I grew up listening to Eric Burdon and the Animals in 1964 with House of the Rising Sun and liked his vocals and of course the organ (I am an organ player) and then when Eric Burdon declares War came out it showed me his eclectic stylings and roots and creativity. In 1982 I toured with Eric for the year and did some recording but I never saw him do the same show twice - always creative. But that period with War I liked more. Eric never felt he was the band leader, only a member and musician in the band and guided and suggested rather than dictating and he always worked on direction with the keyboardists - Alan Price, Dave Rowberry, Zoot Money, Lonnie Jordan, Brian Auger and others and I was lucky enough to work with him in 1982 and 2006-2016. In 1982 we played at the Roxy and Lonnie came to the show - we went to the after party at a friend of Eric's house and Lonnie and I played 4 hands for several hours on an old square grand piano. I had not seen a lot of the videos of the band Eric & War had together but thanks to the internet and TH-cam I can finally see not just hear the collaborations. It's very refreshing knowing what was inside Eric back then and what I heard in the years before and after I played with him. Inspiring...
Wait a minute, I just put Red Young into discogs and it immediately came up with Joan Armatrading and Dolly Parton... that’s pretty cool !! I probably already have wax with you on the keys 🤓🤓🤓
@@igottawriteabook I didn't play with War but I knew the guys. We did a cruise with Eric and Harold Brown and Lee Oscar were leading the Low Rider Band and Lee showed up once one time we played in Seattle and we played Spill The WIne and Mother Earth. I kept going into Roll On Kirk and Lee eventually joined in. I liked all the Eric Burton and War stuff. In 1982 Lonnie Jordan and I played 4 hand piano at a party after I played at the Roxy in LA with Eric. Did 4 albums with Joan plus 3 years of touring. I worked with Cher on a TV special (and of course with Sonny on the road) and Dolly was a special guest. When she did 9 to 5 she asked me to play in Las Vegas for six months and after that she did Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. Played on some of those recordings and also Heartbreak Express. I'll post that sometime on my TH-cam video page. Linda Ronstadt was another vocalist I worked with.
@@RedYoungOne I’ve watched several concerts on TH-cam with you and the band playing with Eric and you were all great. I loved your music. I especially loved the Loreley Open Air Festival in 1982!
He was the coolest rocker doing this. Absolute passion. I was in the Ocean.., this is mid-late to Vietnam level intensity. President DICK Nixon had us rockin in intensity
He was called the Musician's Musician by other musicians. His voice, rhythm, and timing was/is impeccable. The audience here are duds. I'd be on my feet the whole time. Long live Eric Burdon.
I am an old man drummer that cut my chops playing in the 60s and 70s. I loved Eric Burdon - the Blackest White Man I ever heard. His music will stand the test of time - and to be honest; when I hear him sing I hear Delta Blues. We lived at the perfect time - the music we created, and enjoyed was/is the greatest ever heard or played at anytime. I am grateful to the internet for this same reason - it is the museum , a repository for the music that should live on for centuries , long after we are all gone.
Definitely I was born in 69 so I grew up in the 70s we had all those albums everything from Rock and roll to funk to r&b to jazz even some of my aunties include my grandmother at classical albums Mozart and stuff like that so yeah I grew up in all that music plus I'm a drummer myself at the age of 53 years old LOL 🥁🥁
Eric remembers so many words and the band has so many instrument players. I just find all these guys so incredibly talented putting all this together and the incredible music writing. Pure genius !!!
Since you wrote Little did you know how bad it was going to get and still getting? It sad it had to get to this point. But it's Biblical it must happen because it is written. God Help Us All.♥️🙏
@@knows-about >not all the youngsters Indeed. There are some amazing young-uns here on TH-cam. Jacob Collier for one, Louis Cole for two, Yoyoka for three.
