Eric Burdon - Soul Of A Man (2006)

There are few musicians the world over that the listener instantly recognizes with eyes closed.

For over forty years he has been gracing the world with his fascinating voice and his infallible feel for authentic blues-rock. Burdons latest studio album, Soul Of A Man, a 14 track recording at the interface of Rock, Blues, Folk and Gospel, proves the old credo of its the singer, not the song, is still relevant in 2005. Soul Of A Man exposes an extremely lively, contemporary and hungry musician in the living legend that is Eric Burdon.
