The Alan Price Combo gained a new member, Eric Burdon, in 1962 and shortly thereafter became known as the Animals. Burdon's raspy black-sounding blues vocals contrasted greatly with the current fad of Beatlemania, but hits like House of the Rising Sun, 1962 and Don t Let Me Be Mlsunderstood (1965) establsihed group's popularlty. By now, Prlce had left wlth most of the group's orlglnal members. Burdon's name was featured, and wlth just cause, considerlng the length and magnitude of their success: "San Franciscan Nights", 1967; "Monterey", 1968; and "Sky Pilot", 1963. His voice had matured now, as did his original Iyrics, but he was always at home with blues. After a dynamic double release in 1968, on which the Animals expanded their style through jazz and country western, the group broke apart. McCulloch and Briggs did unsuccessful solo work, while Burdon allegedly disappeared to do movies. He returned with War, however, in the 1970's. Price enjoyed some popularity with the release of his movie soundtrack, "O Lucky Man" in 1973. In a period of nostalgia when other "old" groups reformed with updated sounds for their new audiences, the Animals reformed in 1977, further perfecting the sound that made them famous through the 1960's. A tribute to themselves and their profession.
