Retrospective album Product Description
Retrospective album by Animals was released Jul 20, 2004 on the Abkco label. Today the most recognition the Animals get is "House of the Rising Sun" being played on oldies radio, but in the mid-1960s they were a powerful part of the British Invasion, often reckoned on a par with the Beatles, the Stones, and the Who. Retrospective songs Like those bands, the Animals had strong roots in blues and R&B, but, in their original incarnation, they stayed closer to those roots than their peers did. Retrospective album This definitive compilation, masterfully assembled by the ABKCO think tank of Teri Landi and Jody Klein, shows the tough, uncompromising use to which the Animals put their American influences. John Lee Hooker's "Boom Boom" is recast as a raw garage rocker glazed with Alan Price's sinister organ riffs, and the aforementioned "House of the Rising Sun" is transformed from a traditional folk lament to an urgent, ominous piece of churning tumult. Of course, the group skillfully expanded those roots (with the help of some great writers), and turned out some classic working-class-rebel anthems ("We Gotta Get Out of This Place," "It's My Life"). ...See Full Description

| excellent sound my husband asked for a particular song, the animals sang it. i went to their web site and they made it so easy, the hardest part was they had so many to chose from this artist. if you are looking for a song that is no longer in the top 10 charts cduniverse is where you need to look By sephill1056 (summerville, ga, usa)  |
| So good you want a lot more... The SACD layer is superb - easily the best that I've heard the Mickey Most produced songs, and an excellent introduction to music from the later years. Top notch music from one of England's finest bands. By Ox Bone (The Lake District, England)  |
| Great classics IT brought back alot of memories, the music is great. By scrosedds (Henderson, NV, USA)  |
| Sounds good ! Still sounds good after all these years, havn't heard some songs in many years. By erik127 (Arleta,CA,USA)  |
| This is NOT a SACD This is not a SACD! It is a DSD-recording, allright, but that does not make it a SACD no more than an analog recording makes a CD an analog medium. It is still a CD limited to 96db dynamics, -20khz and 44.1 khz sampling rate compared to the SACD's 120db, -100khz and 2.8 mhz sampling rate. Still sounds good, though :-) By johnsa (Denmark) |
