    I was 22 years old, when this album was released in 1977. Living in a cheap little pay-by-the-week motel room in South Lake Tahoe. I got off work, bought the album as I walked home from work in the snow.....fired up a bowl & turned down the lights. I had a tiny artificial Christmas tree plugged in.....& sat there in the dark, but for the flashing colored lights......my headphones strapped on & just trippin' to the magic.

      I was BORN in 1977, and it took me until college to discover this album. But that’s the beauty of music, ya know? Music recorded before I even existed became a significant part of who I am. And it ain’t like shit has changed. The message of this album, the picture it paints of modern life, was every bit as resonant in the late 90s when I discovered it as it was in ‘77, and is every bit as resonant now in [checks date] 2021.

    For a “new” Pink Floyd listener, as this gentleman seems to be, is looking for inspiration from their enormous collection, what is a never ending comfort for me has been, Great Gig in the Sky. Every time I have had a surgical procedure, and there have been plenty, I listen to this song as I am being medicated for surgery. It always makes me think of Heaven in case things go wrong. Comfort while drifting of to sleep.

    I saw Pink Floyd during their Animals tour in 1977 at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal. It was fantastic! Us young Vermonters were down on the grass surrounded by French Canadians tripping hard. We all danced together all night as they spun the music around the stadium. So good. I'm so glad I was a teen in the 1970's in northern Vermont and so close to Montreal, one of the greatest cities in the world. Watching reaction videos has made me appreciate that time even more.

  • @CrustyCurmudgeon
    @CrustyCurmudgeon 4 роки тому +7

    I was 20 when this came out, and I was fortunate to see them on this tour in MSG. At the time (mid-70's), we were surrounded by so much good music, so much variety, such originality, and amazing musicianship. That was the rock era back then. And you took it for granted because the riches were so easy to be had. Only now, upon reflection back, do I realize we didn't know how good we had it. While certainly standouts, Pink Floyd was far from the only "huge" popular band of the time. That same summer I saw all of the following: Led Zeppelin, Eagles, ELP, Return to Forever, Dave Mason, Al Stewart, Kansas - all within 3-4 months. But as time goes on, the true genius works stand tall. And of all of them, I say that Floyd's catalogue will stand the test of time and , like Mozart, Bach, & Beethoven, will still be played 100's of years from now. Watching you get completely absorbed in this song proves their music is universal and timeless.

    Always loved the Animals album! Their two previous albums, (DSOTM, and WYWH), featured an extended band, smooth and relaxing sax solos, and Female backup singers, (which I DID LOVE), but Animals went back to the original band doing their own thing, and rocking it out! I do realize they had to have an extra guitarist, (Snowy White), to play this live. The bulk of this album was written and performed back before Wish You were Here. By the time this album was made, they changed the lyrics around, but had perfected the music! It was changed enough to fit into the “concept”! Many considered it harsh and bitter, and certainly much harsher than the smooth previous albums. I loved it, because it was the core band rocking out more than ever before!

    I've been a fan of Pink Floyd since the Dark Side of the Moon album in 1973. I saw them live in 1980 at the Nassau Coliseum In Uniondale NY performing The Wall. The most incredible, phenomenal, show I've ever seen! And that's what is was too, not only a concert, but a SHOW! They only performed a few shows of the Wall concert here in the states, 3 on the east coast and 3 on the west coast. It was quite an accomplishment being able to get tickets to any of those shows, especially since Pink Floyd consistently sold out ALL their concerts!
    I was in a Rock band back in those days, and Pink Floyd was the only bands we did NOT even try to cover,........why you ask? Too complicated and difficult to replicate most of their music.
    I don't know if you've seen any Comfortably Numb videos, but I'd like to recommend two different concert videos for you to watch, both epic concert in their own right. The first one is from the Pulse Concert in 1994, a tremendous solo and ending, It'll give you an idea of the kind of show PF use to put on. The second one is from the Live8 concert in 2005. In that concert the 4 original members of the band, (excluding Sid Barret who left the band in 1968), were reunited for the first time in 24 years!!
    Yeah they look older, but they sound just the same, unbelievable!

    D. Mont, you remind me of my 30 year old nephew that passed in a motorcycle accident three years ago. I'm caucasian, he was Puerto Rican but as much a son as my biological sons. He loved the old (good) music, all genres and I was his music mentor when it came to the rock classic bands. Pink Floyd was and is my favorite and I thought of him as I watched this song and a couple others with you. Thank you brother and peace out; you brought back some good memories of Pink Floyd and rock in general and some great memories of listening with and teaching my nephew, rest in peace.

      They paid her a pittance of a day rate, but later gave her something approaching appropriate compensation. . . And a writing credit.

