Pigs & Sheep

To mark today’s re-issue of Pink Floyd’s catalog (apparently following a complex legal argument over distribution rights), EMI Music reconstructed the iconic cover of the band’s 1977 “Animals”album with an inflatable pig floating over Battersea Power Station…

Personally, I think it would have been far more germane to have it floating over the City of London, perhaps counterpoised against the “Gherkin”… No time for that Photoshopping unfortunately; but more fun nonetheless… here’s “Sheep” wickedly set to a montage of clips from various dystopian sci-fi movies…

The transcript starting at 6:30 in is most notably excellent.
