Eric Burdon: Rock 'n' Roll Animal(2019)
Eric Burdon: Rock 'n' Roll Animal Synopsis
Born in 1941, Eric Burdon was – along with his band The Animals – one of the most important standard-bearers of the British Invasion of America, right after The Beatles and ahead of The Rolling Stones, The Who and The Kinks. Their 1964 interpretation of House of the Rising Sun was a global hit and inspired Bob Dylan (who recorded an acoustic version on his first album) to go electric and hit the stage from then on backed by a rock band.
Eric Burdon: Rock 'n' Roll Animal (2019) is a music and documentary film directed by Hannes Rossacher, released on August 9, 2019 with a runtime of 59m. It stars Eric Burdon, Sting, Steven Van Zandt and Patti Smith.
