Biography
In 1967, lead singer Eric Burdon planned to make a solo career, but then he thought about “New Animals”. He took Barry Jenkins (from The Nashville Teens and the last “Animals” line-up, drums), John Weider (later member of Family, violin, guitar), Danny McCulloch (bass) and Vic Briggs alias Antion (from The Echoes and The Steampacket, guitar, piano, vibes) and recorded the single
When I Was Young which charted in USA #15 and in Australia #2.
For the gig at the Monterey Pop Festival they were officially named “Eric Burdon & The Animals” and they performed their next single
San Franciscan Nights (USA #9, UK #7, Australia #4, Germany #17, Netherlands #6 and Canada #14).After releasing the first album, Winds of Change, they recorded in 1968 three other albums.
After the second album, The Twain Shall Meet, which featured the hits
Monterey and Sky Pilot, Zoot Money (piano, vocals) joined the band for the third album, Every One Of Us, which included the hit single White Houses.In July 1968, the fourth and last album of the band, Love Is, was recorded. For this album, Vic Briggs and Danny McCulloch were fired and guitarist Andy Summers joined the band. John Weider went on bass.
For this album the songs
Ring Of Fire and River Deep Mountain High were recorded and released worldwide in 1969.

Does anyone know more artists that have songs similar to Eric Burdon's "Hotel Hell", "As the Years Go Passing By" and "New York 1963 - America 1968"? I really love this soft bluesy style!

@fromius, I disagree. The psychedelic music started the same time in the US and in GB. It was pioneered by musicians including The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Byrds, and The Yardbirds, emerging as a genre during the mid-1960s among folk rock and blues rock bands in the United Kingdom and United States, such as Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Cream, The Doors and Pink Floyd. It reached a peak in between 1967 and 1969 with the Summer of Love and Woodstock Rock Festival, becoming an international musical movement and associated with a widespread counter-culture, before beginning a decline as changing attitudes, the loss of some key individuals and a back-to-basics movement, led surviving performers to move into new musical areas.

The original, "Mod" edition of The Animals is one of my top ten most-oft-played bands! This version isn't as compelling to me, but it's still Eric Burdon and his crew, making hip-shaking grooves.
