What a classic! Eric Burdon is also the lead singer of the "Animals"

[@CuriousGeorge1111]

Famous for House of the Rising Sun, an absolute classic.

[@teimonkauppa0909]

Always has baffled me that he is British, great singer

[@bernicemoore5182]

The man started out singing blues music and his idols back in the 50s & 60s were American black artists.

[@janishaldeman3339]

War such a great diverse band.... Slipping Into Darkness, Low Rider, Cisco Kid. Critical pieces of musical history.

[@gpxo11]

Also All Day Music, why Can't We Be friends and Summer

[@amjrpain919]

"The World is a Ghetto"!

[@Greg-io1ip]

You know it. War should be played more often. Because less war might be the result.

[@johnwriter8234]

​@Greg you WIN!

[@richsmith6422]

The singer is Eric Burdon, singer of the Animals....listen to the whole album Eric Burdon Declares WAR

[@jeffrubinelectronics]

Beautifully perfect marriage of Eric and War...to this day, a classic.

[@realbser1956]

This is a deep catalog of music. You may have heard their song The World is as Ghetto before. It’s a classic and well worth a reaction. Thanks! ✌️

[@amosglitterz2649]

There's an up-tempo 'Ghetto' on Music Band 2 album. 13 min. instrumental banger!

[@kbrewski1]

One of the great hippy funky tracks of the early 70s. Love how weird this was with the background voices etc. Great underrated tune (the long version, I thought there was a longer version on the album). I bet this song was playing during a lot of early 70s orgies!

[@anthonyblakely399]

Great Song!!! Definitely a Classic!!! Eric Burdon..lead singer and frontman of The early 60's group "The Animals" creates a band called "War." Actually, discovered this band and they became good friends and then they decided to make music and albums and songs together. Next reaction should be "Tobbacco Road."

[@martyjansing2675]

And not just any version... must be Live 1970. Live always shows real abilities.

[@saxworthmusic]

You're thinking about the song Low Rider by War

[@michaelgray4964]

Their "All Day Music" album is a stone classic. Great old school R & B.

[@jowsmith1904]

war is another deep fire filled rabbit hole.

[@harrylime5715]

Their song “magic mountain” is an overlooked classic.

[@astroteech]

Hell yah. Takes me back to my late teens. Eric Burdon and War! Know your music history. Look up "Low Rider".

[@roadkill7314]

Absolutely iconic!

[@edmundhenry5095]

Eric "House of the Rising Sun" Burdon!

[@brendawoodson3230]

Eric Burdon

[@platterjockey]

Yup. Eric Burdon, the guy sang the lead on that song, is White.

[@lesblatnyak5947]

Nice gentlemen taking me back to the greatest time to be alive. Never locked our doors in Toronto and gas was 20 cents an imperial gallon, 10% more then a Yankee gallon 😮

[@baileyride]

Just so freaking good! Thanks

[@jimwilcox2964]

Low Rider was the War song that got the most airplay around central iowa

[@d4anzig]

A song about shooting heroin veiled in poetry gotta love the music from that era!!

[@scottmatzeder9162]

Eric Burdon is a Legend, He was in the Animals, widely known for the Epic Classic song House of the Rising Sun!

[@JimmyRJump]

As a kid (13 or 14, back in the early seventies) I bought the single (45rpm vinyl) called "The Cisco Kid" which had "Beetles In The Bog" as a B-Side. I liked the latter far better than the A-Side and it got me hooked on heavy funk. I mean, as the hard-rock kid I thought I was, those bass lines couldn't be denied, that hard way of pronouncing the lyrics had to be heard, the drums and percussion couldn't be denied, and I was hooked. I walked around in a Harlem shuffle, although I was from rural Belgium and never ever heard of anything remotely similar to Harlem, but the steps were there, the swag was in the hips and the step was right in rhythm. Later I found out the Burdon guy also sang in The Animals and that opened yet other doors for my ears and brain to comprehend. Cheers lads. You guys are awesome. I have close to twenty-six thousand records but it still pleases me to no end when I hear stuff I like commented on some fifty-odd years after I heard that stuff for the first time. And what is most pleasing is that you guys also like what you hear. I appreciate the hell out of you.

