Vic Briggs died 4 months ago, June of '21 - arranger of Burdon's masterpiece tribute to this festival & one of the grooviest songs ever recorded - cheers to you Vic for enriching our lives with that incredible contribution to music

Eric had such a strong, sexy voice, absolutely love his music. Also with the band, War! Wish I’d been born 10yrs earlier and experienced ‘67 Monterey Pop, the festival of love~music~peace 🎶 San Francisco 🎶☮️ 😻

Wish Eric had done "when I was young". I'm not hip, but Paint it Black stinks with excess. Don't worry Kitty, you got to feel the dying embers of Disco excess. Where is my red star? Never, none.

I was born in S.F. but was only 10 when this happened! But 3 years later, I was hip. 🎉

*What A Band!!*

[@a_missippian]

Briggs died this past June - incredible guitarist & arranger, esp on "Monterey"

[@reckless-ramblers]

Every band evolves, moves on. Speaking as a gigging musician, you get tired playing the same songs show after show. New material is what keeps you going, keeps things fresh in your mind. Hendrix evolved masterfully, he was tired of playing the same "hits" all the time. At Monterey Hendrix exploded onto the scene and was fresh and new, Eric Burdon had been doing it for years up to that point. The Animals were part of the 'hit making' "British Invasion" like so many other bands of the era. Eric Burdon is a phenomenal talent that was true to his love of blues and R&B. Yes this is from the psychedelic era and listening to a painfully out of tune "San Francisco Nights" was not the best but "Ginhouse Blues" & "Hey Gyp" are classic examples of the great Eric Burdon energy. Very few people will probably agree with me, I love their US vinyl album "Animalism" from about 1966 the best. Overlooked and not loaded with radio hits but OMG an incredible recording - 'Going Down Slow' 'Shake' (by Sam Cooke) 'Hit the Road Jack' 'Louisiana Blues' 'Hey Gyp' 'Smokestack Lightning' 'All Night Long' (by Frank Zappa) 'Rock Me Baby' (BB King) 'Lucille' (Little Richard)...this was top shelf through out, great musicians/arrangements/vocals/emotion/vibe. From Burdon's psychedelic time "Every One of Us" was a very good album too, better than the "Sky Pilot" material.... my two cents.

[@eddiecoyle9152]

*@RRFOLK: Right On!!---Eric was way ahead of curve and I totally agree with your view of Eric Burdon and The New Animals!*

[@kaboomerty1638]

i’m 19 and missed this music during its relevancy and when it could be compared to music released alongside it, so even out of touch music is just as unique to me as a lot of the more experimental or forward pushing music, def agree that animalistic is underated, had a really good consistent sound and i liked it as a whole more then the original animals others albums minus maybe animal tracks

[@KittyGrizGriz]

Love Eric Burdons body of work especially with the band War. Sky Pilot gets me in the feels. Eric was a phenomenal blues singer omg!!

[@elisabethaxelsson4736]

I love that Eric did when he was whit the original Animals, but a artist ned to do and traey new tings i understand that. But for me Eric is at his best when he sings blues ,rytmen blues

Thanks for posting. Often wanted to have the opportunity to hear the whole Monterey Pop Festival gig by Eric and his band. I have always been a huge fan of The Animals.

My friend, there is a movie bout Monterrey, Like later they did the Film bout Woodstock. And there is a Double CD. Box to buy, included all the live stuff from the doctor of music, Mr. Eric Burdon .. praises, aaron

[@jameskennedy721]

Not every 1964 English band could handle the shift to 1967 psychedelia . Eric Burden - with some new Animals on board - was a master of many styles . Im still waiting for the film of his whole set . How he , the Doors , Love and Led Zepplin missed the Woodstock Festival I will never understand .

No Chas Chandler-long gone by this time, to manage Hendrix, who of which played headlined this concert. Thus, Chas was probably there in person, watching his former bandmates play.

His former bandmates weren't there. Eric Burdon & The Animals was a completely new band, not featuring any of The Animals except Burdon.

What a waste, they didn't even play one of those songs that made them a rock legend. Eric Burton, the drugs really screwed up his mind. Shame.

[@ilovealaska2000]

@@derkommissar785 that's why they crashed, Sky pilot was more aligned with the original sound they had. Burton made bad choices long after that.

There psychedelic stuff was a beautiful era, you had stuff like all is one, winds of changes, a girl sandoz, and their cover of Coloured Rain.

[@ilovealaska2000]

@@JJFrostMusic funny the songs they still play on the radio, are the ones he walked away from. The ones you mention don't get air time. Drugs sure screwed up everything.

[@JJFrostMusic]

@@ilovealaska2000 you know what, I don't give a fuck what is played on the radio, Eric also went on to boost the career the band War, spill the wine is is still being played. But anyways, those psychedelic songs are master pieces loved by deep cut music lovers, I like his early stuff too but in the late sixties in the time of psychedelia, you have to go progressive and not be a juice box. Eric burdon experimented with his craft and I respect that. Drugs did him great!

[@ilovealaska2000]

@@JJFrostMusic War kicked Eric to the curb.He had nothing after that. I grew up with the drug era. Drugs shortened the road for most groups. They couldn't even do pull off Woodstock 50. Eric Burton is a classic example of a has been.
