The bass player is responsible for taking Jimi Hendrix to the UK and became his manager.
Chaz Chandler, yep a legend, moved rock music forward big time in the 60's.
he passed away a number of years ago and i also want to say valentine the lead guitarist just passed away on jan 31 2021
At 79, his voice is still powerful (saw him as recently as last year)
Great band. Other songs of their work are "We Gotta Get Out of This Place", "It's My Life", "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood". Also, Eric Burdon teamed up with the band War in the early 70's and had a great song "Spill That Wine".
Don't bring me Down, We Got To Get Out Of This Place and Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood. Also try Eric Burdon and War (Spill The Wine)
Agree, Eric Burdon is a vastly underrated voice talent. I fell down the E B rabbit hole and learned a great deal about this “should be legend!”
Boom Boom Boom Boom!
Eric Burdon and War did a cover of "Paint it Black " that is so worth checking out
I liked them better than the “Stones”!
@@jayroo9260 , I concur! I try to mention the same every time someone does a reaction to this song or Eric Burdon and War “Spill the Wine”. No one seems to venture passed these two songs with Eric Burdon singing and it’s unfortunate because people are missing out on a truly powerful performer and singer.
Lead singer Eric Burdon is awesome. He comes across as one of those cocky little guys in a bar who would pick a fight with you for looking at him the wrong way. But the power of his voice always takes people by surprise.
Oh yeah. Eric Burdon! What a voice. Everyone who hears this is just knocked out by him, and by the keyboard player, too. Other cool Animals numbers include "It's My Life" and "We Gotta Get Out of This Place", among others.
Alan Price is the keyboard player
And after those he can move on with some of Eric's work with War, like "Spill the Wine".
This is way ahead of its time for 64, The Beatles had " I want to hold your hand "out!
@Stewart Cohen-Jones I was born in 60 but I had two sisters 8 and 9 yrs older that had all the albums and It seemed to me that the music changed in the second half of the 60s but your right and there was so much great music that came out in the 60s!
Yes he had such a strong voice for someone so young. Usually startles people. Also notice back then everyone wore matching clothes.
I always heard the brothel interpretation. It made it the "dirty" side of the english invation. Fun fact: the bass player, Chaz Chandler, became a band manager and "discovered" Jimi Hendrix.
That organ riff is killer! ♥
"Sky Pilot".
Truly great song.
And "Monterey!"
Mostly blacklisted from the airwaves when "Sky Pilot" came out... But if you could find a radio station that played it they edited out the words "Thou shalt not kill" .
Please play long version if possible.
About the chaplains. At the time I just thought it was the pilots. Definitely the long version is incredibly powerful. "The young soldier so ill looks at the sky pilot, remembers the words thou shall not kill".
This was the first ROCK &ROLL song I ever heard. I was 7 and I never looked back. ERIC BURDON AND THE ANIMALS, "HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN".
What an outstanding group. Eric Burdon's voice is stellar, and that's not to discount the rest of the band. I'd love to hear It's My Life. It's one of me and my father's favorite tracks by The Animals.
This was The Animals biggest hit. Eric Burdon had one of the A-list voices in rock and I think you did another a while back - David Clayton Thomas. Next up for The Animals should be Don't Let me Be Misunderstood, We Gotta Get Out of This Place, and When I Was Young.
Thought this is about a whorehouse
Could be wrong
A skilled and powerful band. Resulted in a life long rift between Eric Burdon and organist Alan Price. A traditional song but this arrangement was registered to the credit of Price alone. In the 90s I saw an interview with Burdon who said with gritted teet "I'm not bitter." Price had a solo career, including with Georgie Fame, but Eric Burdon became the legend.
My favorite part of the video is at the end when as they are walking down the steps, the guitarist has a huge grin on his face. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.
He is now 82, I believe, and is still singing! His voice is one of the best of his time, with his raspiness and his ability to hit very low, deep notes. I love listening to him sing.
Eric Burdon's vocals and Alan Price's/Dave Rowberry's Vox Continental organ gave the Animals their unique sound.
Great band. The Animals originated in Newcastle Upon Tyne in England which is where I was born. This song is from 1964 and was one of the many great songs from the era which heralded the start of what we in Britain called the swinging sixties. Many great bands emerged including The Animals, Rolling Stones, Kinks, Hollies, The Who and many, many others not forgetting of course the Beatles. It was such an exciting time to be young.