Absolutely in the beginning, The Animals....! Afterwards when he collaborated with others (Witherspoon, Auger, etcetera) - ALL wonderful....he was still the best.... imho i think his best collab was War members. Had pleasure of meeting him in person, attended many of his concerts over the years. Always my fave singer, author.... and a wonderful person ❗❗
Just turned 65. Grew up with Eric ...It was the best of times. Growing up in SF 60-70s was the greatest. Music Everywhere. Winterland with it's 3 dollar full shows with all the greats. Thanks for being a Big part of my journey. Much Appreciated ❤
If you didn't feel this in the depths of your core, you are dead. Pure , raw gold. What a vibe. Burden and War made love on this one❤ Hell, every one!🎼🎵
Brian Jones called Eric the greatest blues singer to come out of England and this is one of the reasons why...... and this band was absolutely phenomenal !
The Bass player (B.B.) Morris Dickerson is the best BASS player ever!!! I had the chance to meet & spend 3days & nights with BB in the back room of 'morehead' head shop in berdo. I'll never forget those times. to bad they pushed him out of war i lost interest after that! But thanks for reminding of how Great they were as WAR!!! G.O.A.T. B.B.!!!
Eric Burden seemed to attract really fine musicians solely on his dedication to blues, and powerful voice. There’s not too many of these videos of War, and I’m so glad I found this one.
I was 19 when first heard Eric Burdon singing house of the rising sun, I am now 76yrs old and enjoying this video with war! That makes me blessed! thank you
WAR didn't need Eric to be great...they already were. Eric sold WAR to America with his own unique abilities and name recognition. Deep, Deep talent here!
@@91dodgespiritrt... and that's your opinion. The proof is they were altrady playing in La when Eric found them. He joined THEM. They knew they didnt need him and only did two albums with him. They went on without him and hsd a stringl of hits. Eric just kind of faded away. He hasn't had a hit since 1970. Spill the Wine of course.
@@91dodgespiritrt I agree 💯 my friend. I know Eric personally too. He's a very gently, kindly man with no allures. Musically we don't have to talk more - he's amazing! Now he got enough bucks, his satisfaction and lives at a place like paradise. Kindly regards
Die Musik spricht mir aus dem Herzen. Alles, was ich mit Musik, mit ihrer Grundlage, in Verbindung bringen kann. Kommt das, weil ich fast der Generation angehöre? Oder hat es tiefer greifende Gründe? Eine Musik zum Nachdenken - wer Spass dran hat
I saw War in a 3500 seat Hall in summer of '74. They blew the lid off the joint. Tightest band I ever saw. And I saw all the heavyweights '67-'77. Unforgettable.
most do not have the energy,stamina or THE Love of making music.especially Jam Session Music.Get stoned have a good time.No worries as we have these daze.
we can't draw back time, unfortunately. Eric burdon still is the best blues and soul singer of all times. No matter, no matter what colour, we are all brothers
This is what real music sounds like kids! One of the greatest, iconic group of musicians of all time.. It's a shame what passes as music today! Listen very closely, pick out each instrument and hear their part. It's called a band!!!! Whoa! A band? Yes! A Band! Their not around anymore, but listen to this music , compare it to music today, and then you can cry like I do! Sometimes you can go see some 70 ...80 year Olds playing their hits!!! Guess it's all we have left!!!! God Bless!
I saw War, w/o Eric Burdon, Summer of '76- they opened the Doobie Bros. Opening song -"Why can't we be Friends?" They were fantastic, as were the Doobies, 1st song of their set was... "Jesus is just Alright". It was a special time - I was privledged to be there! So much spirit of LOVE & Unity ❤️
I saw War about 20 years ago at the Liberty Lunch, Austin, Texas. They played all of the old hits and jammed on them. Played for 2 hours easy. Memorable show.
@@ellenmcintyre1247 Bonsoir Ellen , you were lucky to be there in that fantastic time when people used to fight for each other. A l'époque , je vivais dans mon pays , le Congo en Afrique central et nous étions fanatiques de War et Eric Burdon et je n'oublie pas les Doobie Brothers . Quelle période fantastique de ma jeunesse. Bonsoir depuis Paris ( France ).
I feel like everyone needs to take a moment to appreciate Harold Ray Brown...everyone took a break in the song except him. The man's arms had to be burning banging on the skins non-stop for thirty minutes straight! What a great song, great band and what a gnarly drummer!
