Animal Magic

Description

Originally released in 1986, Animal Magic is the second album by The Blow Monkeys, which helped the band break through commercially after the critically acclaimed first album Limping For A Generation from 1984. Animal Magic includes the hit single Forbidden Fruit and the classic Digging Your Scene. The album, a triumph of intelligent, soul-influenced sophisti-pop, is a treasure trove of superbly crafted gems, including I Backed A Winner (In You), which features singer Dr Robert backed by the a cappella singers The Demon Barbers, and Sweet Murder, with Jamaican reggae musician Eek-A-Mouse.

Also available as a special 4CD digipack reissue, with the original album & B-sides, single versions and the