Eric Burdon. Iconic rock singer. So powerful with such ease.
Animals had some good songs, often in a bluesy sound - e.g. Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood and San Franciscan Nights. And Eric Burdon has a great voice - e.g. Montery and Spill the Wine and White Houses.
Eric went on to form the band "War" . Very diverse, great musicians. Check them out
Just try "Spill the wine" with Eric Burdon!!!
The longer album version.
The Animals' guitarist Hilton Valentine, best known for the iconic opening riff on the English rock band's arrangement of "The House of the Rising Sun," has died at the age of 77. 29th January 2021. R.I.P. Keyboard player Alan Price has a fear of flying, and as he travelled the world performing his 60s hits he was gripped with the constant fear of flying.
He had to have a shot of vodka before he could even step on a plane.“I once did a tour of 70 cities so that meant 70 vodkas!” said Alan, whose keyboard wizardry turned the Animals into a household name. It was one of the reasons he left the band in 1965.
This is the best organ solo in rock and roll!!
I still have a hard time with the knowledge an entire generation hasn't heard the music I grew up with.Have your little sister sit with you(with or without camera)and have her listen to it.She has great reactions and is wise beyond her years in musical understanding.She is lucky to have you and your father helping her with musical education
Interesting side note - there is some evidence suggesting that the roots of this song actually date back to the 1500s. 👍
You are correct . Both this song and the St. James Infirmary are thought to come from an English folk song called "The Unfortunate Rake"
You just dont expect that voice out that young guy, so strong and controlled. Another memory lane song, love it...Music is so pulling, draws you into the story. Thanx Daniel
Eric Burdon has an amazing voice. Such emotion!
Eric Burdon could sing a phone book... The Animals were blues based british invasion; a very big band. When they broke up, Burdon kept the name as 'Eric Burdon & the Animals' a psychedelic band (Monterey, Sky Pilots, To Love Somebody, White Houses). He later did some good work with War including the hit 'Spill the Wine'.
My favorite song by Eric Burdon & the Animals is 'San Franciscan Nights' but I've never seen anyone react to it.
I have to agree, I like that one a lot too. Went through about 60 comments before seeing it recommended first, then 10 more to yours... I hope he gets to it as well.
Yes, great song! Also Sky Pilot!
Eric Burdon and the Animals, what can I say! Sign of the times! The first concert I ever saw in 1965 and the Animals were the back-up to Herman’s Hermits!
The Animals was one of the British bands that lead the British Invasion (1964-1967) that changed music in the US in the mid 60s. After the British Invasion music in the US (and the world) was never the same again
First song I learned to play on guitar. This is an old song, my uncle played a banjo in the French Quarter in the 50s and 60s. He remembered a slightly different version when he played there.
Interesting side note: The Animals' bassist, Chas Chandler, later "discovered" Jimi Hendrix, put together and managed the band The Jimi Hendrix Experience, and produced Jimi's first couple of albums.
British singer. This song came out in the early sixties and my brother listened to the Animals while in Viet Nam. “We Gotta Get Out of This Place” was the salvation of many soldiers in the jungles of Viet Nam just wanting to go home. The Animals had many hits.
My all time favorite song. First heard it in 1964 at age 15. Now, in 2020, it’s my iPhone ringtone! Love it!
Oh, a great Animals song is “Sky Pilot”, which is military slang for Chaplin.
I think you must mean chaplain.
I agree with the recommendations to listen to the Animals songs Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood and We Gotta Get Out of This Place. Eric Burdon did record Spill the Wine with the group War, but it's not my favorite track by that band (too repetitive for my taste). If you want to listen to War, check out The Cisco Kid, Why Can't We Be Friends?, and Low Rider. All three of these show off the band's distinctive sound.
The first song I learned to finger pick, about 50 years ago. Wow, time flies.
Yup!
I have always loved this song!! Eric Burdon's voice is absolutely amazing!!
I learned a little more of the history of the band from your video. Thanks for posting and keep putting the extra stuff like that. It makes your reaction videos stand out from the others.
I saw him do this live in a high school gymnasium before he flew off the charts. He was phenomenal!
My dad's all time favorite group. He and Eric Burdon are now friends. My dad became a concert promoter after retiring and began booking gigs for his hero Eric here in the states. Pretty incredible that my dad got to meet his idol. And I love this song. The power of it is mind blowing. I felt confused when I was a kid watching this cause I couldn't understand how that voice came out of that young guy. Still baffles me lol.
