I don't care what does other say, I like it very much. There were versions I didn't like from Burdon, but it's very good in my opinion. Why is that matters if he doesn't sing it like 40 years ago?

The greatest blues singer and the greatest jazz organist in ROCK history together - AWESOME!!!

shit

Brian Auger's Band is probably one of the most solid I've seen and heard. Not so sure 'bout this one though. Burdon's "Sixteen Tons" version is a bit better than this remake. Sometimes you just get what you get.

[JerrySeinfeld666]

I cant beleive what I'm hearing. That was brilliant in my opinion, I'm a massive eric burdon fan and so far this probably my favorite live performance of the song. And as for you williehackit, u should be shot. He's made his mark on the music world and has nothing left to prove. I can see how people dont like the changes but you've gota realise eric has a very bluesy style and the blues was created by improv. N thats wat hes doin here.

[hoferhammer]

when youre a massiv fan of him then you like the original version of that song better then this stupid overselling performance right. this performance is all but not really brilliant

[williehackitt]

WHAT A POSER

[Anoint2]

When "surfer music" died in '64.."The Animals"..and "The Turtles" were the first rock bands that caught my ear....

[JulianThomePictures]

I think The Animals brought the punky style in...

[Anoint2]

I like it....Since when does a singer or band have to sing exactly the same way..time after time... 10,20,30,40 years?? Voices and style change. It's also obvious that they are having a good time. That's all that should matter.

[mileyoreilly07]

thats eric burdon???

[witchums]

Sound quality isn't all that great. Eric Burden's performance could have been better...definitely not at the top of his form here...too bad it didn't show Brian Auger to best advantage.

[fegofikarreturns]

Real crappy! An embarrassment!

[downbytheseine]

James I agree with you. At times he will do a great job. But very often he screams and changes the original arrangements and replaces them with weaker versions. A shame!

[jameslopate]

"this is a very poor version of a great song,burdon is just shouting"

This all he does since the 70s. Check out his studio album with covers of the stones and of course house of the rising sun (done sometime in the seventies). All he does now is change the way he does house of the rising sun and other tunes. He's been doing this shit for a while. It really pisses me off. Because he really butchers a lot of his classics. I never thought in my life I would say this.

[zimmiesgirl]

OMG, this is so NOT the Burdon of the 60s. Even in their 1st cover of the song, its' entire Animals identity lied in the amazing guitar playing of Hilton Valentine. This is funny, but sad, and ohhhh sooo BAD.

[yossarian20081]

@zimmiesgirl Hilton was back with Burdon in '08. I saw that lineup of "Eric Burdon and the Animals" and it was a great show. Unfortunately it looks like Hilton's out of Eric's band (again, haha) now.

this is a very poor version of a great song,burdon is just shouting

[JulianThomePictures]

I like this funny version!

[purplehazemind]

I think, he was stoned on best weed, after 3 nights of drinking. Very relaxed and amused. Eric is a real rocker and he don´t care about singing on shitty, commercial TV. For me, is that performance more a funny one. Eric "Bourbon" is an authentic artist with up and downs, like most people. Respect for his honesty!

[klaustrophobia2007]

i simply find the keyboarder amazing

[JulianThomePictures]

BRIAN AUGER

[JulianThomePictures]

1992 or 1993.

[LynnCaldwell1954]

Loved every minute without question, as I was fortunate to have grown up listening to both Burdon & Auger. I was truly lucky to have met Larry Wilkins at a Burdon show in 1995-96, what a gifted, talented, cordial, honorable man and what a grounded individual. I so sad to here of his passing in 1997. What a great lost to this world, maybe more than even Mr. Wilkins may have known.

Thanks for being who you still are and were. RIP

[mavizzle]

@LynnCaldwell1954 yea thats actually my dad, still have his axe on my wall to this day

Be sure not to push the wrong button when quoting - else you might end up like Ringo in the sea of monsters

[TiggerScotland]

Hey, I gave this one 5!! Whenever it was, it was great ;)

[EricFanIngo]

Fuck! Wanted to give 5 stars, but it seems I rated only 2! Larry ruled!

[IrisPatricia]

A great performance, but for sure NOT from 2004. At that time Larry Wilkins (RIP), the guitar player, was already dead for 7 years. Also Eric and Brian didn't work together anymore even longer. Howevr, thanks a lot for this vid! :-)

[overdue3]

He's yelling "2000" at the end, so I'm assuming that was the year. Looked good for 60. Not really sure what happened since then, 'cause he looks like he's 80 now. Great video!

[overdue3]

Although, if the guitar player has been dead since 1997, it probably would have been difficult for him to make it to this performance in 2000, so maybe mid-90's?

[IrisPatricia]

I saw Eric and Brian in March 1993. And the CD "Access all areas" also is from that year. They didn't stay together for a very long time, so I guess this video might be fron 1992 or 1993.

[JulianThomePictures]

This was recorded 1992 or 1993. They said "World wide peace for the year 2000" = 2000 =Millenium.

it wasnt the year 2000. eric burdon was always for peace!
