Eric Burdon, who came to fame with the legendary animals in the swinging 60s, put the same degree of emotion and expression into his writing as he does into performing. For the first time one of the key figures of the era saw the rise of the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the who, Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix, has written his own story of those times and the result is a unique eyewitness account of some of the most exciting years in pop history.
The cover illustration is by Eric Burdon, as are the two double page illustrations inside.
"The rock world has generated scores of books by music journalists and pop historians but few autobiographies, and here rock-blues singer Burdon, who led the Animals to international fame in the '60s, reveals the inner sanctum of the rock scene in a way that shows the limitations of outsiders' efforts. With telling observations, he chronicles his Newcastle childhood (attending a school sandwiched between a slaughterhouse and a shipyard), London R & B clubs of the early '60s, gigs in the U.S. (where Burdon played a key role in trying to break down racial barriers), orgiastic sex, endless parties and ""years of lunacy,'' recording-business ripoffs and his acquaintance with other stars such as Dylan, Jagger, Lennon, Joplin, Morrison and Hendrix. The author's considerable writing skill makes his escapades especially vivid and captures the winding down of the psychedelic era with hauntingly descriptive details, as, for example, in his portrait of paranoia in Los Angeles after the Sharon Tate murders."
