In these more cynical times, it is easy to see this seminal album in a somewhat ambivalent light...Everybody's favourite Geordie hellraiser, Eric Burdon caught on the cusp between being Britain's bluesmeister supreme and being Hitler out of The Producers? Surely not! yet there is so much more here...two international hit singles, garage blues and psychedelic jams to match anyone. Produced by bizarrely unsung Dylan/Zappa/Velvets producer Tom Wilson...OK, so the dramatic recitations in a Brian Blessed meets Byker stylee have dated a wee bit, but this is as amazing a forgotten gem as the 2 albums THEM made on Tower around the same time...yep, that good!
