RINGO STARR’S NEW SINGLE- “HERE’S TO THE NIGHTS” — slicethelife
I can’t believe that I haven’t played this one already, but according to my trusty archives, I have not. I never knew there was so much history, so much background to this song, for I thought the Animals were the first to record it and that was that. Oh no … not by a longshot! […]

Greetings & Salutations from the College of Rock n’ Roll Knowledge: 1/26/2021 — #BecomeUngovernable Radio

Hold On (Eric Burdon) — The Humming Moose
Playlist by Algernon Following on from recent lists delving into Beat music, I thought I’d look at one band The Animals or Eric Burdon and the Animals. Burdon was from Newcastle upon Tyne, where the band started. They moved to London in 1964. The Animals performed mostly R&B, rock and blues in later year’s psychedelia. […]
Eric Burdon and The Animals — Window Dresser’s Arms, Pig & Whistle
When this song first came out, I fell in love with it. For a pre-teen, there was so much mysticism and outright coolness to how Eric Burdon wove his tale. Enhancing the experiences with the jazz flute, the woman speaking Spanish, and the rest of War, a spell was woven. The rawness of the chorus […]

Eric Burdon is one of my all-time heroes. I have seen him many times over the years so I couldn’t resist going to see a hometown concert at Newcastle City Hall. Eric Burdon is a legendary figure with a giant, deep, soulful voice. He took The Animals from Newcastle to the top the charts, London […]
