Book Review: Burdon on LSD
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a super fun read and it took me long enough to find a copy i could afford. But my recommendation comes with a BIG caveat - read it with a grain of salt. I can say that because me and my friends are mentioned in one of Eric's 'stream of consciousness' stories and what he describes is pure fantasy. The characters are right but what he describes never happened. Well, okay, we did sneak up to the 20th floor of the hotel where the Animals were staying...but the rest is totally made up! Still, i'm sure that there are a lot of stories with more validity. I love Eric and his music and first met him when he played at New York City's Paramount theater. My friends and i were kids but we knew talent when we heard it. He was and continues to be, one of the finest blues musicians out there. For a more recent perspective (his writing has improved tremedously too) read his latest "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood". It too is full of fabulous, probably exaggerated, stories, but Eric sure knows how to get your attention. And besides, hearing road stories from a really good racanteur is worth the price of admission. It's like hearing your favorite uncle tell war stories. You know half of it's b*S* but you get sucked in just the same.
