rick do some eerie vocals in what would become the first choir section.

That's true, there is an excellent version of "The Amazing Pudding"/AHM live in... Paris, I think? Not to mention, "Rain In The Country" (from the unreleased 'Zabriskie Point' soundtrack LP) became AHM's "Funky Dung" section.
+rising1984 There is an early rundown of "Echoes" and the original studio recording of "AHM" from 1969 coming out on the box set.
More cow bell
+Tubedeez123 lol seriously, I always think that when this song comes on
cow bells the bomb in this song
the drum is more loud, I like it
Nick wants a remix of _Animals_ with his drums crisper, and listening to this I can't blame him.
everything sounds pretty similar but the drum part is very strange and has random cymbal crashes
Hey you perception, HAHA!!! Charade you are!
I dint like the way gilmours solo was mellowed in this one.
I think this was the album the beachboys were trying to make with pet sounds when they wanted animal sounds lol, English version of pet sounds
I know what you mean but really Sgt Peppers is the English version.
VERSION WITHOUT TALK BOX OF DAVID
Too bad the alternate guitar solo at the end is so low in the mix. Still cool to hear, though.
You can hear parts of this guitar solo in the final version. This version is much, much quieter. This version is effective in it's own way.
This is a prototype!!!!
Muito top.
idk why gilmour dont play animals (may for the symbolic story we all know about roger and the band). if he played the bass here and also in sheep, what a basslines and solos, arent them floydians?. and according to roger, gilmour (im supousing) was excited with dogs and sheep, cause he wanted to include them in the next álbum of dsotm.
Farfisa or Hammond C3???
Hammond
Bad Game Tnx
Who play bass? Is Gilmour too?
Charade dat is.
my favorite picture of Pink floyd. what year was that photo?
the one at the beginning
timtim 8513 1976
All I can hear is bass.
I will have to say that I iiiiiiiii love it (love ). 😀:-):-):-):-):-):-):-)
this is almost identical to the album version. it sounds like there was just a paring back on the keyboards, cowbell, no talkbox and maybe just an alternate version of waters vocals used. methinks this was released as "rare", but it's not an actual "demo" per se. just a stripped down version of the album version. in a nutshell: FAKE
nathan israel Not fake. This is real, these are called Extraction Tapes like Have A Cigar's demo was.
a little off tempo, but awesome.
Anyone here listen to obscured by clouds? I ducking love it but no one talks about it:(
Ikr. It's a masterpiece between the masterpieces dsotm and meddle
that gilmour head is photoshopped on.
But the body is his from a different photo , right? What's the point of that lol. Maybe the trickery is a fan-made tribute to the Floyd aesthetic, which includes subtle illusions, versimilitude, hidden secrets, and other types of magic and sorcery
It's a drawing...
Dave's head looks a bit off center doesn't it. Observant of you. I just started at it thinking how old he looks now
I don't think that is the case. I believe this is a photo or drawing from the inside cover of Ummagumma.
@@chucktouchton398
I wanna see the coloring book pictures!
there isn't original psychodelic solo, so it's a big NO to this version....
porque todos escriben en inglés? puñetas
Porque eles são de países que falam inglês.
+Marcelo Maia Boa mano. Kkkkkkkl
Lol que paso
Охуенно
This version seems to lack the energy and drive of the released version. But then, Animals is my least favourite Floyd album of the '70s.
Fake
how?
'-' ok... now you can return taking your pills. Bye.
KILLER115X935 stop lying you corporate pig. I bet you are paid by the pop star media company that is squashing the poetic music industry now. Shame on you. Pig
Shame on you. Depression and mental health is not something to be joked about.
Norbit CleaverHook Yes it is