@@silverspaceflyer Papa Dee Allen. He was a basketball player (hence, his size) and a percussionist. As far as I can tell, War was his only big claim to fame. He did, however, also play saxophone.
@@tritonogletree2806 Thanks for that. You're right, War was his major claim to fame, but wow, what a phenomenal claim. Sad to read he collapsed on stage in 1988, but at least he passed doing what he loved. Cheers!
I was 21, in the Navy, and this was Vietnam Rock. Uh Huh.... Chickin in My hands. Now Im smokin duh stuff, and sipin a beer in 2024, this is mind boggling and pure entertainment with real soul
Funky blues like to never be seen again...the best of the 70's...a place, time, mind...I was a teenager then smokin the Maui wowie with the Saint Paulie girls and Becks...life was great
Yum becks i was born in 69. I was am hip. Had parents music grand parents music brothers and sisters music. Rock n Roll baby . My generation was Disco!!! And u can guess what happened to my Donna Summer album .with one brother wearing a tshirt w rainbow tape that said Disco Suxx. Lol when i brought home Queens First double album..my family approved. Bought it w change at aWal Mart.
I'm not sure but in some venues dancing was actually not allowed due to the small size of the space, something about fire codes etc at the time, maybe that was the case here
Nobody sings the blues better than Eric Burdon'. I love War too, they are the funkiest mix of artists from way back then. How cool were they? Burdon's songs bring back old memories. Thanks for posting.
One of the greatest collaborations EVER... Eric Burdon & War..... These guys could not have fit in any better then they did with each other.... CLASSIC....
Mr Eric Burdon one of the most underrated vocalist .... he puts mick to shame !! .. and when WAR and eric came together nobody could touch them ... the time they spent together should be a documentary .. they have that special attachment that blends together !!
I was fortunate enough to see Eric Burdon at the Arena in Vienna in 1976 or so. Some time before the gig he was sitting alone in the sun enjoying a drink - still overwhelmed by the encounter - yes, I was a fangirl :o) - I finally "dared" to ask him for an autograph on the backside of a tram ticket (I didn't have anything else), which he gladly gave me. I still cherish it to this day!
When I was getting ready to go to war in Vietnam in 1964 it was the British Invasion and the Beatles and Rolling Stones were the most 'Popular' bands at the time, and I dug what they were doing BUT Eric Burdon and the Animals were of another level that appealed to my 19 year old soul and nothing has changed. Eric Burdon is still the BEST :)
Albert Blevins I was 14 in 1973 when the troops came back home from the Vietnam war. And Eric Burdon had that exact same affect on me. I respect him more than any other musician in this world. I love him so much!
♥ 11 May 1941 - HAPPY BIRTHDAY to living legend ERIC BURDON who turns 79-years today. Eric you're the greatest and we love you. Heartfelt and best birthday wishes radiate out to you along with tons of appreciation and thanks from your hordes of fans worldwide. Here's to you lovely man. x
This is one of the gems of youtube. Im not so sure ive ever seen a better ensemble at their peak of prowess. This show rivals about anything done by their peers. Its a shame this will never be on your local classic rock station.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY greetings to ERIC BURDON who turns 80 years today! (born May 11, 1941). Eric how can we begin to thankyou for all you have given the music world over the years. Thankyou for mesmerising us with your animal magnetism, your hard work, your beautiful music and your supreme voice ! 80 years is quite a landmark! We your fans love you, we appreciate you and we are truly thankful! Wishing you a very HAPPY 80th BIRTHDAY today, may your day be filled with love, happiness and celebration. With best wishes, from Magusmagic.
WAR with ERIC BURDON playing live in the early seventies...can this ever go wrong? Seriously, this is something EVERYBODY should watch to fully understand the degree music has fallen into these days!
Mats Nilsson : You are so right Mats, sucks that these day's you never see a multi racial band that creates such great music, WAR w/ Eric Burdon belong in The Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame!!
plenty of great music around these days, if you're not too lazy to find it and seek it out. the record companies are dead. that's the difference. it's not all controlled by old men in suits any more. deal with it, and support your local scene rather than complaining.
