Eric Burdon & The Animals - New York 1963 - America 1968 (1968)

[thetruewindrunner]

This was my favorite 8 track recording ever. I used to play it while driving stoned in my 63 Ford Galaxie 500 390 4 speed in the late 60's when driving while intoxicated was something that was considered a somewhat normal occurrence. No tickets, no incarceration, no record. It was maybe the greatest time ever for a young man to be alive in America.

I came to know this song as one of the most moving pieces I have ever experienced. True inner city urban street music NYC style.

@JulianThomePictures

i've listen to julian thome the house of the rising sun (very short) , my own world, don't let me be misunderstood and many other. And you have a good voice. And i love the way you sang the house of the rising sun but it wasn't the entire song. I hope that someday i can listen to the full song. oh i'm very sorry for my bad english (i'm french). Have you ever met eric?

[SuperLadypamela]

[jeangreen007]

В детстве я учился играть на гитаре слушая этот альбом. Тогда я не знал как мне повезло. Шли годы и, как жаль я потерял эту музыку. Знал только, что группа animals и вокалист Eric Burdon . А недавно я случайно все нашел и я СЧАСТЛИВ. Спасибо судьбе и таланту парней из группы animals!!!

[rtupin1956]

I don't know how I missed this song but this is the first time I've ever heard it. Thanksfor posting it. I love it!!!

[keshawn654]

all you people stand around with your hands in your pockets Its time to to work do something. eric burdon one of the great poets of our time

[BernieKellman]

This is classic stuff...authentic, poetic rock and roll art. We're so lucky to be able to see and hear this. Thank You. Eric Burdon, who I have met, is the real thing: honest, curious, treats everyone the same with integrity and respect and humility. Long may he thrive!

[thundersgirrl]

@BernieKellman ★ Right on!!! I've never met him personally, but from what I see and feel, he IS DEFINITELY the real thing. A great person, a great singer, a great writer, and naturally just so...cool. Love love love him!!

[neduddgi]

[JasonBsido]

[teddy54BS]

Burdon ís a great - but the best music, he made in the time with with John Weider!

[deadsmiths]

one of my favorite songs, wtf 767 views!!! cmon!

[scraps1946]

When i was i New York in the 60's i saw him Love his music. Then i was told he hug around the blues clubs in Harlem so we went looking for him and we found him jamming with John Lee Hooker man you should have seen it. I will never forget it as long as i live.

[thundersgirrl]

@scraps1946 Great story!! I'm sure it was crazy awesome to be there that night and a REALLY cool memory to have!!!

[movingon4ever]

The New Animals era were all solid LPs:

5 of them in 2 years. Beginning w/Best of

Vol.II(which collected stray singles A&B sides),Winds of Change(classic LP),

Twain shall Meet, Everyone of Us, and Love Is(includes a worthy 18:30 side 4,

Gemini-The Madman,great long double song). A real white Blues singer up front,

not screaming boredom as became the

hype of a UK band soon to follow. Enjoy

these obscure Animals LPs,(CDs).

[vega2ooo]

it must be one of the best albums of the era

[JulianThomePictures]

They have some of the best albums. Check out "Love Is" with Ring of Fire, River Deep Mountain High, Colored Rain and so on.

[hankyhoyo]

I just pulled this album out yesterday. Hadn't heard it for a long time. I forgot all about this song after so long. It sounds so great to hear again. They really made some great songs during these years!Very glad that you posted it!
