THE ANIMALS - PART 1

'60s British Invasion... should I interpret your silence on this recent Sunday trend as a passive-aggressive endorsement of it? Oh yes, mein lieblings, I think I will do just that.

Today's offering: THE ANIMALS. Amongst R&B-based, '60s British rockers, they were probably second to only THE ROLLING STONES in terms of influence and commercial success.

I think lead singer ERIC BURDON may still be tooling around the globe with some bastardized version of the band today, but that's not the line-up we're interested in hearing from right here, right now....

[MP3] "House of the Rising Sun" [1964]

[MP3] "It's My Life" [1966]

[MP3] "We Gotta Get Out of This Place" [1965]

[MP3] "Help Me Girl" [1967]

[MP3] "Outcast" [1966]
