Even for me, an old hippie chick (70) who has been mainlining Gilmore since I first heard Echoes while tripping at age 21. Wonderful introduction to the band. Annie TN/USA
@@blondelebanese9922 I have pubic hair older then some of these youngsters on here. I guess you and I are the "senior citizens" in the group @blonde lebanese. You're in 1 corner mainlining Gilmour, I'm in the other with "Obscured By Clouds" under my tongue. Long live Pink Floyd.
Me! I love Sheep far more than Pigs, although both are masterpieces. That entire album is absolutely mind blowing, for my tastes their best after Dark Side
About half of "The Wall" is good. But that's the point where Roger's ego took over and they started going downhill. The next album, "The Final Cut", with no Rick Wright but an even bigger ego on Roger, was their absolute worst.
this was 44 years ago... if you're blown away by it today you can imagine how it was back then... Iconic album. The sheep (the common man) prayed upon by the dogs and pigs. Great reaction.
👍 Definitely I remember hearing them in 67 I was hooked. Have nearly everything they ever recorded. Some on all three formats. That being LPS, 8-tracks, and cassettes.
Shoulda seen it live - I was blessed to follow some of the tour and saw it 9 times, from Portland to Montreal including 4 nights in Madison Square Gardens
The music from Pink Floyd, it was in a class of it's own. Take this album, it has a quality which is rare even for this band in that it's absolutely timeless and will be appreciated by music lovers for ever.
David Gilmour plays the bass on this track, He plays the bass on every song on the Animals album except for Dogs. His bass playing is exceptional, He actually plays bass on a ton of Pink Floyd tracks most people just don't realize. He plays bass on a good portion of The Wall as well.
I've heard other bass players state that it is not a very difficult song too play. I don't know and I don't care. The tone, the sound, the riffs and the groove are 1 of my all-time favorite bass parts from any song from any band. Loved it when it first "knocked me out", March of 1977, when my turntables needle first came in contact with "Animals" vinyl.
@@TheCornishCockney I've always loved Rogers bass playing. I've always considered him an underrated player. Is that even possible calling him underrated?
@@mrsouthjersey4956 I wouldn't consider Waters underrated, He's a fantastic bass player and his style suits Floyd very well but Gilmour is a virtuoso and could play circles around Waters on the bass which Roger admitted is true and it's also the reason Gilmour records the bass on certain Floyd songs. Regardless both are super talented, Influential musicians.
I was young. With long haired friends listening to PF, GrandFunk, Led Zeppelin, Focus, Deep Purple, etc, etc,. We smoked a joint. Together we stepped in a spaceship and were happy.......that peaceful time ....and best music ever......
We've had Dogs (fabulous), Pigs (wonderful) and now Sheep. Another great song from Pink Floyd, I absolutely love it and will listen to a few times as I did the others. Animals is amazing and really shows why Pink Floyd are in a class of their own. In my opinion no other band past, present or future can ever match them for their creativity, musical expression and experimentation, especially when you think they had none of the technology we have today. They are a one-off, but thankfully we do have all their great music to enjoy over and over again. Another great reaction, guys, really enjoyed it, many thanks.
I believe that experimentation is what got them to the creative point that took them to the heights it did. They could have easily given up but the God's did not let them.
I was waiting for "Sheep", thanks!!! Please, react to "Any color your like" + "Brain Damage" + "Eclipse" from The Dark Side of the Moon. Greetings from Argentina.
The soft keyboards you hear in the beginning is a Rhodes Piano, electric, and was very popular in a lot of 70's music. For the times it was a new sound. You picked right up on it
@@iri6205 Yes, David played the bass on "Sheep". Actually, I believe Dogs and some of Pigs is only time Roger played the bass on the album. There is a wealth of information online talking about this fact.
Yes!!!!! Shhhhhheeeeeppppp. Animals is my favourite Pink Album. Sheep are my favourite Animals. Over 30 years later and still brings tears to my eyes 😁
I like how one is "jump off the cliff into the water" and the other is like "I need a forensic analysis of the water first." Both seemed to enjoy it, safely.
