Eric Burdon & WAR – The Complete CD Collection / 4CD set

This landmark compendium brings together the band’s formative works from 1970–1976. The package showcases each essential album from that pivotal time period: Eric Burdon Declares War, Black Man’s Burdon and Love Is All Around. Arriving at the outset of WAR’s 55th Anniversary, the collection not only celebrates the band’s pathbreaking journey, but showcases the origins of a legacy defined by unparalleled fusion and relentless creativity – and one which continues to thrive more than half a century later.  

One of music’s defining and most enduring soul and funk groups, WAR was founded in Long Beach, CA. In 1970, producer Jerry Goldstein united a seven-piece band with former Animals lead singer Eric Burdon, an alliance which would go on to produce the #1 worldwide hit, “Spill the Wine.” 55 years later, this chapter in WAR’s hit-making history has now been reassembled  and meticulously remastered by award-winning engineer Bernie Grundman, honoring this “barrier-breaking collaboration from a trail-blazing era” (Classic Rock).
