Eric Burdon

In 1976, Eric Burdon was in a fascinating phase of his career, performing live in Cologne at WDR Studio-L. This was right around the time he released the album 'The Black-Man's Burdon'—a double album that showcased a fusion of sounds influenced by Burdon's ever-evolving artistic direction. The live performance features his rendition of 'One More Cup Of Coffee', highlighting his distinctive voice and the interplay with his dynamic band, including Mike Carr on keyboards and Robert Ahwai on guitar. What's noteworthy is that this concert came during a period when Burdon was blending elements of rock, blues, and funk, making his music resonate with both old fans and new ones alike. His relentless energy on stage often left audiences in awe, demonstrating just how deeply connected he was to the music he performed, even years after his initial rise to fame with The Animals.
