The Animals - Before We Were So Rudely Interrupted

Review by Silvia Badriotto

Before We Were So Rudely Interrupted is the eleventh studio album by the English rock band, the Animals. The album was released in 1977, and it was the first time that the original lineup of the band had recorded together since their breakup in 1966. The album was produced by Tom Wilson, who had worked with the band on their earlier albums.

The album features ten tracks that showcase the band's signature blues and rock sound. The songs on the album are a mix of original compositions and covers of classic blues and rock songs. The album opens with the track "Brother Bill (The Last Clean Shirt)," a bluesy number that features Eric Burdon's soulful vocals.

The album also includes a cover of the Rolling Stones' "It's All Over Now," which the Animals had previously recorded in 1964. The new version of the song features a more stripped-down arrangement, with a focus on the band's raw energy.

Summary by Silvia Badriotto

Before We Were So Rudely Interrupted is a solid album that showcases the Animals' talents as a blues and rock band. The album may not have been as commercially successful as some of their earlier albums, but it stands as a testament to the band's enduring legacy. Fans of classic blues and rock music will definitely appreciate this album.
