Great question: I do not think that Justin would have still been with the Animals. The Animals had an established style built around Eric's vocals and I cannot see Justin's addtition causing any change in their direction. Justin has said that the biggest lesson he learned from his time with Marty Wilde was the importance of writing his own songs. I cannot see that Justin's songwriting style would have meshed with what the Animal's produced. If anything, I think it would have been a step back for Justin.

It was Justin's destiny to become a Moody Blue.
