Free for your viewing pleasure via Comcast right now! And tell me that the guy who introduces the bands doesn't look like a the bad egg from Project Runway a few years back ! Scenes from this movie include skateboarding, groovy girls a go-go, boat racing, his and her jumpsuits, dirt bikes in car washes, lighting that looks more '70s soft porn, bands playing in the mouth of a monster, camel riding, and some of the biggest hair bows you have ever seen.
Eric Burdon is my new favorite front man - is it just me or does have he a weird Elliott Smith vibe. His pissed off, I don't give a crap expression is the best.
And this is just a weird creepy Animals video - the women hanging on the wall like taxidermy hunting prizes is so over the top.
So I might be a little obsessed now. Eric Burdon with War from 1971
Check out the guitar tone!
Now this is a dance party!
That monster mouth stage is from the Haunted House a 60's club in LA. You can see it in The Girl in the Gold Boots(1968) too, here's the opening credits complete with go go dancers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9isRntFGz14
