Pink Floyd - Raving & Drooling (early Sheep)- Music Rewind Flashback

Hear our discussion of Animals Here: https://bit.ly/PinkFloyd_Animals

"Raving and Drooling" (which later became "Sheep") was originally planned to be on the album following the 1974 tours, Wish You Were Here, but plans changed and they ended up in different forms on Animals.

Animals is the tenth studio album by the English rock band Pink Floyd, released on 21 January 1977. Animals is both a progressive rock album and a concept album, focusing on the social-political conditions of mid-1970s Britain, and was a change from the style of Pink Floyd's work. Tension within the band during production culminated in keyboardist Richard Wright being fired two years later. The album's cover shows an inflatable pig floating between two chimneys of the Battersea Power Station. Loosely based on George Orwell's political fable Animal Farm, the album's lyrics describe various classes in society as different kinds of animals: the predatory dogs, the despotic ruthless pigs, and the "mindless and unquestioning” herd of sheep.

This version of Raving & Drooling is from Live At Knebworth - 1975.
