Great band. Other songs of their work are "We Gotta Get Out of This Place", "It's My Life", "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood". Also, Eric Burdon teamed up with the band War in the early 70's and had a great song "Spill That Wine".

A skilled and powerful band. Resulted in a life long rift between Eric Burdon and organist Alan Price. A traditional song but this arrangement was registered to the credit of Price alone. In the 90s I saw an interview with Burdon who said with gritted teet "I'm not bitter." Price had a solo career, including with Georgie Fame, but Eric Burdon became the legend.

Eric Burdon could sing a phone book... The Animals were blues based british invasion; a very big band. When they broke up, Burdon kept the name as 'Eric Burdon & the Animals' a psychedelic band (Monterey, Sky Pilots, To Love Somebody, White Houses). He later did some good work with War including the hit 'Spill the Wine'.

Great band. The Animals originated in Newcastle Upon Tyne in England which is where I was born. This song is from 1964 and was one of the many great songs from the era which heralded the start of what we in Britain called the swinging sixties. Many great bands emerged including The Animals, Rolling Stones, Kinks, Hollies, The Who and many, many others not forgetting of course the Beatles. It was such an exciting time to be young.

Alan Price the keyboard player was nothing short of astounding .Try their other big hits like "don't let me be misunderstood" and "we gotta get out of this place".

I agree with the recommendations to listen to the Animals songs Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood and We Gotta Get Out of This Place. Eric Burdon did record Spill the Wine with the group War, but it's not my favorite track by that band (too repetitive for my taste). If you want to listen to War, check out The Cisco Kid, Why Can't We Be Friends?, and Low Rider. All three of these show off the band's distinctive sound.

The Animals' guitarist Hilton Valentine, best known for the iconic opening riff on the English rock band's arrangement of "The House of the Rising Sun," has died at the age of 77. 29th January 2021. R.I.P. Keyboard player Alan Price has a fear of flying, and as he travelled the world performing his 60s hits he was gripped with the constant fear of flying. He had to have a shot of vodka before he could even step on a plane.“I once did a tour of 70 cities so that meant 70 vodkas!” said Alan, whose keyboard wizardry turned the Animals into a household name. It was one of the reasons he left the band in 1965.

A few days ago watched an interview withEric Burdon where he said almost 2 minutes of the keyboard splo’s were edited out for radio play in he USA. There was a well known pub called The Rising Sun about two miles from Burdons home. The Animals were originally called The Allan Price Set. He was trying to play like Jimie Smith. To my mind it is his organ that stands out. Price had a hit in UK with a Randy Newman Cover “Simon Smith and...” and another about the Jarrow March.

Eric Burdon and The Animals had a few memorable hits, he does indeed have a powerful voice. Bit of trivia, Alan Price on the organ famously left the group when they went to America as he didn't like to fly. He formed the Alan Price Set and then went solo and had a few hits of his own.

' check out their version of ' BOOM BOOM' 'WE GOTTA GET OUT OF THIS PLACE' 'GOING BACK TO WALKER', 'DON'T LET ME BE MISUNDERSTOOD'. also....in the early 70s, the eric burdon band did a remake of 'don't let me be misunderstood' that kicked ass....very different than the animals version. also....people probably stated that the bassist here is Chas Chandler....he's the guy who saw Hendrix in a club in NY (on a tip from a friend), took him back to england, put together the experience, produced the first couple of albums and managed them..... the rest, as they say, is history .

A recording from a circa 1965/4 television show. Actually, to belie my age, I do believe I watched this at the time. The interesting thing to me has always been how simple not only the melody is, but also the basic bass (although yes, enjoyable) But the mostly overall simplicity of the piece in general. Yes, it was incorporated into a lovely brief organ piece, but otherwise very basic overall. Don’t get me wrong, in my young days I was all over this song, but in my now vintage years, I can listen again with a new ear. Thank you for sharing not only with we from a later date, but for those who do not yet have the delight in enjoying all music from days gone past.

Strong Vocals can overdrive older mics, condenser mics have a hard time dealing with high sound pressures, so also they were not recording digitally, they were recording to a magnetically sensitive oxide layer on a Mylar substrate, which has magnetic flux limits (saturation), and cross channel interference, just a limitation of the technology. Even though people have transferred or re-engineered the tape masters to digital format, you can only get as good as the master tapes are at the time they are transferred to digital. Often with old tapes, the oxide layer can delaminate from the Mylar substrate, loosing it forever. The only way to fix it is to actually heat the tapes in an oven to re-adhere the oxide layer to the mylar. But anyway It is a great song.

Another Eric Burdon and The Animals tune you should check out is "Monterey". It was a hit song about their appearance at the fantastic Monterey Pop Festival in 1967, the hippie Summer of Love (two years before Woodstock). Ironically, bassist Chas Chandler left the band to become Jimi Hendrix's manager prior to the festival. Hendrix became a legend at BOTH festivals by playing with his teeth, simulating sex with his guitar and setting his guitar on fire at Monterey to The Troggs' tune "Wild Thing". To this day it remains one of the most iconic performances in rock history. Watch the movie "Monterey Pop Festival" for the full version since KZfaq has cut/edited the complete performance.

Burdon's powerful bluesy voice perfectly fits this type of song. Alan Price, the keyboard player, made a huge contribution. How often do you see a keyboard player really work the instrument like Price? Just watch his hands. There is a ridiculously superb version sung by Haley Reinhart on American Idol in 2011, sadly short as usual. However, it's still an absolutely great performance that was an absolute knockout on the show. It's on YTube as well

Gambling has destroyed many families and until fairly recently people didn't understand how terribly addictive it can be. This tune may actually predate the settling of America and may have originated in the UK where versions referencing "London Town" have been found. Some members of the British Invasion were interested in American blues music and actually helped popularize it by incorporating it into rock and roll songs. Other top songs by this band include Don't Let me be Misunderstood, It's My Life and the ultra-iconic We Gotta Get Out of This Place.

Btw, Dylan going electric in 65 marked a tectonic shift in American youth culture from folk to rock. Before the hippies were the beatniks, snapping their fingers to acoustic guitars while wearing black turtlenecks in coffee houses. Dylan's switch caused a lot of angst and charges of selling out but proved to be an accurate reading of the times... A lot of music from mid 60s to mid 70s can be called folk rock showing the legacy folk influence.

My sisters had the original albums of Stones, Beatles, Animals and others and kindly left them behind. I grew up on this stuff. The bassist is Chas Chandler, who became Jimi Hendrix' manager and helped him become the artist we all know and love. The tracks that are suggested in other comments are great choices, but don't forget about the New Animals, which were a late 60s incarnation, They were trippy and psychedelic, but what a lineup. Try Sky Pilot, Monterey, When I was Young, Paint it Black (compare to the Stones' original), Good Times, See See Rider. Burdon is a powerhouse blues singer.

Definitely a traditional song recorded by the UK group. The Animals in 1964. Bob Dylan had fine a good cover of this as well . The Animals were part of the 60s British Invasion.