The final melody reminds me of a fantastic circus that moves away with all its people, animals and equipment, and leaves all the spectators who watch them move away speechless.
The intro of Sheep is just so chilling to me. And that is just the beginning of a bad, bad dream. But in the end the meek and obediant wake up and reclaim their ground. The contrasting stories in the three main songs create such a strong concept. Animals is where it all comes together. And again, your reaction is so contagious ❤ Notice how stealthy the bass enters the mix....
This song means more today than it ever has in the past I just don't have to have much imagination to know what I'm talkin about. The line couldn't be any more precise. "You better stay home and do as you're told." There's a chord progression where everything shifts into a very dark tone just as they start reciting Psalms 23. It's very creepy.
You know the great feeling of anticipation when you get a really cool gift for someone you know is really going to enjoy the gift, and the extremely good feeling you get when said person opens that gift up with the joy you knew they were going to have? One word: DUDES
That verse at the end hits me every time. "you better stay home and do as you're told, get out of the road if you wanna grow old". The old dogs are dead, but among the sheep someone greed, crafty and aggressive wants to take control and gain power over the mass, they become the new dogs, and the circle starts again.
I quote that line often in PF lyrics (or particularly Roger) sadly I didn't see Floyd as I was far too young but friends just gave me their albums in school and tbh they're unique.. this song is so prophetic.
Speaking of Pink Floyd and their sounds, there's something they do that no other band does. In most concerts as the audience is filing in there's a selection of music playing. Not so with Pink Floyd. As you're entering the arena to take your seats you notice sounds coming from all corners of the arena/stadium. Birds chirping. A flock of geese flying by. A helicopter landing. A plane passing overhead. So realistic. I'm pretty sure at Soldier Field in Chicago there was the sound of a lawn mower at one point that seemed to travel from the front end of the stadium to the other end... so realistic you had to look down on the field to see if someone was actually mowing the lawn!! Then an imaginary motorcycle seem to take the journey back in the other direction. All this I suspect to let the fans know they will not be short changed on the sounds that accompany much of their music. And having been to a couple of their shows.. (Pulse and Delicate Sound of Thunder tours), we certainly were not. Every sound on the albums is judiciously reproduced in the arena at just the right moment it appears in the songs, and it comes at you from all sides. I remember that creepy laughter coming from behind me in the stands as they sang "Brain Damaged" on stage. You couldn't help but turn around to see where it was coming from LOL. This it's something that cannot be fully appreciated in watching these clips, you just had to be there. A full awesome three dimensional sonic experience. These boys spared no expense in giving the audience what they came for.
I think that Animals didn't get the same initial traction because of the length of the songs on the album. Not because people didn't want to hear a long song but because the radio stations didn't play the longer tunes and they couldn't edit the songs down, without ruining them. With DSOFTM and WYWH, there were songs that were played on the radio since those particular songs could fit into the radio song length format. And then The Wall came out about 2 years after Animals and again, there were a few songs from The Wall that were played on the radio as well. So, of course, more people had access to those albums without going out and purchasing them. That is the only thing I can think of as to why there wasn't the same INITIAL reaction to Animals. Now, it is widely considered one of the best works of PF.
I feel like that's exactly why Animals isn't as well known as the other albums from the 70s. Amazing songs, but only a very small percentage of stations were willing to play the songs. The ones that did only did it the in the middle of the night.
Yes Patrick that sound is from DOGS @ 4:50👍 Your reactions are amazing, honest.👌 We all hear it for the first time again 🤲 I'm watching this in a massive lightning storm right now.🙏
The holy trinity of Pink Floyd albums are Dark Side of the Moon, Wish you were here and Animals. Perhaps the three best consecutive albums ever released.
