Eric Burdon was since 1964 part of the British Invasion and produced hits through the 70s and 80s. With his popular formations The Animals and Eric Burdon & The Animals he had some No. 1 hits, most famous 
House Of The Rising Sun, San Franciscan Nights. The Animals were the third biggest band in the world, and bassist Chas Chandler as a producer later pushed some of the most important bands of the seventies, Slade.
Eric Burdon, after some troubles, moved to California, where he made some records with War, a mix of west coast, jazz, blues, and gospel music. Paint It Black. He is also known for his aggressive screaming.
He’s definitely one of the most important people in music history, while recording the first #1 hit with a length more than four minutes, “House of the Rising Sun”, the most popular anti-vietnam song “We Gotta Get out of this Place”, the first song recorded in stereo, “Sky Pilot” and the first latin rap in pop music, “Spill the Wine”. His self-written rock song “Year of the Guru” (1968) proves that he created the first rap rock-song. His political environment can be seen in his multi-racial project with the band War from late 1969 to early 1971. In 2008 he reunited with the band at the Royal Albert Hall in London.
Without his experimental vocals, hip hop, rap, heavy metal, rock, pop and rnb would have a completely different face.
In the 70s, 80s and 90s he made solo career, Woman Of The Rings,Power Company, Darkness Darkness, No More Elmore, Bird On The Beach, Dey Won’t, I Used To Be An Animal, Run For Your Life, Sixteen Tons and Kingsize Jones.
Later he was engaged in local environment politics and it seems he had finished his music career. But then he recorded a astonishing blues album in 2006: Soul of a Man.

Eric, thank you for the songs that you've written. They make me fly away from this world while i'm listening to them. I stop thinking about anything and start relaxing and having pleasure. I wish you all the best things because you are worthy(deserve) it =) I will love your creativity and voice until the death.

Hells yeah. Eric Burdon and War's cover of "Paint It Black" is absolutely amazing... should be "required listening." I would love to see him in person.
