We've Gotta Get Out of This Place

The husband and wife team of Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil composed "We've Gotta Get Out Of This Place" with the Righteous Brothers in mind. It's hard to miss the connection when you listen to this tune. Here is Barry Mann's take on what is now a classic.

Mickie Most got a demo of "We Gotta Get Out Of This Place" and produced The Animals (details elsewhere) version before the composer could finish his studio take. The single was a top twenty hit in most of the free world. The cut is on the album "Animal Tracks". It has come to light that the composers didn't like this version of their efforts.