[@FUBAR1986]

Man, are you guys bringing it, thank you for this one. It’s been a minute.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Sammylu-greenbeatsred]

Eric Burdon was lead singer for The Animals. They were part of the British Invasion in the 60's with quite a few classic hit songs. When Eric made this song with War that was our intro to War back in 1970.

[@dannycasson1551]

War is worthy of a deep dive or rabbit hole or whatever you want to call it!

[@tonyfleck3029]

War ! A Great Band!!! Sort of got their kickoff with 'Eric Burdon ' from the 'Animals 'the vocals ! There's a Fantastic Live version version on Utube from, from an early 70s German TV series 'Beat Club ' really good audio and filming, so many Bands on this TV show Check them out, you'll absolutely be blown away by the talent from back in the day!!!. X

[@tinicum54]

“The song came from a tipped-over bottle in a recording studio and developed out of a jam session. But the spilling of the wine became quite a ceremony with the band. Promoters would leave bottles of red California wine backstage. . . “What we never seemed to have was a corkscrew, but I discovered that these bottles were easy to get into if you just plunged your middle finger into the cork. The trick was placing your mouth over the bottle to catch the cheap plonk as it erupted. It soon became a backstage event, this ‘spilling of the wine.’”

[@ericcohen4613]

The live version of this song is a banger

[@anthonydraine4875]

Thee flute on 💪💪💪💪

[@skydog6376]

Spill the wine, take that pearl ✌️

[@827dusty]

Eric Burden is singing. He was the front man for the early 60s British Rock/Blues Band "The Animals." They sang "House of The Riising Sun," "It's My Life" and many more hit songs. Eric Burden also sang "Sky Pilot," another early 70s song about the Vietnam war. Eric sang many Muddy Waters and early Blues songs from the great Black Blues artists of the 1920s and 30s. Eric is one of the great artists that came in on the wave of artists and Bands, known as "The British Invasion," with the Rolling Stones, and The Beatles among others. Eric must be almost 80 years old now.

[@danw2276]

saw war live, great. But here ERIC takes over. Dude rocks and his voice is so strong and electrified there nobody like him. LOVE THE ANIMALS!!!!!

[@johnshannon9656]

Great.

[@paulfedor9828]

Band is "War" famous Los Angeles band

[@kianpa1]

So good. ❤

[@sonicspectrumradio]

I dig all of your reactions.

[@jonathansmith3742]

All time classic. Great groove.

[@johndrake3472]

There’s a live version of this that’s great

[@onemotherpucker]

Unique stuff. 🙃👍

[@jimmiranda7181]

Brown Sound So Cal car cruisin' culture of the late 60s and 70s

[@taylorrenee5939]

Eric Burdon is so hot

[@gregoryfinn9018]

Nice song, EB waa very involved in getting several bands discovered. BTW need go down the Rolling Stones rabbit hole starting with Can You Hear Me Knocking

[@AjaxCaper]

If your dad didn't have the War album, you probably have not heard the long version of The World is a Ghetto. Cool sax solo in the middle.

[@Greg-io1ip]

The live version (has some video effects) is fantastic. Such a cool funky band. Eric Burdon is really a visionary. Tons of soul and funk he turned into rock. Or vice versa?

[@2869may]

Speaking of Santana... Check out "Winning"... Great song..! Also speaking of the flute.... Check out some Jethro Tull...!

[@jimmoore8951]

The original all stars from Long Beach, War actually had more success (though this was their biggest single) after their rock star singer, Eric Burdon, left. Their distinctive sound featured Lee Oskar on harmonica, a plethora of hits in the 70s and some memorable lyrics and hooks.

