In the early 60s the TV was even more conservative than it is today. The producers always told the R&R stars to tone it down to a white homogenized frequency. Lol lol. You will note that all the wild stars would give a conservative performance. Look at the Beatles, Stones , Yardbirds, the were all so well groomed that every single hair was in place lol. This performance by the Animals is actually wild for the TV fashion of those days.

I was in SE Asia in the 60s, but not in Vietnam. "We Gotta Get Outa This Place" was called the unofficial anthem of The Nam for the American GIs. I also enjoyed "Sky Pilot". I think the name goes back to World War 2 and refers to the Padres who offered comfort for the poor fucks who had to go out and kill or be killed. As an Air Force guy, knowing my kind were dying in SE Asia, it was pretty intense.

Eric had great voice I loved the animals and all their music

[@cristiansubiabre4158]

what a great song...love the guitar....back then it was all talent, no lip synchronizing or computerized sounds.....this group sang so many great songs. Gotta love the dancing moves on the music video of the crowd.

[@spaceghost8995]

This is lip synced .😂

[@debrajones6533]

Should be in rock & roll hall of fame. Shameful. Eric Burton deserves to be recognized especially with his voice.

[@zeevaamrita6624]

It IS. In 2004 it was ranked number 233 on Rolling Stone's "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time" list; it is also in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll list.

This BAND & E. BURDON revolutionized R&R Blues! Feels just like the WORLD we are living in TODAY...

I consider The Animals the first punk rock band. The arrangements, the vocals, the subject matter…the name!

[@LPJack02]

RIP the two members of The Animals Chas Chandler (December 18, 1938 - July 17, 1996), aged 57 Hilton Valentine (May 21, 1943 - January 29, 2021), aged 77 You both will always be remembered as legends.

[@natewhite455]

Chas Chandler, had high potential, as a Music 🎶 Director and Producer, It's too bad him And Hendrix could not get back together and work on the 4 Album...

[@Krzyszczynski]

Add to that list Dave Rowberry (July 4, 1940 - June 6, 2003), aged 62. Not a founder-member, but replaced Alan Price on keyboards from 1965 and featured on several of their best-known hits.. That's him playing in this clip.

I remember seeing this as a kid on our black and white TV, I think this is from the movie IT'S A BIKINI WORLD.

I’ll never forget my dad driving me to the orthodontist…I was like 17 and I was hungover..and this song came on…and he turned it up real loud when the part came on about his dads hair turning gray and slaving his life away….needless to say I got the message! And everytime I hear this song I think of that!

These boys performed so many iconic rock and blues tunes. Incredible! 👍🏼

[@redhats_exit1984]

Eric Burdon, genius. One of the greats! This band was so innovative and ahead of it's time! So many songs are timeless and still relevent. Animals 💝💝💝

I saw Eric Burdon perform at the Hoboken street festival in 2004 and he still had it! Voice was strong as ever.

Eric Burton is one the unrecognized Greats. His work with the Animals incredible. His later work with War outstanding. When Pop music was an art, now, it's a math formula with algorithms, and it sucks

[@PuffKitty]

He seems pretty iconic to me 🤷‍♂️

[@emmef7970]

Much respect to all Vietnam Vets. Thank you for your service. I'm a 65 year old female & I was still in grade school when this song came out. I had two older brothers in junior/senior year of high school that listened to this song on repeat so it quickly became a favorite of mine. I have been singing this song to myself (and sometimes softly out loud) so my co-workers can hear me, at almost every job I have ever had in my life. lol. It always makes me smile no matter how bad the day is going. My colleagues are usually not familiar with the song but it always puts a smile on their faces too.

Was 14 when the song was released and I was blown away by Burdon's powerful and raspy voice. Loved 'em ever since and the nostalgia from hearing their songs is brilliant and takes me back to my raucous teenage years. Sing it again Eric...
