To: Leaning Right

He’s never happy wherever he is. He hated California, he hated Monaco (he found out that supremely rich Europeans don’t gather in pubs) and will soon be hating the Caribbean as well as London.

Has anybody here ever seen Eric Burden’s place in the Caribbean??? I saw it on Facebook and it is a paradise. To paraphrase Louise Brooks: where did he get all that dough?

Well, the Animals had a lot more hits in England, but even over here they didn’t do too bad with at least 4 or 5 charting singles I think.

Burdon owns the “Animals” trademark too, I believe, so he was able to reform the band after they broke up with his own musicians and kept all the money from those incarnations. Then he also surely made some dough from “Spill The Wine” and the first couple WAR albums. Probably was just smart and invested instead of spending it all on drugs and women.
