The Animals were an English music group of the 1960s known in the United States as part of the British Invasion. Known for their gritty, bluesy sound and deep-voiced frontman Eric Burdon, as exemplified by their signature songs "The House of the Rising Sun" and "We Gotta Get Out Of This Place", the band balanced tough, rock-edged pop singles against rhythm and blues-oriented album material. The Animals underwent numerous personnel changes and emerged as an exponent of psychedelic rock before dissolving at the end of the decade.

@Budsmokerhaha your thinking the blasters dark night

Is it me or was in Dusk Till Dawn?
-
Very nice!

This is my favorite version. Much as I respect the Yardbirds, I never got Keith Reif's voice...though I'd say instrumentally, The Yardbirds version is superior.
-
Best voice in rock. Nothing comes close.
-

-
Agreed, Clapton is a douche.

Eric Burden is an unrecognized landmark in rock and roll history. In his youth he blazed the trail, and in his maturity he continued to hold up his end of the bargain. I cannot say enough. Words fail me.

@BLUESMANRONCHICAGO They are awesome band but stating that is wrong. Paul and John had hugely emotional and powerful voices too.
