About the album
The album was recorded in 1966, after the collapse of the original composition of The Animals and shortly before the formation of the composition, which will be known as Eric Burdon & The (New) Animals [4] . The record for the most part contains cover versions of songs by various pop singers recorded by Eric Burdon and drummer Barry Jenkins, accompanied by an orchestra led by Horace Ott [4] . It is possible that some members of the original composition of The Animals also participated in the recording [4] . The release of the disc took place only in the United States.
