                                    Boy Bob,you brought back a ‘flashback’ in ’64’.Flat towing our Willys to Island Dragway on Rte.46,a few miles before the ‘strip’,House of the Rising Sun by The Animals came on the radio for the first time I heard it and WOW,was that ever off the beatin path of the every day rock and roll! A begining of a ‘new’ sound.To this day,you never get tired of hearing it,especially the instrumentation of sound you hear produced by that band.I believe they were way ahead of there time.Good to hear it again!