This was the song that knocked "I Want To Hold Your Hand" out of number 1 in Atlanta.
One of the first songs I learned to play on the guitar. Powerful lyrics and music.
The keyboard player in this group is Alan Price. His version of "I Put a Spell on You" is fantastic!!!
Alan Price's organ is outstanding. Really memorable keyboards.
Eric Burdon was one of the best vocalists to come out of the british invasion. this is the stuff what was on the AM radio (fm had not been yet) when i was a kid....and the animals were my oldest brother's favorite. ..so i was VERY exposed to this stuff. ' check out their version of ' BOOM BOOM' 'WE GOTTA GET OUT OF THIS PLACE' 'GOING BACK TO WALKER', 'DON'T LET ME BE MISUNDERSTOOD'. also....in the early 70s, the eric burdon band did a remake of 'don't let me be misunderstood' that kicked ass....very different than the animals version. also....people probably stated that the bassist here is Chas Chandler....he's the guy who saw Hendrix in a club in NY (on a tip from a friend), took him back to england, put together the experience, produced the first couple of albums and managed them..... the rest, as they say, is history
.
Great reaction to an iconic song. It always seemed so hauntingly beautiful and Eric's vocals are perfect for the tune. Thanks🌞
Iconic song, for sure! The Animals had a bunch of great tunes, as did Eric Burdon as a solo artist and with the band "War".
This vid, of their first big hit, is funny, because they were sporting their "Beatles Haircuts and Suits"!!!
I was always amazed at that powerful soulful voice that came out of that baby faced young fella . His name is Eric Burdon.. Yes this song was released in late 64 or 65 .Even in the 70's it was a right of passage to play for all young aspiring guitarists. Alan Price the keyboard player was nothing short of astounding .Try their other big hits like "don't let me be misunderstood" and "we gotta get out of this place".
Eric Burdon is 80 yrs old now but he can still rock on! Imagine this was in the 1960s! ....you would not even recognize him! Eric Burdon has alot of of great hits you might want to post like "please dont let me be misunderstood", "sky pilot" and "we gotta get out of this place" and many many more all hits! Oh and we cant forget "spill the wine"
the Beatles started the British Invasion, but the Animals were the first British group that the Greasers at my school would admit liking
Oh yeah, this was one of the first songs you learn as a new budding guitarist!
There are classics and then there are CLASSICS. This falls into the latter category!
🎵🎸
😁👍✌️🇬🇧🙏 they are from my hometown of Newcastle!
One of my fave songs ever, just the power and intensity of his voice, the fantastic organ music, and the sort of ominous, subversive tone over all.
The original, popular song, is from the 30's, 40's, I think. Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell, have made a version too. His voice Is amazing!!! And he was only 22 or 23 when they recorded this song. So young, so poweful voice.
Btw, people were there drinking and gambling all night until sunrise, that's why it was called house of the rising sun...
It’s been a long time since reading what Bob Dylan said about hearing this electric cover, but I think it was, “it really knocked me out”. I believe he was referring to it’s influence on his decision to go electric.
Eric Burdon and The Animals had a few memorable hits, he does indeed have a powerful voice.
Bit of trivia, Alan Price on the organ famously left the group when they went to America as he didn't like to fly. He formed the Alan Price Set and then went solo and had a few hits of his own.
The House of the Rising Sun was an infamous brothel in old New Orleans. No one knows for sure if it ever really existed. The original ballad was sung from the point of view of a girl prostitute. Eric Burdon of the Animals changed the gender of the singer.
Strong Vocals can overdrive older mics, condenser mics have a hard time dealing with high sound pressures, so also they were not recording digitally, they were recording to a magnetically sensitive oxide layer on a Mylar substrate, which has magnetic flux limits (saturation), and cross channel interference, just a limitation of the technology. Even though people have transferred or re-engineered the tape masters to digital format, you can only get as good as the master tapes are at the time they are transferred to digital. Often with old tapes, the oxide layer can delaminate from the Mylar substrate, loosing it forever. The only way to fix it is to actually heat the tapes in an oven to re-adhere the oxide layer to the mylar. But anyway It is a great song.
and the face bone is connected to the head bond by heating it up in the oven and fusing them together with some kind flux capacitor
WHAT ? Wtf
@@sarahgarcia8954 LOL just science, that's all...
