Eric Burdon & The Animals - St. James Infirmary (REACTION) with my wife

[@johnniekight1879]

They have a "down to Earth" look I think. I still go yo see Eric whenever he's in the area.

[@thomasjurgensen2086]

Try Bobby Blue Bland's version or Cab Callaway

[@DeborahThurmond]

Eric Burdon was way ahead of his time. Such an amazing talent.

[@user-tb9dx9mg2njsb]

A young singer with an old soul!

[@MerchantOfAlba]

So true 😊

[@ridemfast7625]

Eric is one a the few born with soul.

[@Colton-q7p]

The second version of the animals are the best! Great covers of to love somebody and ring of fire. The live version of roadrunner is amazing!

[@johno1765]

Eric Burdon & The Animals could squeeze all the pathos out of a blues song that was there.

[@bunniebee2475]

You should check out Hugh Laurie (he played Dr. House on the TV show House) do Saint James Infirmary. So very good!

[@jamesferris4573]

Eric Burden and the Animals were the bad boys of rock out of the British invasion of the mid-1960s.

Please, please, do this same song by Louis Armstrong … if you do, you will understand my insistence. Meantime, keep up your jolly reactions. Best wishes from my little countryside in France.

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Thank you. Much love from Romania 💚

[@jean-pierreyot5871]

@@MerchantOfAlba Thanks for the acknowledgment and the info. I had been wondering for a while now whereabouts you were from.

[@laziojohnny79]

@@jean-pierreyot5871 I agree with Louis Armstrong , his version was also played on my mom's funeral. An absolute classic tearjerker.

Check out "The House of the Rising Sun" by the Animals. I first heard this song in 1964! My God, 60 years ago... how time flies when you're having fun. ENJOY!!! 😊

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Yes, we already did 'The House of the Rising Sun'. Amazing song. Please search in our videos 💚

[@keeperokewl9569]

Check out Arlo Guthrie's version.... 10x better! Bluesy, folksy...

Hello to you I'm French and a fan of your channel I've been following you for a very long time and I'm very spoiled because I'm a fan of Phil Collins and also Rammstein and Mylene Farmer I think you're great keep studying these artists

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Many thanks and warm greetings from Romania 💚

Love Eric Bourdon! My favorite version of this song is done by Zephyr!

[@A-moment-in-time554]

You have to listen to Eric burden and the animals with "letter from the county farm".

[@terrycunningham8118]

Follow this one up with Son House singing "Death Letter". White Stripes do a credible cover of it too.

[@johnharkness7114]

My theory is that in the original order of stanzas, he first goes down to St James infirmary, THEN goes to the bar, only to discover that Joe (and presumably others) had also had 'relations' with here. The rest is all about how the narrator wants to die

[@robertdupuis3300]

So happy to hear this. Burdon at his best. Now you need to find, on the album Love is, the song ''As the years go passing by''. A long blues that will blow your mind from late 60s.

[@michaelasay8587]

Never heard this...couldn't have been a hit.

[@robertdupuis3300]

@@michaelasay8587 It wasn't a hit. Does it have to be to be a great song. It came out competing with the likes of Sgt.Pepper, Beggar's Banquet. Many great songs on the album. River deep, mountain high by Burdon. Great. To love somebody. Ring of fire.

[@MerchantOfAlba]

It did already! We have done 'As the Years Go Passing By'. Please search in our videos. Much love 💚

[@johnharkness7114]

Wow, I didn't know they covered this. You've gotta check Cab Calloway's version, and Devil Makes Three as well

[@MerchantOfAlba]

We will. Thank you 👍
