Здравствуйте!
Есть такое понятие – пропавшие без вести. Вот сегодня я хочу немного рассказать вам о группе The Animals – пропавшую без вести, при этом одну из величайших британских групп 1960-х годов.
The Animals – Inside Looking Out
The Animals – одна из самых выдающихся групп Золотого Века. Существовали они в своем первоначальном составе совсе недолго – с 1964 по 1966 годы, записали четыре альбома и шесть синглов, но след оставили – как падающая звезда первой величины. Их певец Эрик Бердон пел блюз так, как никто другой из белых – без вежливости, без закавык, по-коренному. За это уважению к ним не было предела.
The Animals – See See Rider
А петь Эрику именно так было отчего – о бедной жизни он знал не понаслышке: он вырос в суровом шахтерском городе Ньюкасле и, как у Максима Горького, улица была его университетом.
"Теперь-то я понимаю, что мои родители пытались дать мне все, что могли, но мне не позволялось иметь дома музыкальные инструменты. Дома нельзя было шуметь; нельзя было даже завести кошку или собаку, потому что за это нас сразу бы выселили из жилья, за которое родители трудились всю жизнь. И я не мог дождаться момента, когда смогу вырваться оттуда".
Когда он немного подрос, Эрик начал время от времени ездить в Париж (благо из Англии недалеко – только Ла-Манш переплыть), где проводил время в компании черных джазменов из Америки (которых тогда в Париже было полным-полно). У них он и впитывал дух свободы.
The Animals – Help Me Girl
Подобное притягивается к подобному; вскоре и в родном городе нашлась компания людей, разделявших ощущения Эрика и мечтавших играть любимую им черную музыку. Они сошлись в группу и назвали ее The Animals ("Животные").
Эрик говорит: "Мы должны были быть первыми панками, мы были агрессивны, но должны были быть еще агрессивнее. Мне кажется, люди вокруг тогда просто не понимали, что именно значило название группы. Только французы поняли нас: мы понимаем, говорили они, речь идет о животном инстинкте: убить, когда голоден".
И они на самом деле были дикими. Гитарист Хильтон Валентайн вспоминает: "Я играл на гитаре, упав на спину, катался с ней по сцене, трахал ее – кто еще делал что-либо подобное в 1964 году? Мы все были из бедных рабочих кварталов и готовы были на все, чтобы вырваться из этой нищеты. И смогли это сделать."
Их версия старой американской тюремной баллады "Дом Восходящего Солнца" оказалась первой ласточкой фолк-рока. Юный Боб Дилан, только что записавший эту песню на своем первом альбоме (откуда они ее и взяли), вспоминает, что был просто сбит с ног версией The Animals.
Песня немедленно стала "номером один" по обе стороны Атлантики.
The Animals – The House Of The Rising Sun
Наряду с Beatles и Stones – The Animals оказались во главе так называемого "Британского Вторжения" – импорта английских групп в изголодавшиеся по неприглаженности и неполиткорректности Соединенные Штаты.
Очарование происходящему придавал тот факт, что британцы, как правило, молились на черную американскую музыку, от блюза до Тамлы Мотаун, и Америка была для них Землей Обетованной – и, к тому же, золотым колодцем. Не став популярными за океаном, разбогатеть было невозможно. К тому же юное население Америки воспринимала пришельцев из Англии как полубогов. Крисси Хайнд из Pretenders, которая в то время была школьницей, рассказывала, что в тогдашней Америке достаточно было просто выдавать себя за англичанина – и такому было можно абсолютно все, простой британский акцент немедленно давал обладателю его статус сверхчеловека.
В 80-е годы эта ситуация в миниатюре повторилась в Москве, когда туда начали кататься нищие группы из Ленинграда.
The Animals – Don't Bring Me Down
Но популярность – это еще не все. "Я ненавидел это выражение – Британское Вторжение. Это была афера, которую придумал какой-то жук – хотя теперь я рад, что это произошло, м

Hello!
There is such a thing - missing. Today I want to tell you a little about The Animals-missing, while one of the greatest British groups of the 1960s.
The Animals - Inside Looking Out
The Animals is one of the most outstanding groups of the Golden Age. They existed in their initial composition of the Council for long - from 1964 to 1966, recorded four albums and six singles, but they left the trace as a falling star of the first magnitude. Their singer Eric Berdon sang blues like no other of the whites-without politeness, without a harden, in a root. For this, respect for them knew no bounds.
The Animals - See See Rider
And so it was why to sing Eric - about poor life he knew firsthand: he grew up in the harsh miner's city of Newcastle and, like Maxim Gorky, the street was his university.
"Now I understand that my parents tried to give me everything that they could, but I was not allowed to have musical instruments at home. It was impossible to make noise at home; it was impossible to even get a cat or dog, because we would immediately be evicted from housing for this , for which my parents worked all my life. And I could not wait for the moment when I could break out of there. "
When he grew up a little, Eric began to go to Paris from time to time (the benefit from England is not far from the La-Channel to swim), where he spent time in the company of Black Jazmens from America (which were then full in Paris). With them he absorbed the spirit of freedom.
The Animals - Help Me Girls
This is attracted to this; Soon in their hometown there was a company of people who shared Eric’s feelings and dreamed of playing their beloved black music. They agreed in the group and called it The Animals ("animals").
Eric says: “We should have been the first pancakes, we were aggressive, but we had to be even more aggressive. It seems to me that people around then simply did not understand what exactly the name of the group meant. Only the French understood us: we understand, they said, speech It goes about the animal instinct: to kill when it is hungry. "
And they were actually wild. Guitarist Hilton Valentine recalls: “I played the guitar, falling on my back, rode with her on the stage, fucked her-who else did something like this in 1964? We were all from poor working quarters and were ready to break out From this poverty. And they were able to do it. "
Their version of the old American prison ballad "The House of the Rising Sun" turned out to be the first swallow of folk rock. The young Bob Dylan, who had just recorded this song on his first album (from where they got it), recalls that he was simply knocked down by the version of The Animals.
The song immediately became "number one" on both sides of the Atlantic.
The Animals - The House of the Ringing Sun
Along with Beatles and Stones - The Animals, were headed by the so -called "British invasion" - the import of English groups into the United States starving in disbelief and incorrectness.
The charm of what was happening was given by the fact that the British, as a rule, prayed to black American music, from blues to Tamla Motown, and America was a promised land for them - and, moreover, a gold well. Without becoming popular behind the ocean, it was impossible to get rich. In addition, the young population of America perceived the aliens from England as the demigods. Chrissy Hynd from Pretenders, who at that time was a schoolgirl, said that in the then America it was enough to simply impersonate the Englishman - and this could be absolutely everything, a simple British accent immediately gave the owner of his superman status.
In the 80s, this situation in miniature repeated in Moscow when poor groups from Leningrad began to ride there.
The Animals - Donmet Bring Me Down
But popularity is not all. "I hated this expression-a British invasion. It was a scam that some kind of bug invented-although I am now glad that this happened, m
