While they’re best remembered for “House of the Rising Sun,” the Animals had more than one track. What about “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood” and “We’ve Gotta Get Out of this Place,” to name but two, as well as a later incarnation’s “San Franciscan Nights,” Eric Burdon’s ode to the flower power of 1967? Always rough and ready, the Animals were a blues band from Newcastle who never looked completely comfortable in their suits, but who nonetheless produced some great pieces of music–although whether there was ever quite enough to fill an entire album you have to judge for yourself. –Chris Nickson
