The oddest of all Animals LP:s. Recorded as a gap filler between the old and new Animals, but musically it got nothing to do with any of the groups incarnations. It's not R&B, rock or psych, just an ordinary orchestrated cover album, partly saved by Burdons special voice. Rumour say a few members from the old group participates, but apart from Burdon and the orchestra only drummer Barry Jenkins is confirmed. Generated a US top 30 single "Help Me Girl" wich also reached #14 in UK. Produced by Tom Wilson and arranged by Horace Ott it is well done and as far as I can hear the mono mix is dedicated, but the music way too mainstream to my taste. The album was only issued in USA, on MGM, the UK single came on Decca. (ÄNÄ*) (YZÄ*) (ÖXCÅ*)