@@mj.l There's nothing like this around anymore or if there is they're playing the oldie circuit. This was top 40 music in 1970, all you had to do was turn on the radio in 1970 and just about every song was great in some way or other, I'm not saying you liked everything you heard but it was almost all quality music and played by all humans not computers nd no pitch correcter back then.
I never heard of eric i was listening to the dead and it Popped up. A voice said bet thats fire. And here i am!!!! Listeningon my bose alone here i am.
This band was on fire and Eric, WOW! Eric was possessed! His voice, his charisma, his movement, his natural talent & raw sex appeal off the scale! What a man, what a soul! 🔥🔥🔥
One of the greatest collabrations ever, The animal.Eric Burdin with his soulful blusy voice with a hell of a band WAR great soul band with great musicans, RIP Charles Miller RIP Papa Dee Aleen
I went to Jr. High with Charles Miller's son so I knew about the band WAR but, didn't know about the band with Eric Burdon. About 20 years ago a friend gave me a copy of both albums he did with them and I was blown away. Those CD's are always in my car for long road trips. Who else can do a 13 minute version of Paint it Black where it sounds like 3 songs in one?
I saw them in this year in a hall that couldn't have had 200 people in it because of a severe snow storm that night. Rod Stewart and the Faces also on the bill. War was positively mesmerizing. When their set ended it took a few minutes to get reoriented to reality.
@@dizzywilliams3557 There's no bullshit about that ... it is what it is everything out there is pure garbage now... none of these musical artists can light a candle to the artists of yesterday why do you think kids of today are listening to bands from the 70's & 80's you think it's a coincidence that these kids are going back that far to explore real music?
@@tarharqataseti9261 What I call thin music has always been here the difference is money drove the thin to the top. It used to be just a little window dressing.
Forgot about your Birthday Eric, 80 years old my man, so happy birthday. I first heard House of the Rising Sun and I new you were the man. From Animals to Eric Burden and the Animals,War and all of your solo work.Best of the British invasion.
Eric Burden has been one of my favorites since his beginnings. He takes his music to his soul and breathes it out of his heart. I love intense musicians
Arguably the greatest jam band ever! The improv showed the commonality and talent of all on the stage. What they did with this was set the stage for other great bands like Zep, Skynard, Allman Bros, the Dead and others that pulled off great musical improv live in front of the audience. Eric Burdon knew what he was doing when he put together WAR... all very talented but no virtuoso/standouts that could hog the spotlight... no, this was all about the music; greater than any individual musician. That ability to create music on the spot, live... that's an artform if you do it right. Growing up, WAR was one of my greatest influences (them, Zep and Allman's)... the "art of the improv" came from Jazz and Blues and when done right, in Rock and Roll, becomes something of beauty, energy and admiration... THANK YOU @Eric Burdon Tribute Channel 11 for this awesome rare vid... you make my life more complete!
First time Hearing this. You really can't get more dag raunchy badass as this. Absolutely one of the greatest renditions. Just pure blissfull piece of art. One Love y'all 🖤
I met Lonnie Jordan once, the organist. Eric Burdon had quit War and Jordan was the only original left. He was a nice guy, Signed my War album. Nice memory.
Real music right here. Artists today sing (if I can even call it that) over digital beats & samples because they can't play an instrument to save their life. I'm glad my parents were 70's free spirits who brought me up on earthy music.
My parents were not Free spirits.but extremely.intelligent and cooler than i was .I wqs.born the Free.spirit. they hated.Me. everyones gone now. And now just.the World.hates me.and.my free.spirit. fk em

I agree after recently studying his career.
He did his way.
He has swag forever.

Eric was way, way, way underrated!!!One of the most distinctive and recognized voices in music period. War was incredible!!!!!

I saw War about 20 years ago at the Liberty Lunch, Austin, Texas. They played all of the old hits and jammed on them. Played for 2 hours easy. Memorable show.

@@ellenmcintyre1247 Bonsoir Ellen , you were lucky to be there in that fantastic time when people used to fight for each other. A l'époque , je vivais dans mon pays , le Congo en Afrique central et nous étions fanatiques de War et Eric Burdon et je n'oublie pas les Doobie Brothers . Quelle période fantastique de ma jeunesse. Bonsoir depuis Paris ( France ).
