 The Animals

Are an English rhythm and blues and rock band, formed in Newcastle upon Tyne in
the early 1960. The band moved to London upon finding fame in 1964. The
Animals were known for their gritty, bluesy sound and deep-voiced frontman Eric
Burdon, as exemplified by their signature song and transatlantic No. 1 hit single,
"House of the Rising Sun", as well as by hits such as "We Gotta Get Out of This
Place", "It's My Life", "I'm Crying" and "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood". The band
balanced tough, rock-edged pop singles against rhythm and blues-orientated
album material and were part of the British Invasion of the US.
The Animals underwent numerous personnel changes in the mid-1960s and
suffered from poor business management. Under the name Eric Burdon and the
Animals, the much-changed act moved to California and achieved commercial
success as a psychedelic and hard rock band with hits like "San Franciscan
Nights", "When I Was Young" and "Sky Pilot", before disbanding at the end of the
decade. Altogether, the group had ten Top Twenty hits in both the UK Singles
Chart and the US Billboard Hot 100.
The original lineup of Burdon, Alan Price, Chas Chandler, Hilton
Valentine and John Steel reunited for a one off benefit concert in Newcastle in
1968. They later had brief comebacks in 1975 and 1983. There have been several
partial regroupings of the original era members since then under various names.
The Animals were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994
Eric Victor Burdon:

Is an English singer-songwriter and actor. He was previously the vocalist of rock

band The Animals and funk band War. He is regarded as one of the British
Invasion's most distinct singers with his deep, powerful blues-rock voice. He is also
known for his aggressive stage performances.
Eric Burdon was born in 1941 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. His father, Matt,
was originally from Tyneside. His mother, Rene, was originally from Ireland and
moved to Scotland before settling in Newcastle in the 1930s. He also had a
younger sister, Irene. Burdon states he often had a divided loyalty in his sense of
place and identity. He was born to a lower working-class family; his father did
electrical work in some of the clubs Burdon would later play. Because of his dad's
line of work in electrical repair, the Burdon family had a TV by the time Eric was 10;
in his autobiography, Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood, he recalls the electrifying
moment of first seeing Louis Armstrong on TV only beginning his love
for blues music.

Alan Price:

band the Animals and for his subsequent solo work.[1]
Price was born in Fatfield, Washington, County Durham, and was educated

a founding member of the Tyneside group "The Alan Price Rhythm and Blues
Combo", which was later renamed the Animals. His organ-playing on songs by the
Animals, such as "The House of the Rising Sun", "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood"
and "Bring It On Home to Me" was a key element in the group's success.[1]
After leaving the Animals, Price went on to have success on his own with his own
band the Alan Price Set and later with Georgie Fame. He introduced the songs
of Randy Newman to a wider audience. Later, he appeared on his own television
show as well as achieving success with film scores, including winning critical
acclaim for his musical contribution to the 1973 film O Lucky Man! as well as
writing the score to the stage musical Andy Capp.

Hilton Stewart Paterson Valentine:

Valentine was born in North Shields, Northumberland, and was influenced by the
1950s skiffle craze. His mother bought him his first guitar in 1956 when he was
13,[2] he taught himself some chords from a book called "Teach Yourself a
Thousand Chords", and formed his own skiffle group called the Heppers.[2] They
played local gigs and a newspaper described them at the time as, "A young but
promising skiffle group". The Heppers eventually evolved into a rock and roll band,
the Wildcats in c. 1959. During this period Valentine played a Futurama III solid
guitar,[3] this was the UK brandname of importer Selmer, his next guitar was
a Burns Vibra-Artiste which he bought in 1960–61.[3] The Wildcats was a popular
band in the Tyneside area getting a lot of bookings for dance halls, working men's
clubs, church halls etc., and it was during this period that they decided to record a
10" acetate LP titled Sounds of the Wild Cats.

go on to have a career in music. Growing up, Steel was exposed
to records from Bing Crosby, Al Jolson, Fats Waller and Sid Phillips.
