Rock-'n-roll was popular in the '60s. With The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and... The Animals. The 60's also saw the start of R&B.
After the Beatles, The Animals were the second British band to achieve success in the United States. 'House of the Rising Sun' is a genuine classic. 

John Steel and Mickey Gallagher still tour together. The Animals & Friends is a rhythm-and-blues band, whose fans still sing along with the songs at the top of their voices. Their greatest hits include 'We Gotta Get Out of this Place', 'Boom Boom', 'Don't Let Me be Misunderstood', 'Baby Let Me Take You Home', 'I Put a Spell on You' and, of course, 'House of the Rising Sun'.
