an absolute banger........................and yes i bought this album as a kid...i still have it in mint condition
One of my favourite 60's songs from when I was a kid. Interesting to hear it again. Basically an average high school garage band until Eric Burden starts to sing and then it suddenly ascends to a whole different level. And then the organ kicks in and he's pretty damn good as well.
Never liked house of the rising sun. Eric Burdon's singing grates on you after a short while. Can't imagine listening to him for a whole album. One trick pony musically. His career peaked somewhere around 1966. Because he is boring.
Alan Price went on to do some nice music. What with being a keyboard musician. I liked Hilton Valentine. The opening riff to "baby let me take you home" is killer.
That being said, this song kills.

you feel the same way about Eric Burden as i feel about John Lennon and Paul Mccartney..........there i said it lol....i am a big fan of The Animals and i couldnt care less about the Beatles.....but on a side note Baby Let Me Take You Home, was a very weak song..imo...

Agreed. Weak song, but great opening riff.
Starting to feel the same about Lennon Mcartney. I think old age is kicking in. Starting to like the Stones a bit. Not all. But some of the hate is dwindling.
Robert, we are 2 old codgers talking about music made well over 50 years ago.....the phrase Boy Bands didnt exist back then ..but as a teen i was never interested in Beatles music..too much of a girly band imo...the Stones and the Animals were much tougher musically and i enjoyed their stuff..........i lost interest in the Stones when they started producing stuff like Mothers Little Helper and Ruby Tuesday et al.....The Animals?..they just seemed to disappear
LOL. I am really into BTS now. Korean girl at work loves them. I asked her what does BTS stand for Bi Trans sexuals? Boys to Sissies? My guess is Born To Suck.
She's not talking to me anymore.
