Alan Price
A self-taught musician, primarily a
keyboard player, he was educated at Jarrow Grammar
School, South Tyneside, and was a founding member of the
Tyneside group The Alan Price Rhythm and Blues Combo, then
renamed
The Animals. His playing on their international hit "House
of the Rising Sun" and other tracks was a key element in
the Animals' success. His arrangement of "House of the
Rising Sun," a traditional folk song, has become more
recognisable than previous incarnations.
For the past 20 years Alan Price has continued to regularly
tour the
UK, both on his own, and sometimes in 60's revues with
groups such as
Manfred Mann,
The Searchers and
The Hollies.