I feel like everyone needs to take a moment to appreciate Harold Ray Brown...everyone took a break in the song except him. The man's arms had to be burning banging on the skins non-stop for thirty minutes straight! What a great song, great band and what a gnarly drummer!
Who's the big guy playing percussion? I'm pretty sure he was also in Exuma's band.
@@silverspaceflyer Papa Dee Allen. He was a basketball player (hence, his size) and a percussionist. As far as I can tell, War was his only big claim to fame. He did, however, also play saxophone.
@@tritonogletree2806 Thanks for that. You're right, War was his major claim to fame, but wow, what a phenomenal claim. Sad to read he collapsed on stage in 1988, but at least he passed doing what he loved. Cheers!
@@tritonogletree2806 I'll
@@freemanchee7249 Wha? Did I grammar incorrectly somewhere besides, "Wha?"...which was purposeful?...or are you taking a moment to appreciate?
I was 21, in the Navy, and this was Vietnam Rock. Uh Huh.... Chickin in My hands. Now Im smokin duh stuff, and sipin a beer in 2024, this is mind boggling and pure entertainment with real soul
yes I am Canadian, I love all humans no matter what color, cree or race. Period!!!
love how Eric Burdon improvises with his voice and not to mention the rest of the band improvising, a musical wonder.
Funky blues like to never be seen again...the best of the 70's...a place, time, mind...I was a teenager then smokin the Maui wowie with the Saint Paulie girls and Becks...life was great
Yum becks i was born in 69. I was am hip. Had parents music grand parents music brothers and sisters music. Rock n Roll baby . My generation was Disco!!! And u can guess what happened to my Donna Summer album .with one brother wearing a tshirt w rainbow tape that said Disco Suxx. Lol when i brought home Queens First double album..my family approved. Bought it w change at aWal Mart.
how the audience was so chill is beyond me because i was so on board that i could not have sat
that still!
I'm not sure but in some venues dancing was actually not allowed due to the small size of the space, something about fire codes etc at the time, maybe that was the case here
@@graciemaye6381 or could be fart code
Probably all stoned
Nobody ever since Eric Burdon & WAR reached this intense level of spoul and spirit and rock!
Nobody sings the blues better than Eric Burdon'. I love War too, they are the funkiest mix of artists from way back then. How cool were they? Burdon's songs bring back old memories. Thanks for posting.
One of the greatest collaborations EVER... Eric Burdon & War..... These guys could not have fit in any better then they did with each other.... CLASSIC....

Mr Eric Burdon one of the most underrated vocalist .... he puts mick to shame !! .. and when WAR and eric came together nobody could touch them ... the time they spent together should be a documentary .. they have that special attachment that blends together !!
Lord have mercy my heart!!! Eric is so good-looking and I love his voice🥰🥰🥰😍😊
I was fortunate enough to see Eric Burdon at the Arena in Vienna in 1976 or so. Some time before the gig he was sitting alone in the sun enjoying a drink - still overwhelmed by the encounter - yes, I was a fangirl :o) - I finally "dared" to ask him for an autograph on the backside of a tram ticket (I didn't have anything else), which he gladly gave me. I still cherish it to this day!
Wow, I've never seen Eric Burton, with long hair, just too, Daddy Cool ❤️🎸💃
When Talented Humans come 2gether....
Eric fucking Burdon. The reincarnation of Elmore James singing. The absolute best. This band and him were great
When Grandpa's and Grandma's were cooler than the grandkids! Lol ✌️ ...and still are.
Exactly
Una verdadera JOYA del Rock Británico en México Erick tiene muchos seguidores
War one of the baddest bands of all times no one even comes close never will
Happy Birthday Mr Eric Burdon Master of the Legends of Rock & Blues 🎸🎸🥁🎹🎷
When I was getting ready to go to war in Vietnam in 1964 it was the British Invasion and the Beatles and Rolling Stones were the most 'Popular' bands at the time, and I dug what they were doing BUT Eric Burdon and the Animals were of another level that appealed to my 19 year old soul and nothing has changed. Eric Burdon is still the BEST :)
Yeah from Brasil
Albert Blevins I was 14 in 1973 when the troops came back home from the Vietnam war. And Eric Burdon had that exact same affect on me. I respect him more than any other musician in this world. I love him so much!