Okay, the memory that comes back to me for this song was that is was playing when I first slow-danced with a girl. I was 14. Keep 'em coming, Daniel!
This was a hit in like ‘65. Think about that......56 years old! How can YOU not understand his lyrics??
6 years old, sitting with mom and dad watching Ed Sullivan on the black and white TV. Ed says, "And next, Eric Burdon and the animals." We say, "great! We love the animal acts on Ed Sullivan!" The commercial break ends, no doubt encouraging us to smoke one brand or another of cigarette, and we hear the opening chords of this song. Collective groan and the channel gets changed. I remember thinking, even as a wee slip of a lad, wait, that sounded kind of interesting. Oh well, my exposure to this classic had to wait a few years.
I'm waaay too young to be around when this song came out, but Eric Burden is one helluva singer. One of england's best bands
Great tunes by the animals: " When I Was Young ", " San Franciscan Night", " Sky Pilot ", " Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood ". All are worthy of a listen.
Alan Price on organ. The bassist, Chas Chandler, became Jimi Hendrix's manager. This came out in 1964.
Classic cover of an old blues tune. Eric Burden get’s a huge amount of vocals out of that small frame ! I would recommend “We got to get out of this place” and “ Don’t let me be misunderstood” for future reactions.
The #1 song in Canada on the day I was born.
Cool, my fellow Canadian!🇨🇦
@@lisamorrison2149 why do canadians always say A : C A N A D A
The guitar player cracking up in the background near the end made me laugh😁😁😁
I love seeing people reacting to and listening to this song.....
Gambling has destroyed many families and until fairly recently people didn't understand how terribly addictive it can be. This tune may actually predate the settling of America and may have originated in the UK where versions referencing "London Town" have been found. Some members of the British Invasion were interested in American blues music and actually helped popularize it by incorporating it into rock and roll songs. Other top songs by this band include Don't Let me be Misunderstood, It's My Life and the ultra-iconic We Gotta Get Out of This Place.
A few days ago watched an interview withEric Burdon where he said almost 2 minutes
of the keyboard splo’s were edited out for radio play in he USA.
There was a well known pub called The Rising Sun about two miles from Burdons home.
The Animals were originally called The Allan Price Set. He was trying to play like Jimie Smith.
To my mind it is his organ that stands out.
Price had a hit in UK with a Randy Newman Cover “Simon Smith and...” and another about the Jarrow March.
Burdon's powerful bluesy voice perfectly fits this type of song. Alan Price, the keyboard player, made a huge contribution. How often do you see a keyboard player really work the instrument like Price? Just watch his hands.
There is a ridiculously superb version sung by Haley Reinhart on American Idol in 2011, sadly short as usual. However, it's still an absolutely great performance that was an absolute knockout on the show. It's on YTube as well
Btw, Dylan going electric in 65 marked a tectonic shift in American youth culture from folk to rock. Before the hippies were the beatniks, snapping their fingers to acoustic guitars while wearing black turtlenecks in coffee houses. Dylan's switch caused a lot of angst and charges of selling out but proved to be an accurate reading of the times... A lot of music from mid 60s to mid 70s can be called folk rock showing the legacy folk influence.
The bass player is Chas Chandler who brought Jimi Hendrix to the UK in 1966 - the rest is history.
Definitely a traditional song recorded by the UK group. The Animals in 1964. Bob Dylan had fine a good cover of this as well . The Animals were part of the 60s British Invasion.
Another Eric Burdon and The Animals tune you should check out is "Monterey". It was a hit song about their appearance at the fantastic Monterey Pop Festival in 1967, the hippie Summer of Love (two years before Woodstock). Ironically, bassist Chas Chandler left the band to become Jimi Hendrix's manager prior to the festival. Hendrix became a legend at BOTH festivals by playing with his teeth, simulating sex with his guitar and setting his guitar on fire at Monterey to The Troggs' tune "Wild Thing". To this day it remains one of the most iconic performances in rock history. Watch the movie "Monterey Pop Festival" for the full version since UA-cam has cut/edited the complete performance.
You've been listening to so many of my favorites recently i love it haha
We used to sing this tune to the words of Amazing Grace in youth group at church. I played a 12 string along with 2 other guys that played a 12 string and 6 string. That was 30 years ago now. I think the animals song came out in 1964 or 65.
catch an early version of this song by LEADBELLY recored in the 30's true roots music
In '64 I played in a band that did weekend gigs. We practiced in my parent's garage. (a true garage band) We were playing this song and my mum came out and said she loved the song. We said we just made it up and were honing it. She left and about 20 minutes later came back and said. "You guys. I just heard that song on the radio." Busted. We all (including my mum) had a great laugh.
