Animals

  It wasn't a great, one of the most productive periods of our life I don't think. We used those two tracks, which went back to '74 and changed the names and doctored them around and stuff and stuck them on the album. I like them, I love that album. It's exciting and noisy and fun and it's got really good bits of effects and stuff on it but it's not one of our creative high points really.  

- David Gilmour, May 1992, Pink Floyd: The 25th Anniversary Special, Westwood One.

  I didn't really like this album much. I have to say I didn't fight very hard and to put my stuff on and I didn't have anything to put on. I played on it. I think I played really well but I didn't contribute to the writing on it and also I think Roger was kind of not letting me do that. I think it was the start of the whole ego thing in the band, Animals.  

– Rick Wright, November 1994, BBC Omnibus Pink Floyd Special 1994.

    The album made it to number 3 on the billboard charts in 1977 and went quadruple platinum. It was loosely based on George Orwell's Animal Farm.

Animals has 5 tracks and lasts a total of 41:46 minutes.