@Bookhouse Boy I'd like to add Genesis with Foxtrot, Selling England and The Lamb albums. All three superb. I'd like to mention Cat Stevens with Tea for the Tillerman, Teaser and the Firecat and Catch Bull at Four, his 4th, 5th and 6th albums, each one full of beautiful songs.
Pink Floyd is truly a awesome one of a kind band, That said I have a another great band album run.. How is this, ? -The Who with Tommy, Live at Leeds, Whos Next, Quadrophenia./ I know that's 4 albums but there all great and I have all 7 on Vinyl from when I bought them new long ago, there worn but playable. Rock On !!
Hi Guys Glad to see a younger generation enjoying Floyd. Can you imagine what it was like in 1977 when this came out i was 16 years old at technical college and was just getting over being affected by Darkside of the moon in 1973 enjoy guys.
I'm 54 and back in the early 80's to 1990 me and close friends, usually a small group, 4-10 people would do acid (purple and orange microdots were the best, never was a fan of the blotter acid) or mushrooms (the really good blue and whites from the west coast). We did this at cottage parties, small music festivals and house parties etc. This was not a daily or even weekly thing but in 8 or so years we did a lot. I still nibble on shrooms once in a while. Once in a blue moon someone would need to be calmed down for awhile (mostly the less experienced, not for violence but cause they were freakin.) I personally never had a bad time on acid or mushrooms and I honestly think they have indeed enlightened my creative side. Listening to music like Floyd Zep Sabbath Rush Queen blah blah blah was always what it was all about. And for those 6-12 hours the music made it even more magical. Read Grateful Dead's bassist Phil Lesh's biography titled "Searching For the Sound". I thought the acid in the 80's was good, the people back then on the scene were like lsd test guinea pigs. LOL Cheers from canada.
👍 here’s some food for thought DSOTM made it back into the charts in 2020 at #193 giving the album an impressive 950 weeks tally in the top 200.... that’s over 18 years of the Albums life 🤓
Metallica Live in Moscow 1991 (USSR) - Enter Sandman (or any song from the concert). The biggest audience you will ever see. Simply an amazing slice of history.
i love how both Dogs and Sheep play around with each other in terms of sound (for example the echo’s of “stone, stone, stone”) while Pigs sounds completely alien. It’s very fitting for what the album represents.
Thank you guys this whole album is hands down the best reaction I have ever seen, you guys really feel the music the same way I do, thank you for sharing this journey it is a journey every person on this planet should take!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Good ear with the “Stone” echo coming back from Dogs. Cool notes: this is the only song that mentioned the other animals. And the Dogs barking turn into synthesizers in Dogs as well. This is my favorite Floyd album for so many reasons but there are very close second place runner-ups!
I concur, wholeheartedly, that this is perhaps their greatest album from the moment the needle hits the vinyl until you transition out of their world to the constant bumping of the needle hitting the paper at the epicenter... The only other Pink Floyd album to do that to me without the use of marijuana is "The Final Cut" (the finale of Act 2 of the Pink Floyd Arc). I always felt when Roger was exploring his emotions he tended to come off as a tad "whiny". He finally poured his heart out and his complete inner angst out on this album and even though he and Gilmour were going at each other like rutting rams, they complimented each other perfectly when performing... Again, a pure joy watching you two releasing yourselves to the life-force that is PINK FLOYD!!!
This album brings back the most memories & nostalgia. Life with Pink Floyd to me was always driving around or listening to albums on component stereos. Good times.
"Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream..... I've been used ... The dogs are dead .. You better stay home and do what you're told .. !!" Brilliant - prophetic?? - lyrics from my favorite song on Pink Floyd - Animals. Unsheepishly - Sheep!
It's amazing to see that this has the EXACT same effect on a couple young men 2 generations after this was written as it did on me when I heard it fresh. We all knew this was an amazing work. Just fantastic.