    Their album "dark side of the moon holds the record for most weeks on the billboard top 200 albums, a total of over 950 weeks, the album cover is classed and been awarded the best cover of all time, this should be your first full album experience, followed by wish you were here, animals and the wall and the final cut for some emotional tunes, earlier records are brilliant but expect some psychodelic stuff with the really early stuff, the years after the final cut are brilliant too but this after the main lyricist left, but the music is insanely brilliant, the concert footage of the pulse album also needs to be watched, pink floyd pretty much invented the amazing lighting at concerts, and the pink floyd early footage of echoes live in pompeii is brilliant too

    I cannot choose a fav album of this band, but Animals is definitely up there! This is a concept album, look into the lyrics.. there is a story/facts being told throughout the whole album. This album is like reading a book, and was influenced by the book Animal Farm by George Orwell. (it is real relevant even today). The only downside to this album is that it is somewhat short, otherwise a 10/10 - Masterpiece! please check out more Pink Floyd AKA best Rock band in history, and have fun on your journey!

    For some great back-to-back tunes, try Welcome to the Machine / Have a Cigar (about the music industry).

    Pink Floyd Animals came out in the Spring of 1977 of my Senior year in high school. This album was playing everywhere in 1977 during the summer of playing frisbee in parks, partying, and just chilling. To this day i break it out every Spring for the last 40 + years.

    Even though ive heard them over and over , everytime feels like the first time for me. Cheers.

    I appreciate your first listen videos - you get it. Listen from beginning to end without pausing the tracks to comment. You sir, are aces in my book! Thanks for sharing, I love seeing Pink Floyd's legacy live through the younger generations (my daughter loves them, as well). Part of me feel the newer generations finding Pink Floyd for the first time appreciate the music more than mine did (I was 16 when this album came out) because so many of my peers were getting high in order to listen, to 'get in their head-space'. Like it was a requirement!
    Not me, I'm like you: the music IS the trip, and always will be.
    Thanks again, and rock on!

    Some other great Floyd songs that people might not suggest are The Gunner's Dream, The Final Cut, and Two Suns In the Sunset; all off the Final Cut album. Definitely worth a listen.

  • @DrMorb1us
    @DrMorb1us 4 роки тому +34

    You can think of Pink Floyd having three distinct phases to their albums, Pre Dark Side Of The Moon (1965-1972), the Dark Side of The Moon era (1973-1983) and the Gilmour years (1987-)
    1. Dark Side Of The Moon (1973)
    2. Wish You Were Here (1975)
    3. Animals (1977)
    4.The Wall (1979)
    5. The Division Bell (1994)
    6. Meddle (1971)
    There's a lot more, but these would be my top pick for a first-time listener.

    One of the few bands to ever reach their potential... Dark Side is arguably is the most perfect album ever recorded, but these guys were just the best for years and years after that, the Animals tour was the most expensive $ ever in its time!

    This song never fails to move me. Full of depth and darkness, a real scathing take on how this society chews up and spits out the person who tries to fulfil those expectations. And the comparison with what happens to a lot of dogs when they get old and sick is just so sad and fitting.

  • @cdolan13

    Yes, please listen to all the albums (from Dark Side Of The Moon on) because yes, they recorded them to be listened to from front to back - in their entirety. You will love each song even more, once you get why they are placed within the albums as they are.

    Also, "One of these days" from their Meddle album. Old school Pink Floyd.
    "Set the controls for the heart of the sun" from the Ummagumma album.
    And for a bit of fun, "Several species of small furry animals gathered in a cave and grooving with a Pict", also in Ummagumma

    if you appreciate them now, when you discover the themes of their albums and get the lyrics and listen through each album as a whole, you'll really see the genius and how it all still holds true over 40 years later. Dark Side, Animals, Wish you were here and the Wall. you'll also notice connecting lyrics on all these albums .

    If you want to take a deep look behind their music, watch Pink Floyd: Live at Pompei. It has live performances of their earlier work in an empty ruins of a coliseum. Between tracks, it has commentary and interviews where they share a bit of info about the band and in how they make their music. For any Floyd fan, its a must watch. Its the quintessential Pink Floyd experience. Find a dvd, or a site that streams it, but watch it in its entirety. Doesnt even need to be a reaction video. Watch it in your own time and get completely sucked in. The tracks Echoes Part 1 & 2 are some of the Floyd's best work.

      Dang! Renaissance? You surprised me with that one, but I agree 100%. Annie Haslam has the most remarkable voice ever heard in the rock world...I would LOVE to see D hear her voice for the first time. I'd recommend "Scheherazade" as well...gorgeous vocals. I watched them perform that live, opening for Stanley Clarke, in Detroit in the mid 70's. 99.999% of the crowd was there to see Stanley Clarke--she didn't get the reception she deserved.

    do 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond Parts I - V ' (without the video!) next, I guarantee you'll be pleased xD. It's probably my fav Pink Foyd track and also the starting track of the album 'Wish You Were Here'. If you want the 'full' PF experience you could then do the next four tracks on the same album subsequently. I think you'll enjoy the songs more if you keep them in the context of both the message of the album and it's sound/style.

Usually here in Australia, every new years eve music 500 count down, Dark Side Of The Moon generally takes out number one spot of all 500 songs.
