G Rated Comments About the Relevance of Pink Floyd’s Animals Album:

It was a favorite album of mine, back then, for the music.

I had no idea how telling it was, at the time. But I get the gravity of it all, now … both, as a piece of art and also a statement about where we were headed as a society.

Wondering how long this thread can stay up. Hopefully, for a while …


General ground rules apply: please abide by Audiogon’s house rules of conduct, so we can enjoy it.

Please keep it G rated enough so we can hear some hilarious comments. Not that the situation is hilarious or anything about it at all.

So let’s be civil. And let this be an exercise in remaining light hearted.

I can still conjure up my days of youth when I listened to the music for the music and not the message. The tipping point for me when I started listening to the message in a song happened the day I was educated on ZZ Top’s pearl neckless.

Jeremiah was a bullfrog,

he was a good friend of mine,

I never understood a single word he said,

but I helped him drink his wine.

@grislybutter Well, I could imagine in one hand and crap in the other and see which one fills up first.
I don’t live in other countries; don’t know ‘em, can’t vouch for ‘em.
I live in this one.
I don’t think my ideas (or anyone’s) are invalidated by the existence of less desirable conditions elsewhere.