I went on a trip about a month ago, I listened to all Pink Floyd's albums (I had only heard Dark Side of the Moon, The Wall and a like half of Wish You Were Here), and ooh boy I missed so much good shit, they blew me away completely... what a band, man. Favorite album is Animals and a close second is Wish You were Here, then Dark Side of the Moon (before I listened to all albums, I considered this one of the best albums of all time, if not the best). Favorite song gotta be Shine on You Crazy Diamond pts 1-5, that song is just perfection in my ears.
" Thank You(Falleme be Mice elf Agin)" - " Sly and Family Stone" circa 70! The funkiest song ever written. Then their slowed down, stretched out even nastier version " Thank You For Talking to Me Africa" circa 71!! The Bro's will be blown away!!
They did "You gotta be crazy" (later renamed to "Dogs"), this one (initially called "Raving and Drooling") and Shine on you crazy diamond during the single session in 1974. It was a good day for the mankind
There are a number of guitarists, bassists, keyboardists and drummers who are technically (far) better that Gilmour, Waters, Wright or Mason. And yet, all those "shredders" could neer achieve this: that Pink Floyd's music touches your soul and your sub-conscious.
Pink Floyd were genius, I have been in love with David Gilmore since I was 14 & still am. I had them all over my bedroom walls. Gos we’re we so blessed to grow up with this ❤
Great reaction finishing off an amazing album.... I highly recommend a David Gilmore solo track called "I can't Breathe Anymore" - The guitar work at the end of that track is typically wonderful mindblowing Gilmore, playing lead overdubbed on top of a brilliant Gilmore riff. You will be wanting to play that more than 10 times. Lol
I always listen to Floyd with my eyes closed. But I cannot Take My Eyes Off You guys. It's joy to see your pleasure. Feel almost exactly the same way you guys do. Great freaking job!
The intro is Richard Wright on the iconic Rhodes piano. The bass is exclusively David Gilmour on the studio album version of this track. Roger Waters is on vocals.
Note for note and song for song, their best album musically. Then throw in Water’s cutting and biting lyrics and you’ve got a masterpiece. Second only to DSOTM, in my humble opinion, of all the albums ever produced. Saw them do DSOTM live in ‘73 and Animals live in ‘77 both in Cincinnati.
No doubt they were the masters of innovation and experimentation, capturing the hearts of their followers through their music. Any controversial issues are conveyed this way. Young people of today...yes you!... are smitten, and surely others will follow in the future. Is life so different today as it was in 1977...
"You better watch out, There may be dogs about."
Dark Side of the Moon is the greatest album of all time, but Animals is Pink Floyd's best album
I agree 💯
Even for me, an old hippie chick (70) who has been mainlining Gilmore since I first heard Echoes while tripping at age 21. Wonderful introduction to the band.

Wish You Were Here #1 Animals #2 are my favourite Albums.

Long live Pink Floyd.
You will never be "normal" again after listening to Pink Floyd!
This song is very apt now as it was then" you better stay home and do as your told!"
I love how much you guys love Pink Floyd! It proves how they've stood the test of time and will continue to do so. They please the generations!
I am 51 and consider myself young to be a Pink Floyd fan! And yes, to see younger folk into them just shows how timeless they are!
@@anitawilson7407 i am 14 😼
Haha who had been waiting for this since they done Pigs? The Wall next lads!

That's a Rhodes electric piano at the beginning. This song is just... just... I have no words.
🤜🏼⚡️🤛🏼
To sound, maybe, a little crass, the entire album is one orgasm (translated into a musical format) after another...
you said it perfectly
Yep, the Rhodes is still a sound for today.
I know it’s a Rhodes but Do you think it’s run through a Leslie? There’s definitely some kind of tremolo sound
this was 44 years ago... if you're blown away by it today you can imagine how it was back then... Iconic album. The sheep (the common man) prayed upon by the dogs and pigs. Great reaction.
👍 Definitely

In order of GREATNESS,,

Close, but no cigar! 😉 For me,
1 DSOTM
2 WYWH

I have to say, the sheep version of "The Lord is my Shepherd" is just awesome!