This could apply to other "reactions to classics": Somewhere near age 70, Eric Burdon continues to perform (COVID interruptions ofc) and there are a dozen YT vids of him singing this - still rockin - still great - as a "senior" to live crowd tears and acclaim. Would be a worth a watch, for both those who savor the reactions, and those that have a reaction they wish to share.
This song really grabbed my attention the 1st time i heard it i must have been in the 2nd grade of school. I had heard the Beatles but this seemed different. I remember not liking the Beatles at 1st because of the screaming girls when i saw them on tv but that changed when i heard " Rubber Soul" a year or so later.
A recording from a circa 1965/4 television show. Actually, to belie my age, I do believe I watched this at the time. The interesting thing to me has always been how simple not only the melody is, but also the basic bass (although yes, enjoyable) But the mostly overall simplicity of the piece in general. Yes, it was incorporated into a lovely brief organ piece, but otherwise very basic overall.
Don’t get me wrong, in my young days I was all over this song, but in my now vintage years, I can listen again with a new ear. Thank you for sharing not only with we from a later date, but for those who do not yet have the delight in enjoying all music from days gone past.
Todd Rundgren. Hello it's Me.I Saw the Light. He helped raise Liv Tyler, Steven Tyler's daughter..I had just come upon that story by browsing and found it interesting as I like both of them!
I loved the Animals, our graduation song from high school was "We Got to get out of this Place"!!
13:32 Well --- Peter & Gordon's "World Without Love" was a Lennon/McCartney original, written for them by Paul McCartney. McCartney was dating Jane Asher, Peter Asher's sister, and lived in an attic bedroom adjacent to Peter's. They became very good friends and maintained that friendship after Paul and Jane broke up. Peter went on to become a talent developer for Apple Records and discovered many top performers including James Taylor (becoming his record producer) and Linda Ronstadt.
Thank you for those insights
Heard this in the grocery store TODAY. You've probably been hearing all your life.
My uncle showed me the cords back about 1977 I've been playing it ever since We Are Legion ✌️♥️
another excellent song from that era is "Baby Please Don't Go" by Them featuring Van Morrison on vocals
So I never really thought of this until now, but this song was a forerunner of the folk rock movement in the U.S. that The Byrds would jumpstart with their cover of Dylan's "Mr. Tambourine Man" less than a year after this song was released, and also inspired Dylan to go electric.
Daniel - on keyboards here is Alan Price who was a major artist in his own right and has done some great stuff in the past. His music is featured in a wonderful movie called ‘O Lucky Man’ a 1973 black comedy movie. His band was called The Alan Price Set. Well worth watching. (Sorry, posted this before I had watched the whole of your video).
Eric Burdon moved to California many years ago for health reasons, but still does concerts.
This song can be traced back into the 1930's. Writer unknown, was pretty much passed from neighborhood to neighborhood from front porch to front porch blues players in the black parts of town. Several different incarnations have been recorded. One is about a whore house called the Rising Sun, another about a county jail called The House of the Rising Sun because of a carving on the front facade that resembles a sun rising, or setting on your fate. I think this version is of the later because of the line; " I've got one foot on the platform (train station platform), the other foot on the train. I'm going back to New Orleans, to wear that ball and chain." Chain Gangs were very prevalent back in the 30's and 40's especially in the south.
I didn't know that Dylan's decision to "go electric" (and thus revolutionize rock n roll) was influenced by The Animals. Cool info.
Exactly why Iove Daniel's work. Learn a lot here
The walking around replicates the New Orleans funeral dirge.
I first heard this song in the Martin Scorsese film "Casino," and it hooked me. Great song. Been covered by everyone from Bob Dylan to Joan Baez to Nina Simone to Dolly Parton. Dylan heard it from Greenwich Village folk singer Dave Van Ronk. In an interview for the documentary No Direction Home, Van Ronk said that he was intending to record the song and that Dylan copied his version. Van Ronk recorded it soon thereafter for the album Just Dave Van Ronk. Eric Burdon of The Animals first heard the song in a club in Newcastle, England, where it was sung by the Northumbrian folk singer Johnny Handle.
I was still in high school when this came out and I graduated in 1967. I have always loved ❤ this
