THE ANIMALS/ERIC BURDON~1st LP FROM 1964~SEALED IN SHRINK~NM/MINT~MONO~1st ISSUE
Product Description
ANOTHER LP FROM THE AMAZING COLLECTION OF 10,000+ LPs THAT WE ARE OVERJOYED TO HAVE PURCHASED!
THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE ALBUMS IN THIS COLLECTION HAD BEEN HORDED OVER A PERIOD OF 30 YEARS STARTING IN THE MID-1980s AND CONTINUING UP THROUGH 2014!
TO SAY THAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS OBSESSED WITH COLLECTING WOULD BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT.

MGM Records ?? E-4264
SEALED ORIGINAL MONO LP FROM 1964 - OVER HALF A CENTURY AGO!!
SHRINKWRAP MAY NOT BE FROM ITS ISSUE IN 1964 ALTHOUGH THE DISCOUNT STICKER ON THE FRONT INDICATES THAT IT IS AT LEAST FROM THE EARLY 1970s.
THERE IS A SMALL DRILL-HOLE IN THE LOWER LEFT CORNER.
COVER IS NEAR MINT WITH VERY SMALL DENTS IN A COUPLE OF CORNERS.
Released a month ahead of its U.K. counterpart, with which it shared only seven of its 12 tracks, the Animals' first American album is an entertaining assortment of the recent LP sessions, plus both sides of their first two singles ("Baby Let Me Take You Home" and, of course, "House of the Rising Sun") and one further B-side, "Blue Feeling" (from the newly released "Boom Boom" single). The presence of that latter track, incidentally, would see British collectors spend much of the next 27 years searching for American pressings, before it finally found its way onto a full U.K. release; that matter notwithstanding, however, both permutations of the album offer up a handsome representation of precisely what the Animals meant at this time, a drawling, dirty R&B (with the emphasis on the B) sound personified in the three assaults on the Chuck Berry songbook. The bread and butter of virtually every band on the circuit of the time, the Animals' versions of "Around and Around," "Memphis," and "Talkin' 'Bout You" are far removed from the clear-cut visions served up elsewhere in the British Invasion. Eric Burdon's gleeful retelling of what, by Berry's normal standards, is the somewhat cutesy tale of "Memphis," is still second only to the decade-later Faces' version in terms of fashioning drama from the document, while it would take a souped-up Bowie and the Spiders to bring more sense of movement to "Around and Around." The remainder of the set sees the group moving further afield in search of material, with Fats Domino's "I've Been Around" also extending their studio prowess by recruiting a female chorus to chase Burdon through the lyric. Another Domino number, "I'm in Love Again," reinforces the band's obvious admiration for the New Orleans scene -- although the fact that the same city plays host to the action of "House of the Rising Sun" was probably more fortuitous than intended. That latter song, of course, dominates the album, even in the cruelly truncated edited version that is included here. What has to be admired, then, is the manner in which The Animals refuses to try and follow it up -- indeed, the only other "trad. arranged by" credit in the band's recorded repertoire, "Bury My Body," was among the U.K. album tracks omitted from the American set.

PLEASE NOTE: We have set our shipping prices to cover costs on an average basis. You may be charged slightly more - or less - than the actual cost of postage; Priority postage varies according to destination, records and jackets vary in weight, all of which makes it impossible to set an exact "correct" price for all customers, especially internationally. We ship all LP's in new (unused) custom LP mailers. We pack records with filler pads, placing the disc in an inner sleeve outside the cover to prevent seam splitting in transit. Part of our postage fee covers the cost of the mailer and pads (which currently costs us up to a dollar per).

RECORD GRADING POLICY
MINT = like new or near new with only one or two small insignificant defects, a 9 or better on a 1-10 scale
EXCELLENT = Would be Near Mint, except for a couple of light hairlines or scuffs, which do not affect play
VG++ = still a very nice record with all or nearly all of its original gloss but may have a few more light, surface marks, hairlines, needle tracks or the like which should not materially affect play
VG+ = a nice, but used record that may have a series of light scuffs or scratches. It probably plays with a few pops, but has no serious problems.
VG = a well-used record that still should sound OK when played, but may have moderate surface noise, pops, etc.
VG- = a very well-worn record that plays through without skipping, but will do until a better copy comes along.
Good = not actually good at all but probably will play through but with much in the way of surface noise, pops, crackles, etc. Still, will have no cracks, chips or the like
Fair = you'?re getting this record just to own but not to play
Poor = the sky's the limit, generally I will discard a record this bad (and sell the cover, jacket or sleeve alone) unless the label holds some particular interest