I think that Animals didn't get the same initial traction because of the length of the songs on the album. Not because people didn't want to hear a long song but because the radio stations didn't play the longer tunes and they couldn't edit the songs down, without ruining them.

Didn't really care for The Wall...not really sure why but hearing some of those songs overplayed on the radio probably had a lot to do with it
I feel like that's exactly why Animals isn't as well known as the other albums from the 70s. Amazing songs, but only a very small percentage of stations were willing to play the songs. The ones that did only did it the in the middle of the night.

@@jeffcampbell668 😎👍 Micro purple and and double blue = 10-16 hours .. i remember Angel Dust too .. good day to you from Québec 😎👍
now time to begin “The Wall”
Best line from the reaction, "They are blowing me all the time!" Awesome review! Keep it up.
The wall next but do a few at a time or as many as you can in one setting . That shit will melt your soul only to be reborn
One complete side at a time!
👍 here’s some food for thought DSOTM made it back into the charts in 2020 at #193 giving the album an impressive 950 weeks tally in the top 200.... that’s over 18 years of the Albums life 🤓
I'm glad you recognized to the voice to synth. I have always loved how they did that. It's perfectly on key.
The best album of PINK FLOYD .
Metallica Live in Moscow 1991 (USSR) - Enter Sandman (or any song from the concert). The biggest audience you will ever see. Simply an amazing slice of history.
i love how both Dogs and Sheep play around with each other in terms of sound (for example the echo’s of “stone, stone, stone”) while Pigs sounds completely alien. It’s very fitting for what the album represents.
I love the Animals album it's my favorite Pink Floyd. Glad to see you reacting to the tracks.
Thank you guys this whole album is hands down the best reaction I have ever seen, you guys really feel the music the same way I do, thank you for sharing this journey it is a journey every person on this planet should take!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
This particular album is phenomenal 👏
The lyrics to this song are just insane... Especially the speaking through the synth near the end..
Wow I am so glad you guys loved the vocal-into-synthesizer transitions. Artfully done they are. Is good you notice such things.
Nobody can top Pink Floyd when it comes to creating genius bars and music. I repeat, NOBODY can compare!
Good ear with the “Stone” echo coming back from Dogs. Cool notes: this is the only song that mentioned the other animals. And the Dogs barking turn into synthesizers in Dogs as well. This is my favorite Floyd album for so many reasons but there are very close second place runner-ups!
I concur, wholeheartedly, that this is perhaps their greatest album from the moment the needle hits the vinyl until you transition out of their world to the constant bumping of the needle hitting the paper at the epicenter...
The only other Pink Floyd album to do that to me without the use of marijuana is "The Final Cut" (the finale of Act 2 of the Pink Floyd Arc). I always felt when Roger was exploring his emotions he tended to come off as a tad "whiny". He finally poured his heart out and his complete inner angst out on this album and even though he and Gilmour were going at each other like rutting rams, they complimented each other perfectly when performing... Again, a pure joy watching you two releasing yourselves to the life-force that is PINK FLOYD!!!
This album brings back the most memories & nostalgia. Life with Pink Floyd to me was always driving around or listening to albums on component stereos. Good times.
"Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream..... I've been used ... The dogs are dead .. You better stay home and do what you're told .. !!" Brilliant - prophetic?? - lyrics from my favorite song on Pink Floyd - Animals. Unsheepishly - Sheep!
The like button isn't enough, I want a LOVE button. For you guys and the music.
It's amazing to see that this has the EXACT same effect on a couple young men 2 generations after this was written as it did on me when I heard it fresh.
We all knew this was an amazing work. Just fantastic.
Richard Wright playing a Rhodes electric piano (actual hammers hit metal tynes when you strike the notes) at the beginning...
Great reaction you two had me in Hysterics
It IS the sound from "Dogs."
Georgia dudes! I'm going to watching this many times.