Me too! Eric is still my favorite.
@@janicemontanino1134 I was a Bush Pilot in Vietnam listening to Eric and War.
@@BobJones-dq9mx Thanx for your SERVICE. I hope you came home in decent shape. So many didn't. Peace, pal. Always.
Outstanding musicianship from everyone of them, delicious sax solo, and burdon.... a proper fucking rock star

Thank you Eric Burdon! You are fantastic! 🙏😍❤️🤗
Belated birthday wishes❤️
This is one of the gems of youtube. Im not so sure ive ever seen a better ensemble at their peak of prowess. This show rivals about anything done by their peers. Its a shame this will never be on your local classic rock station.
I am 65 old this is amaziing music

Seriously 80? I'm 67 and thought he was just a few years older than me.
I write poems about the guy!!!!! Such a legend Eric is!!
Rest in peace to BB Dickerson!
We luv you!!!
Eric Burdon 80 ... can't be ... his heart is a teenager ...
He was born for THIS
Eric Burden always brings it with the cowbell.
Can't believe i never came across this before,what a collaboration,outstanding .
Can't believe I'm just discovering this now. These guys were on fire
I would not last 5 minutes on those bongos playing a rhythm that hard... One Hell of a percussionist!
that's a conga he's playing
@@machiventa858 Excuse the ignorance...
Any drums really.
WAR with ERIC BURDON playing live in the early seventies...can this ever go wrong?
Seriously, this is something EVERYBODY should watch to fully understand the degree music has fallen into these days!
You said it bro, music is in a sad place these days -- Eric Burdon and War c-o-n-n-e-c-t-e-d with soul.
Mats Nilsson this is the shit! right hear! love this kind of music! for real!
Mats Nilsson : You are so right Mats, sucks that these day's you never see a multi racial band that creates such great music, WAR w/ Eric Burdon belong in The Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame!!
plenty of great music around these days, if you're not too lazy to find it and seek it out.
the record companies are dead. that's the difference. it's not all controlled by old men in suits any more. deal with it, and support your local scene rather than complaining.
@@mj.l There's nothing like this around anymore or if there is they're playing the oldie circuit. This was top 40 music in 1970, all you had to do was turn on the radio in 1970 and just about every song was great in some way or other, I'm not saying you liked everything you heard but it was almost all quality music and played by all humans not computers nd no pitch correcter back then.
I never heard of eric i was listening to the dead and it Popped up. A voice said bet thats fire. And here i am!!!! Listeningon my bose alone here i am.
This band was on fire and Eric, WOW! Eric was possessed! His voice, his charisma, his movement, his natural talent & raw sex appeal off the scale! What a man, what a soul! 🔥🔥🔥
So true Jo! Eric never tries to be anything, he's just having fun. The essence of cool.
Long life Eric Burdon ! Happy birthday !
One of the greatest collabrations ever, The animal.Eric Burdin with his soulful blusy voice with a hell of a band WAR great soul band with great musicans, RIP Charles Miller RIP Papa Dee Aleen
Well said brother rock on
@@markduffield8110 Rock on mate
I went to Jr. High with Charles Miller's son so I knew about the band WAR but, didn't know about the band with Eric Burdon. About 20 years ago a friend gave me a copy of both albums he did with them and I was blown away. Those CD's are always in my car for long road trips. Who else can do a 13 minute version of Paint it Black where it sounds like 3 songs in one?
@@RedBud315 that's cool man you'r goddamn lucky
Высший класс
I saw them in this year in a hall that couldn't have had 200 people in it because of a severe snow storm that night. Rod Stewart and the Faces also on the bill. War was positively mesmerizing. When their set ended it took a few minutes to get reoriented to reality.
Faces rocked.and then...
My dad had this LP of the animals but i never heard Eric with War before. Fuck this guy had an amazing voice and had lots of soul.👍👍👍👍
Mick & Eric were drinking the same juice.
