COLONEL LES CLAYPOOL'S FEARLESS FLYING FROG BRIGADE / Live Set 2 [2001]


The end of the first set is like a cliffhanger as we hear Les Claypool announce "we'll be back in 20 minutes with more Pink Floyd than any human being should ever withstand".
What we have here is an astonishingly faithful and brilliant complete cover performance of Pink Floyd's under-appreciated Animals album. I mean seriously, folks, who better to recreate the dark, funky and bitter sounds of Floyd's 1997 classic than Les Claypool. The Frog Brigade boys completely outdo themselves with precision and heart-filled dedication to it's source material. Bravo.