I went on a trip about a month ago, I listened to all Pink Floyd's albums (I had only heard Dark Side of the Moon, The Wall and a like half of Wish You Were Here), and ooh boy I missed so much good shit, they blew me away completely... what a band, man.
Favorite album is Animals and a close second is Wish You were Here, then Dark Side of the Moon (before I listened to all albums, I considered this one of the best albums of all time, if not the best).
Favorite song gotta be Shine on You Crazy Diamond pts 1-5, that song is just perfection in my ears.
" Thank You(Falleme be Mice elf Agin)" - " Sly and Family Stone" circa 70!
The funkiest song ever written.
Then their slowed down, stretched out even nastier version
" Thank You For Talking to Me Africa"
circa 71!!
The Bro's will be blown away!!
Pink Floyd takes us to a journey between colour and sound. It‘s fantastic. I love them
They did "You gotta be crazy" (later renamed to "Dogs"), this one (initially called "Raving and Drooling") and Shine on you crazy diamond during the single session in 1974. It was a good day for the mankind
awesome album...totally undervalued!
I think is the top momment of this band.
Thanks,guys,for this amazing reaction! (like always)
"Just relax and enjoy this adventure"... 'nuff said!
Animal album in a nutshell:
Pink Floyd:I hate government
(20 min instrumentals)
There are a number of guitarists, bassists, keyboardists and drummers who are technically (far) better that Gilmour, Waters, Wright or Mason. And yet, all those "shredders" could neer achieve this: that Pink Floyd's music touches your soul and your sub-conscious.
Pink Floyd were the first to use portable synthesizers and each of them created music and put ideas together and created MASTERPIECES.
Trying to pick your fav Floyd album or fav song is like trying to pick your fav child.....Simply Impossible !
The terrific album and Sheep is my favourite song
Their tones have always led the way. They are unique.
Pink Floyd were genius, I have been in love with David Gilmore since I was 14 & still am.
I had them all over my bedroom walls.
Gos we’re we so blessed to grow up with this ❤
Great reaction finishing off an amazing album.... I highly recommend a David Gilmore solo track called "I can't Breathe Anymore" - The guitar work at the end of that track is typically wonderful mindblowing Gilmore, playing lead overdubbed on top of a brilliant Gilmore riff. You will be wanting to play that more than 10 times. Lol
I always listen to Floyd with my eyes closed. But I cannot Take My Eyes Off You guys. It's joy to see your pleasure. Feel almost exactly the same way you guys do. Great freaking job!
Terminal Frost by Pink Floyd - an amazing instrumental. Don't skip that one :D
Such an enjoyment to see youngsters react to Pink Floyd’s magic.
Your laughter at the end of the first verse... is so fitting!!! How I wish it were the effect of dogs in the original recording.
The sounds on this are unique to Floyd especially the middle instrumental section, incredible blend of sound
I was waiting for this one! To me, the best on the album. Great reaction!
Pink Floyd is the best band ever and your reactions also are amazing :D good luck guys!
The intro is Richard Wright on the iconic Rhodes piano. The bass is exclusively David Gilmour on the studio album version of this track. Roger Waters is on vocals.
Note for note and song for song, their best album musically. Then throw in Water’s cutting and biting lyrics and you’ve got a masterpiece. Second only to DSOTM, in my humble opinion, of all the albums ever produced. Saw them do DSOTM live in ‘73 and Animals live in ‘77 both in Cincinnati.
No doubt they were the masters of innovation and experimentation, capturing the hearts of their followers through their music. Any controversial issues are conveyed this way. Young people of today...yes you!... are smitten, and surely others will follow in the future. Is life so different today as it was in 1977...
Hey guys . I've listened to Pink Floyd since 1985 when I was 14 .This is by far the best album .
CLASS IS PERPETUAL!THIS IS GOOD FOR THE SOUL!
Great reaction :) Pink Floyd.......LEGENDARY!
Pink Floyd are the best of the best, they will never be topped. Their best album ever has to be Dark Side Of The Moon and it's still timeless.
