Comments:

From the condition of the vinyl to the clarity and
fullness of sound, this roio is a must for serious
collectors of Pink Floyd's 1977 Animals Tour. While
it's an incomplete show (90% of Sheep is missing and
there are no encores), it's arguably the best sounding
source from this specific date. With all the totally
unknown gen source stuff in circulation, here's a SHN
of the real deal.

Roger does not "number" this show during Pigs (3do).
