Burdon, Eric - Medley: When I Was Young / War Child Lyrics

Saw them open for The Sensational Alex Harvey Band In 74/75. What an incredible evening. Both bands destroyed! Eric had this tambourine type thing filled with about 20 incense sticks. He would wave it around once in a while. I copied him with my group Glorionblak. Gives a great atmosphere to the proceedings. I had black lights on stage too. We had this album the day it came out. Saw him on Don Kirshner’s . We went crazy with all the delays and echoes. He had this stomp box. I had to get one too. I took a lot from him. Someone said I sound like him too. My greatest compliment ever! Fucking Eric!! Someone also said I sound like Lou Reed. Didn’t care for that comparison 😢

yes very well done meny years agow ,,, nikos tarantella taverna xersonisos kreta

One of my favorite albums. - When I was yong too, Thank you for sharing.

DRUMS INCRIBLE'.

Those screams! My God.

I knew Eric Burton could easily outrange Jagger. I love Burdon's voice when he calmly but powerfully throws down that groovin' bluesy-ness! Love how he rolls.

++++++++++++++!!!!!!!)))))))

Amazing

One of my very favorite albums

Back in 1974, when this came out, I wore it out.

ΜΕΓΑΛΕ ΕΡΙΚ..ΑΔΕΛΦΕ ΜΑΣ..!!

as a rockinroll kid growing up in the 70s,hard to imagine i never knew about it until spring 2012//awesome record//still discovering even at 53.

This album was a favorite on the old WNEW102.7 fm back in the day when they were the only Rock & Roll station to play full length records and very rarely repeated songs in a 24 hr. period as the music library was open to the DJ'S choices.
R.I.P. Scott, Allison and the rest of the gang who are still alive.

this song everytime makes me cry. A GREAT GREAT ALBUMMMMMMMMM

cannot call it metal. but no way can call it blues. It is what it is GREAT MUSICAL GENIOUS.

I felt in love with this Grate Album from the eric burdon band,(Sun Secret), befror 33 years,and i´m still in love.tanks a trillion trillion times youtube and dinikki08

Love it!!!

excellent

Melhor fase dele!

Yeah this is METAL..... lololololololol.......

@JulianThomePictures Yeah well like I said.... your obviously a nothing nobody who thinks he's somebody .... : )

Holy shit! Julian Thorme used to be a music friend of mine on EB's old website, Last.FM and other places - you are the first one I've ever seen to dis him. I lost contact when EB's website changed and my life changed as well. I'm getting back to EB now and reading this? OMG!! Julian is a good human being that has a deep love and respect for EB - and I still do myself. I can't believe what I'm reading right now!

@JulianThomePictures First of all I don't care who you are & you know nothing either I don't care what you do where you do it or why you do it, I don't care if your a musician or a Animal Trainer I don't care what your name is or why you have that name I don't even care that your alive I don't know you & I don't want to know you & thats right I called you a moron. I like Eric Burdon I said it's not metal & thats good enough for me I don't care who the hell you are pal....

@ogrebattle22763 One of truly all time fav. to crank up on vinyl late night in a dim lit surrounding. Very underrated album that more ppl should know about. Keep rockin!!! \_/

@osiruskat Mt cousin turned me on to this album way back in the day... been hooked to it ever since!

@osiruskat It is absolutely not metal but this moron tried arguing with me above a few months back it is definitely heavy blues oriented rock without a doubt but metal it is not! Rock on.... by the way I love the song Letter From The County Farm off this album....

@ogrebattle22763 Eric Burden is not metal but this album I would definitely classify as heavy rock. It was his only heavy album...I used to play the hell out of it as loud as possible. Glad you and others besides myself like this album.

thx for posting...

I used to cruise around in my Mustang totally baked listening to this as loud as the stereo could handle. Pigeon hole it any way you want... I call it AWESOME!

For: New Orleans

"My second favorite song in my life and times"

Rock and roll is only the blues ripped of and amplified.

Whos the bass player???????
Great bass line.....

This is METAL folks....LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL....

@JulianThomePictures Yes of course so because metal bands cover this particular song by him it has to be metal right! People who call him blues are wrong REALLY when he was with the animals they were metal i suppose... when he sang with war they were metal i suppose & every song that he sings on this album is metal too right - your smoking crack aren't you...

@JulianThomePictures What??????? Metal???????
