When are you coming to the San Diego area? I love your music and that voice of yours.. You have the most sexiest voice ever. Tina

We went to the March 20th performance in Tahoe. I have seen Eric perform for at least 6 times! I wish he would do his songs the way he recorded them rather than jazz/regae etc, etc, His songs are so popular because of his strong delivery and timing. Next year call it the "Going Straight Tour" and do most of your big hits they way you did it!

My daughter is only 20 and I wasn't sure if Eric was on her radar but, when I told who we were seeing, she lit up. She responded "DAD! Are you kidding? I have Spill the Wine,… Continue

I saw your very first appearance on the first American tour at the Circle Star Theater in San Carlos, California in 66'. It was the " British Invasion" , and boy, did it change my life!

Marianna,

I always enjoy Eric Burdon shows.

If I was to bring my "The Black-Man's Burdon" vinyl record jacket,

Listening to a live recording from 2/24/06 on Sirius chanel 16 (Deep Tracks)....

Very good stuff! Eric still has it going on!

Calexico where playing in Sydney last night and they where really good. I could easily hear Eric recording with them for a few songs. Bring it on. Pity no eric at Byron Bay festival this year.

Both Eric Burdon and War ushered in the winds of change in rock music in 1969 when the Californian based former Animals lead singer teamed up with the southern Californian multi-ethnic band whose mix of funk, blues, rock and soul hadn't up to that point been appreciated beyond the confines of being an accomplished backing band in southern California.



But with the backdrop of the Vietnam War and… Continue
