The issue, as I see it, is that music today is over produced. People sing with their head, too often try to impress by performing vocal gymnastics with their voice, and try to mimic/copy a rigid formula. Everyone ends up sounding the same. Back in the day, people just sang from the heart and let their emotions, personality, and feelings come across fully. It's a far more authentic and raw approach and why older music resonates so strongly. It's not pretentious.
@cuebj Жыл бұрын
Oh, they did not just sing from the heart. They had spent a lot of time learning their craft in church fêtes, pubs, and clubs - how to work an audience, project their voice with the low grade microphones and PA systems of the time. And we remember the best. There was also a lot of formulaic junk where a pretty boy provided a face for some good session musicians. There is technique today. There is also technology to 'improve' people who can't sing, and all they have is emotion (real or faked)

While all that is true there is another dimension that is rarely, if ever, discussed. Music is an expression of the social conditions of the time it is sung. The era between the 1940s and the end of the 1980s was The Cold War, which saw the existential threat of nuclear doom. Countries were balancing modernisation, revolutions, traditions, and rapid technological development, and rapidly rising populations. The tensions in societies from all this led to creativity in music, movie, and books that began to relax with the end of that era. Stability replaced creativity somewhat from the 1990s to now.
@nirfz Жыл бұрын
@@dennismulhall3057 According to that, during the pandemics peak and the start of the war in ukraine better music would have been made. (Many existential uncertanties for many people especially artists during the pandemics peak, and a general uncertainty and fear of Putin launching a nuke when his war started to not go as planned.) Also during the early 90's central and southern european music should have experienced a peak in creativity. (There was a war starting in 91's many seem to forget that it happened. I don't, and my country wasn't even actively involved. But there were bullet holes in buildings on our side of the border, AAA guns were dug in outside my village and tanks were protecting the border.) I think it's less stability as that has taken over, but more like general uninterest of music labels and musicians in topics other than their own life, partying, being famous... The last person i remember who made a famous "protest song" against something was P!nks "dear Mr. President" aimed for GW Bush. So when Trump became president i waited for another song, but there came none. From nobody. Just one example of why i think artists lost interest in everything outside their own lifes. Another thing: all the time producers and people in deciding positions tried to "use a prooven formula" so promoting something that sounds like something that was successfull once. And sometimes they promoted something different. As they didn't have the technological means to make it happen all the time. Nowadays the technological means exist, and they get heavily used. Not because they need to all the time, but because they think they have to. (There's a british guy here on YT who has shown that Michael Buble's record company us using a form of autotune on his songs (even though there's no need for it, he has prooven that he can sing well enough without). And even Queen songs aren't protected from that happening. Songs of them have been "remastered" and sent through an autotune algorythm. It actually makes it sound less good in my ears, but young folk who haven't heard it in a different form...

The main thing about the Animals was how much Eric Burdon's voice was really an extra instrument. Led Zep used this too, it was actually a common thing for a lot of British music right through the 60's into the early 80's - think Kate Bush, or Christine McVie, or Phil Collins, or Bruce Dickinson, and it flowed into a lot of Aussie/NZ music of the era like Cold Chisel/Jimmy Barnes, John Farnham, Kater Ceberano, Tim Finn, et al.. 60's Britpop was a much more powerful wave than Sounds of the mirror and the razor blade of the 1990's revival. Don't get me wrong I love a bit of britpop revival but the original had a lot more guts, and a war to protest about.

This is one of my favorits songs, i was very young when I herd this song for the First time . I was born in 1956 and this song came out 1964 . Eric Burdons voice so powerfull for me he was one of the best Singers in the 60,s i love his voice so much. Alan Price and this keyboard is pure magic ,the band was briliant the Animals original line up is my favorit group of all , I still love this group so much.

The voices of the 60s and 70s are just so unique, look for more music of that era because you're right it was better back then as it hadn't become a business like it is today. The variety was greater and there was so much more experimentation.

Here's what I found. Hope this helps: "If you mean the definitive version by the Animals, with Eric Burdon on vocals, the organist was Alan Price and he played a Hammond organ , though he was also known to use a Vox." I also found this: "What kind of bass guitar did Chas Chandler play? Chas Chandler - Gibson EB-2 Bass Guitar."

Wow, haven't viewed you in a while. Good choice here. Classic early 60's feel and plenty of talent. The song is traditional and been rewritten many times but this is one of the best variations, from 1964. A good staircase or place to get the reverb and then just play fixes so many post mix issues. If it was good enough for Led Zep then it's more than good enough for the artists of today.

If you must need to know 😘. The Vox Continental is a transistorised combo organ that was manufactured between 1962 and 1971 by the British musical equipment manufacturer Vox. It was designed for touring musicians and as an alternative to the heavy Hammond organ.

Must admit I want their puppy. Crying here. Bit drunk and missing my boy and girl so much after almost 20 years since I first cuddled them in my arms.I will have wriggly puppies again but there is no replacing them

A lot of other Animals songs have a chorus, where the rest of the band just shouts without any harmonies. This one just has the lead vocalist throughout--it's so much better.

If you haven't figured out yet that bass was a Gibson EB 2 Sunburst. Made from 1967-1970 I think. You can still find them online.

One of my all-time favorite songs. No covers live up to this original, but Leo Moracchioli does a pretty awesome metal cover of it :)

5:01 "One foot on the platform, the other foot on the train. I'm goin' back to New Orleans, to wear that ball and chain", is so poignant. We make those choices all the time! The first time I heard this, it was sung by a young woman who changed the meaning of the lyrics without changing the lyrics. It wasn't about gambling. It's universal. It's always about selling your soul.

How impossibley young (especially for so much soul) they are! One could think they ran from the stage to their homeroom school teacher! Well I guess I was too. Back then.

Basically he's playing an "Electric Organ". There were coming in to play in the late 50's and into the 60's. As we say here in Texas; Y'all be safe.

The bass player , Chas Chandler , was the guy who brought Jimi Hendrix to England in 1966 . I think his bass in this clip is an Epiphone , who were owned by Gibson at the time . Alas Jimi and Chas are no longer with us . Chas was a great guy , I have seen him in many interviews and he had agreat sense of humour , with his Newcastle accent .

That is a Rhodes electric piano. This was before pro tools, before auto tune and pitch correct, and the technology had just gotten to 4-track recording. There was no piecing of songs together in the booth, it was always played live in the studio by all the membes.

Sorry that is a Hammond organ. The rhodes came a few years later.

The rasp is in his voice when he want to get it out, its like what many clean metal singers struggles to have. And He got both!