[@chadheckman2693]

I bought War Greatest Hits back in the 70's and played the H-E-double hockey sticks out of it! Every song was good! One of my favorite versus: "The low, low rider rides a little higher". Enjoy! All Day Music, Slippin' Into Darkness, The World Is A Ghetto, The Cisco Kid, Gypsy Man, Me And Baby Brother, Southern Part Of Texas, Why Can't We Be Friends?, Low Rider, Summer

[@AndrewLeigh-v1l]

CHARLES MILLER ON FUNKY FLUTE❤ WELL DONE YOU UYS FOR A FEATURE ON WAR ❤😂

[@baileyride]

Also check out the Animals with EB on vocal

[@salmuscles]

War... “the world is a ghetto” Is one of the greatest songs in music history... please

[@tokyosteve5187]

The World Is A Ghetto, Billboard’s best-selling album of 1973, should have all by its lonesome landed War a spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Always thought that if Lonnie could swallow his pride and reconcile with his brothers, they would be in. Lonnie played one of my all-time favorite features on keyboard: for exactly one minute starting at the 3:14 mark in the 7:52 length version of Deliver the Word.

[@willblood7082]

Fun fact: the "Pearl" is a metaphor for the clitoris.

[@AW11-e4h]

🤘🤘

[@grandwazoodebris1015]

Your Dad's got killer taste. Not a naff one yet.

[@jowsmith1904]

and then theres mandrills "fencewalk"

[@mateostaplez7497]

You may have heard Eric Burdon sing House of the Rising Sun or We Gotta Get Out of this Place when he was lead singer of the Animals: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGXFd6SNlMqoaKs

[@mikecavaretta2621]

I’d love to see you react to War’s “The World is a Ghetto” - the full length album version, rather than the single/greatest hits version.

[@djl9919]

I sang this song at a karaoke while back. The flute really rounded out this tune, do you think? Rock on Airplay Beats #6

[@williamlovett619]

👍

[@bernicemoore5182]

There are 2 versions

[@1perfectpitch]

You need the video.

[@timgrady4630]

Over the vibe Target on this one .

[@garyking6519]

You thought it was gonna be War "Low Rider"

[@garyking6519]

But if not, you should!

[@garyking6519]

An "Cisco Kid" and "The World Is A Ghetto" and on and on and on

[@miketracy1064]

Iowrider is the song your thinking of.?

[@tedthonn3026]

I want to meet your Dad for lunch and drinks!

[@jimmoore8951]

I’m in too… but in his garage with a bottle of wine in a brown paper bag and some All Day Music

[@AirplayBeats]

I gotta show him this one.

[@misiuhagen4926]

The live version of this is better!!

[@benhinds2971]

The song on the other side of that single "Magic Mountain" is even better than this one.

[@happymethehappyone8300]

WAR "Low Rider",, "The Cisco Kid",, "The World Is A Ghetto",, "Slippin' Into Darkness",, "Gypsy Man",, "All Day Music",, "Summer",, "Me And Baby Brother",, "Why Can't We Be Friends",, "Four Cornred Room",, "City, Country, City"

[@kathybwell]

Great suggestions! My favorites are All Day Music and Slippin Into Darkness

[@John_Chu]

In 1968, Eric Burdon (The Animals) and his producer Jerry Goldstein saw a group called Nightshift (from Long Beach) playing at The Rag Doll in North Hollywood, backing Hall of Fame defensive end Deacon Jones (yes he sang as a side hustle). They decided to form War and gigged around SoCal until they went into the studio to record their debut album (this was the single from it).

[@michaelkeefe8494]

War, a Cali funk band with a Swedish harmonica player (Lee Oskar), joined here by Brit singer Eric Burdon (of the Animals). It's like the UN of funkiness.

[@jacqueline4514]

Yes!! So many classics from WAR; you hit the nail on the head; a Latin rock sound. "Cisco Kid", "Low Rider", "Why Can't We Be Friends"; love them all. Can you tell I bought a WAR greatest hits CD in the 90's 😂.

[@pb68slab18]

I bought a WAR 8-track in the 70s!

[@jacqueline4514]

@@pb68slab18 That’s awesome!

[@AjaxCaper]

And their song Summer.

[@NathanielHarari]

“..an overfed, long-haired, leapin’ gnome…” - one of the best and weirdest lines in a rock song ever. 👍

[@bofusnco]

I was friends with the bass player BB Morris Dickerson. He passed last year sadly. Check out Tobacco Road from the Eric Burdon Declares WAR...Amazing

[@russelbarnes7235]

The Isley Bros have a version of this song. You probably heard it. The House of the Rising Sun is Eric Burdons most recognized song, but this is nice also. I enjoyed your reaction.

