Description
Alan Price quit The Animals in 1965 and embarked on a solo career backed by his own band The Alan Price Set on the Decca label. He was immediately successful with a string of chart hits: 'I Put A Spell On You' (#9), 'Hi Lili Hi Lo' (#11), 'Simon Smith And His Amazing Dancing Bear' (#4), 'The House That Jack Built' (#4) and 'Don't Stop The Carnival' (#13). Two albums 'The Price To Play' (1966) and 'A Price On His Head' (1967) were recorded and both are presented individually in this package along with a third disc containing every non-album single A-side and B-side recorded for Decca in that period 1965-1969. Extensive new liner notes written by renowned veteran music journalist John Tobler who was at the very first London gig by the Alan Price Set back in 1965.

Earl,

The closest to affordable would be this -- one third party seller currently has the out of print Japanese CD of O Lucky Man! for $19.98:
