    The calming effect of music on animals is amazing. The YouTube algorithm’s working overtime throwing things at me this morning, but I’m not complaining. This is probably the most beautiful thing you’ll see today…

    The prompt is Ride

    War, “Low Rider” from "Why Can't We Be Friends?" 1975

    #EricBurdon was the front man for #TheAnimals, part of the 1960s #BritishInvasion of U.S. popular music. Sharing a love of the blues with many of their compatriots, after a string of hits and lineup changes and Eric’s move to #SanFrancisco, their music became more #psychedelic.

    With the rest of his Animal bandmates still based in the UK, Eric joined with a group of #SouthernCalifornia musicians who had been playing #funk infused music to form #EricBurdonandWar, best known for the wonderfully odd spoken-word hit Spill the Wine. Burdon and the band parted ways, and the band developed more Latin flavor as War.

    #LowRider slows and strips funk down to the bare bones - its chassis, if you will. I knew nothing of the #Chicano car culture it celebrates when its spare, metallic percussion, pumping #BassLine, and seductive vocals drew me in.

  9. Para los que piensen que las chupas vaqueras son de los 80: en 1965 ya eran históricas, beibeeees. Y si no, mirad la portada del "Rubber Soul" de #TheBeatles.

    This #photo is mine, from this past summer in #London.

    Also channeling London, I recalled this perfect song accompaniment for "Colored Rain" - by the great #Traffic

    I was surprised to see both the title image & who was covering the song here, another legend.

    Song by #Traffic as performed (link above) by #EricBurdon and #TheAnimals #1969
