"The opening opus of Rising Sun will never sound the same!... You didn’t just play it, you lived it! Heartbroken by the sudden news of Hilton’s passing.
We had great times together, Geordie lad. From the North Shields to the entire world...Rock In Peace"

Sad news.

Certainly the opening riff of the House of the Rising Sun is one of the most instantly recognisable intros of all time.

Always was a fan (and still am) of the Animals since 1964....

RIP Hilton Valentine.
