"When I Was Young" #15 5/6/1967

This record marked a clear shift in the direction of the Animals' music. Eric Burdon's name was out in front of the band by now. He moved to California and became a spokesman of sorts for the Love Generation of hippies, flower power and...uhhh, certain illicit substances. "And I was so much older then/When I was young..." That concept surfaces in tomorrow's tune as well.
