Questions: It was this day in Rock History in 1976, the first day of the photo shoot for this upcoming album cover took place at Battersea Power Station in London, England with a giant inflatable pig lashed between two of the structure’s tall towers. What was it?

Answer: It was Pink Floyd’s Animals. A trained marksman was hired ready to fire if the inflatable escaped, but was not needed on this, the first day. Unfortunately, the following day the marksman hadn’t been rebooked, so when the inflatable broke free from its moorings, it was able to float away and a legend was born.
