Eric Burdon - Words and Music - 2013
Eric Burdon has always had one of the most distinctive voices in Rock 'n' Roll. As the lead singer of The Animals, he presented a style and sound unlike any of the other British Invasion bands. A young Bruce Springsteen was watching him perform on the Ed Sullivan Show back in 1964, and he told the SXSW audience in last year's keynote address just how influential Eric and The Animals would come to be in shaping his future career.
