I like The Animals, sure. In my opinion, The Doors had more consistent material, but when The Animals had a good song it simply blew everyone else out of the water. House of the Rising Sun still hits hard all these years later, and despite being a bit overplayed, never seems to get old. My favorite song of theirs is "Don't Bring me Down", a Carol King number with a touch of Psychadelia. One of my all time favorite 45s.
