Animal blues starts with " I feel so good " a J.B.Lenoir's classic where it´s plain to see band´s intention to make it closer to blues rock in an excellent communion between slide guitar and the solvency of the rest of the band. Song written by the legendary Mississippi guitarist and singer gives step to " Everyday I have The blues " much more fitted to the tradition and executed in an elegant and effective way. B.B.King's stamp becomes quite clear specially in the guitar sound as Hammond's hot sound is displayed. “Little Red Rooster” takes us again to half time blues - rock originally conceived as a slow blues as “Hound dog” influenced once again by jazz and Funk.

Turns out to be remarkable “Ain't nobody Business” cover where Jaime Alvarelos vocals and Alejandro MIngot Lap Steel take control out of this American standard in purest Animal blues as well as " Trouble in mind " which acquires own dimension in the hand of this Pamplona band, a cover worth having being interpreted by The Band. Animal blues versatility becomes evident in songs such as " Ain't superstitious " pretty close to blues rock again or Blue Monday pays tribute to Louisiana's music through Dave Bartholomew as well as Big Bill Broonzy´s " I feel so good” moving on from what originally a shuffle up to New Orleans french quarter in a funky groove. Closing the album with Soul music contribution " Something you got ", backed up by a Horn section and Hammond organ As clasp of gold, the original country blues by Mississippi John Hurt " Waiting for You”.
