The Eric Burdon Band - Sun Secrets

Review by David Lisowski

Sun Secrets is an album by the Eric Burdon Band that is a must-listen for any blues rock aficionado. The album was released in 1974 and features Eric Burdon's signature vocals that are soulful and powerful. The album has a mix of slow ballads and upbeat rock numbers that showcase the band's versatility.

The album's opening track "Lost Within the Halls of Fame" sets the tone for what is to come. The song is a slow, bluesy ballad that highlights Burdon's vocals and the band's ability to create a melancholic atmosphere. The album's title track "Sun Secrets" is a standout track that features a catchy guitar riff and a groovy bassline. The song has a psychedelic feel to it and Burdon's vocals are at their best.

Another highlight of the album is the track "Take It Easy." The song has a catchy chorus and a funky rhythm that will make you want to dance. The guitar solo in the middle of the song is also noteworthy and shows the band's musicianship.

Letter From a Country Farm is worth 5 stars by itself, but every cut here is full of emotion and intensity, a completely heavy set of songs riding brilliant low end, vocals and players are off the chart for passion. The recording is dense and dynamic. I have no clue how the reviewer got this wrong.

Je me souviens avoir vu un clip de cette chanson à la télé Française peu après la sortie de l'album "Sun Secrets"... Il y avait aussi un clip de "Hollywood Woman".
Où sont-ils ?

How much time did he get? I used to know him very well. I was Eric's engineer during that era. Alvin was a virtuoso rock drummer. I have a lot of old Eric stuff wtih Alvin and Aalon that I will begin putting up on YT.

@JulianThomePictures I knew Alvin out in Hollyweird in 1978. I was playing with Phil Seymour and had a demo-studio set up at Lil' Buddies rehearsal rooms at Hollyweird & Vine. He would come in before doing a session fo all kinds of people around L.A. I'd throw a track at him and he'd wail on it for a couple takes! He was incredible! But he might've had too-much fun. according the law. I hope he's alright!

I cant talk about the specifics but he will tell you it was the sex, drugs and rock and roll that got the best of him. Its a sad story.

I am glad you posted this song... the first song on the first side. I went out and bought the cassette (remember those 3 & 3/4 ips things) after I saw the band perform on Don Kirshner's "In Concert" TV series. Sad to hear what has become of his fellow musicians. However, I have seen a video on Youtube with the bassist playing with Eric and Brian Auger's group in 1991. "Ring of Fire" from the same LP is also a great cut displaying Eric's versatility in covering a Johnny Cash standard.
