ERIC BURDON & WAR / THE BLACK-MAN'S BURDON

1970  MGM   1st USA PRESS



•••••  A STUNNING COLLABORATION OF MUSICIANSHIP & IDEALS. Absolutely killer Afro-beat/funk/jazz backing by legendary War combined with the soul blues sensibility of Burdon resulted in this legendary release featuring hard driving rhythms & high consciousness/social awareness with takes on "Paint It Black" along with extended jams "Bare Back Ride" and "Spirit."  A simply beautiful collaboration of a past time we should appreciate and reflect upon today. CRUCIAL.
