Animal Games is the only album recorded by the original line-up of the British punk band London.[1] [2] Recorded throughout 1977 at the IBC Studios in London,[3] the album was actually released in February 1978 after the group had disbanded. The album contained all the band's singles - "Everyone's A Winner", "Summer of Love" and "Animal Games" although the mix of "Everyone's a Winner" is different from the single version. The catalogue number was MCA MCF 2823. The album was also released on music cassette TC - MCF 2823.
In 1997 Captain Oi! Records released a 'best of London' CD called London The Punk Rock Collection that contains all the tracks to be found on Animal Games.[4] Animal Games was re-released in heavy 220 gram vinyl with full original UK artwork by Malkodiria Records in 2001.[5]
The record was produced by Simon Napier-Bell and engineered by Hugh Jones and Andy Miller. The album sleeve was designed by Chris Townson.
In 2012 the band released a follow-up album to Animal Games called Reboot.[6]
