Drummer John Steel first formed The Animals when he and Eric Burden met as art school dropouts. Now 60 years later John is still fulfilling the legacy. With This Legendary band set to play Australia for the final time ever I caught up with John Steel to talk about the upcoming tour, his legacy, and a few other cool The Animals stories.
The Animals were "one of the most important bands" in the British Invasion. The Beatles and Rolling Stones were the headliners, whilst The Animals were the backbone of blues!
Britannia Ruled the airwaves in 1964. In the front ranks, marching in formation behind the Beatles were The Animals who became the second British band to top the American charts after The Beatles. Featuring original member John Steel alongside Danny Handley, Bobby Ruiz and Barney "Boogie" Williams, music fans can expect a fantastic concert of the Best of The Animals.
John Steel first formed The Animals when he and Eric Burden met as art-school dropouts.
"We started off as the Pagan Jazzmen and we morphed into the Pagans, a slightly R&B rock outfit. We played a church hall in Byker [East Newcastle] and this kid from another band who was a rhythm guitar player came over and said, 'Can I sit in?' and there was an old upright piano, so we said, 'Sure'. He hammered this piano with a left hand boogie style. We went, 'Oh come on, you're in the wrong band, you should be playing piano, not guitar!' This was Alan Price and that's how we became a keyboard driven band."
When the band found a 1956 album by Joe Turner called Boss of the Blues, the guys lifted a couple of numbers off the album and called themselves the Kansas City Five and after many incarnations and members coming and going, finally settled on calling themselves the Alan Price Rhythm and Blues Combo – later changing their name to The Animals when they moved to London. According to folklore 'animals' described their wild stage act and the name stuck.
