Eric Burdon's searingly powerful blues-rock voice was the hallmark of Sixties beat group The Animals. Best known for their gritty, bluesy sound and string of hits like "House of the Rising Sun", "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" and "We've Gotta Get Out of this Place", it was Burdon’s brooding intensity that burned the indelible mark. After a solo career that’s moved from psychedelia to down-home blues, the singer is back touring with his band, The Animals, singing old and new tunes with the same power and impact.
