“The Animal Speaks”, Golden Palominos (John Lydon vocals)

This way: The Animal Speaks

The Golden Palominos are an American musical group headed by drummer and composer Anton Fier, first formed in 1981. Aside from Fier, the Palominos membership has been wildly elastic, with only bassist Bill Laswell and guitarist Nicky Skopelitis appearing on every album through 1996. Their latest work, 2012's A Good Country Mile features vocalist Kevn Kinney.

While the Palominos' records usually featured a core set of musicians and a certain emotional continuity throughout the bulk of an album, various guest appearances resulted in stylistic changes from track to track. This song from Visions of Excess is the second album by the Golden Palominos, 1985.

The album features Anton Fier,  Richard Thompson,  Arto Lindsay, Chris Stamey, Carla Bley, Syd Straw, Michael Stipe (he's all over this!), John Lydon (only on one song, but what a song!).
