The Animals

Explore The Animals’ self-titled debut, a landmark blend of blues, R&B, traditional folk covers, and Eric Burdon’s original material, anchored by the enduring track House of the Rising Sun. Originally issued in 1964, the album helped define the British Invasion’s raw, soulful sound that still resonates today. This remastered edition draws from first-generation mono master tapes and includes liner notes by Rolling Stone senior editor David Fricke, providing new context on a classic.
