| Note: | ||||
| The late 1960's line up of Eric Burdon & The Animals is also sometimes referred to as Eric Burdon & The New Animals. Their first album Winds Of Change, released in 1967, was clearly credited on the LP sleeve and on the LP labels to Eric Burdon & The Animals. The front of the LP sleeve however carried a substantial block of text titled "The New Animals". | ||||