[@thatmanstumototours2270]

Eric Burdon was Eric Burdon. WAR was one of the finest bands ever assembled and their catalogue stands up to anyone's...

[@mikewarker4445]

Guys do War The world is a ghetto, Cisco kid, summer

[@sjd5750]

Lowrider, too.

[@jimmoore8951]

All Day Music, Slipping Into Darkness…

[@humpy936]

There is a great live version of this you should watch, it’s actually better than the studio version.

[@dianemiller3040]

Still sounds as good as it did over a half century ago. Love the flute! (And yes, I am a Jethro Tull fan).

[@jowsmith1904]

this was wars introduction to the public, albeit with eric burdon on the mic..i loved it saw war in 74 at the universal amph...good times ;)

[@johncomito7676]

Spill the wine, take that pearl, refers to a woman losing her virginity.

[@klb3293]

It’s about cunnilingus

[@russellgil8232]

I thought it was about a clumsy waiter who stole a woman’s necklace.

[@Eb_160]

From 1968-1978 was the absolute peak for a lot of things....the generation born 1935-1965 were using alot more of their brains lol.

[@MadisonD941]

Eric Burdon is another rabbit hole. "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" with The Animals.

[@doriwiljt]

Pre teen memories. Always loved this song

[@suecook1326]

Maybe you remember the lead singer from The House Of The Rising Sun by the Animals? Eric Burdon is great!

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

That's Eric Burdon singing.

[@ZEPnALE]

For more Eric Burdon, try "House of the Rising Sun" by the Animals. For more War, try "Low Rider" and "Why Can't We Be Friends."

[@daviddragavon7555]

Back in the day, (Lord, I am old!) It was not uncommon for studios to give new bands a lift up by collaborating with a more famous fish to get it started. At the time, the vocalist was a very big fish.

[@caryriggs5719]

Who is that singing? So funny. Only the legendary Eric Burton. House of the Rising Sun. Ring any bells gents?

[@Frankincensedjb123]

Good lord, just another awesome song by one more great band in a cavalcade of 70s excellence. The creativity, musicianship, variety, and craftsmanship of the music coming out of the 70s really blows my mind, more so in retrospect than upon initial listen. Many years of weak music sure shows up that contrast that the greatness of the 70s provides. Amazing.

[@johnlillis1161]

the singer is Eric Burdon fron The Animals you should give them a listen House Of The Rising Sun or Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood or When I Was Young

[@fastcakes]

Maybe the song it reminds you of is "Oya Como Va" (spelling?) by Santana

[@joelliebler5690]

Big hit , a classic by one of the best known lead vocalist of the sixties into the early 1970’s.

[@michaelkeefe8494]

Try Slipping Into Darkness for more War.

[@williamweiss6128]

Yes!!! I was a kid when this came out. Still love it. Sky Pilot, another favorite.

[@victorjohnson7512]

War also played with 'tower of power' horn section on a lot of stuff.

[@ericreents4553]

You're dad knows goo music

[@elmerkilred159]

"I was taken to The Hall of the Mountain King." - Eric Burdon 1970 'In the Hall of the Mountain King,' is a piece of orchestral music composed by Edvard Grieg in 1875. The Electric Light Orchestra has a cover of it from 1973. It's been sampled 72 times, and covered at least 28 times.(The Who, Rainbow, Apollo 100, Trent Reznor...)

[@kathybwell]

So glad you're reacting to WAR! Love WAR and their extensive, deep and sweet collection! And yes, they're a Chicano band out of LA. Suggestions to try - All Day Music, Summer, Low Rider, and one of the funkiest songs ever - Slippin into Darkness 🔥😍🔥

[@KevinRCarr]

That's Eric Burdon singing. You know, The singer of The Animals, House of the Rising Sun fame.

[@holysmokes5817]

"Spill the wine, dig that girl...!!" YEAH.. 70's. A time and place to be sure... Cheers 🍄🌲🍄✨💥🌈
