To my knowledge the Animals' version was recorded in 1967 3 years before Three Dog Night's.

mike1111 - there is nothing listed in my Guiness Book of Hit Singles about the Animals.......and as questionmaster I am always right!

[mike11111]

It wasn't recorded as a single but on an album called Eric is here.

Thank you mrs O, I will take my cake and enjoy it, even though I too think it's Eric Burdon and so does Wiki http://en.wikipedia.o...a_Told_Me_Not_to_Come - however, as you say QM reserves the right to be correct!
Let's have another one soon please!
