The Animals Ark Album Review

The very popular 1960s band The Animals reunited a few times and released an album each time they reunited.

Once in the late 1970s, and once in the early 1980s.

The one I’m talking about here is the 1983 album Ark.

The original members of the band (singer Eric Burdon, bassist Chas Chandler, guitarist Hilton Valentine, keyboardist Alan Price, and drummer John Steel) reunited in the early 80s and made this album that to me still sounds like the band, but also very of the time.

The best way I can describe it is that it’s very 80s, which I love and I’m OK with it.

I think the album Ark is great and I don’t understand why it was not a big hit.

They released one music video for the song The Night, which is awesome.

They also toured this album, releasing a live album too (Greatest Hits Live).

But unfortunately, the reunion did not last.

But I think it was worth the effort because I think this album is great.  Everyone sounds great on it and the songs are great and fun to listen to.

That’s what music is all about.  Having fun.

Seek out this album.  I think you’ll have fun with it too.

Oh and the CD back cover says it was released in 1977.  That’s  a typo.  Their other reunion album, Before We Were So Rudely Interrupted, was released in 1977.  Ark was released in 1983.
