A little musical nightcap with Pink Floyd's 1977 classic, Animals. Had this ages but actually never noticed Peter Christopherson's name on the back - from his work with design group Hipgnosis 🖤

Andy's Music Reviews @andysmusicreviews.bsky.social · Aug 7

An absolute pleasure! Avi is such a great artist!