Seeing them singing together would break the universe.
I love Eric Burdon, the White Blues man.
eric burdon has to be one of the top 5 singers of all time if not the best
Most definitely, one of the "soul-funk" originators
Indeed he's one of the British invaiters with Mick Jagger Jhon Lenonn and Roger Daltrey one of the greatest singers songewriters frontmen ever
@@rockybarzini8786 You mean Roger Daltrey, don' t you? ... Take care.
@@marcos9568 Yeah, Thanks for edditing sir
the best musician among singers for sure
Damn, listening to this just shows how far musicianship has dropped.
bullshit
@Ronald Williams Agreed to a degree, musicianship has dropped, compare musicians today to jazz musicians of the past.
Except in metal. They still play really well in metal.
@@dizzywilliams3557 There's no bullshit about that ... it is what it is everything out there is pure garbage now... none of these musical artists can light a candle to the artists of yesterday why do you think kids of today are listening to bands from the 70's & 80's you think it's a coincidence that these kids are going back that far to explore real music?
@@tarharqataseti9261 What I call thin music has always been here the difference is money drove the thin to the top. It used to be just a little window dressing.
Forgot about your Birthday Eric, 80 years old my man, so happy birthday. I first heard House of the Rising Sun and I new you were the man. From Animals to Eric Burden and the Animals,War and all of your solo work.Best of the British invasion.
What a sharp, clean, clear, voice. Perfect for rock, jazz, etc.
No matter the time we have OUR MUSIC to rely on and nobody can take this away from us ❤️
"They Can't Take Away Our Music" is one of their best songs, You probably already knew that.
Рада возможности слушать и видеть легендарную музыку🎉😍❤
Eric Burden has been one of my favorites since his beginnings. He takes his music to his soul and breathes it out of his heart. I love intense musicians
Arguably the greatest jam band ever! The improv showed the commonality and talent of all on the stage. What they did with this was set the stage for other great bands like Zep, Skynard, Allman Bros, the Dead and others that pulled off great musical improv live in front of the audience.
Eric Burdon knew what he was doing when he put together WAR... all very talented but no virtuoso/standouts that could hog the spotlight... no, this was all about the music; greater than any individual musician. That ability to create music on the spot, live... that's an artform if you do it right.
Growing up, WAR was one of my greatest influences (them, Zep and Allman's)... the "art of the improv" came from Jazz and Blues and when done right, in Rock and Roll, becomes something of beauty, energy and admiration...
THANK YOU @Eric Burdon Tribute Channel 11 for this awesome rare vid... you make my life more complete!
Wow, no wonder my dad loved Eric Burdon and the Animals. This guy is AWESOME!
Greetings from Oregon. One of the hardest working bands ever. Thanks. Inspirational.
First time Hearing this. You really can't get more dag raunchy badass as this. Absolutely one of the greatest renditions. Just pure blissfull piece of art. One Love y'all 🖤
While deployed overseas in the 70”s I wore out my War Live vinyl. 🔥🔥🇺🇸
I met Lonnie Jordan once, the organist. Eric Burdon had quit War and Jordan was the only original left. He was a nice guy, Signed my War album. Nice memory.
Too much ! Why isn't this played everywhere everyday all the time ? Its like peace music feel groovy and I love yous. Who wants a hug
Me
can you feel the soul ????
Yes I can feel 😉🥴
Eric Burdon in the 70's.. What a babe ❤
Yes and in The 60s to
@@elisabethaxelsson4736 60s he was too clean cut. Here he looks more dangerous.
Fusso I like both stils on him
Love you Eric. Keep the spirit of the music. Maybe someday people will find a way to get together again. I sure hope so.
Real music right here. Artists today sing (if I can even call it that) over digital beats & samples because they can't play an instrument to save their life. I'm glad my parents were 70's free spirits who brought me up on earthy music.
My parents were not Free spirits.but extremely.intelligent and cooler than i was .I wqs.born the Free.spirit. they hated.Me. everyones gone now. And now just.the World.hates me.and.my free.spirit. fk em
He was great with the animals , but then went on to another level with war , what a combo !.
