"Animals" is too often overlooked. I love it, especially Dogs.

At the back of my mind, when we bought our current home, I knew it won out over all other possibilities because we have a view of a power plant similar to Battersea from our front yard.

No flying pigs, though. I keep looking.

Agree completely with you on Animals, also my favorite Floyd album (guess that last word shows my age). I bet Roger considers us right-wing nuts to be the Dogs (merciless greedy capitalists) rather than the Pigs (lying, sanctimonious right-wing politicians) or Sheep (everyone else). At least we can agree on the sheep :-)

Folks, this is nothing new for him. I love his music, but his politics have always been well beyond left wing. Sadly, that's true of most of the rock bands I grew up loving - the Clash, Springsteen, etc. All full blown socialists.

The one exception? Rush - true Ayn Rand libertarians (listen to 2112 for a great Randian piece).

Animals is my favorite Floyd album. The Wall is great but full of pretentious psycho-babble and liberal crap.

Sheep and pigs and dogs...kick ass.
