Eric Burdon & War - Spill The Wine

Ex-Animal Eric Burdon und die amerikanische Funk-Band War mit ihrer Hit-Single "Spill The Wine" live im Beat Club am 26.09.1970. The first chart hit of the multi-ethnic band War, sang by short-time member Eric Burdon. Burdon, tired of his parent band The Animals in the UK, joined the Californian jam band in 1969. But after two albums, highly acclaimed concerts and rave reviews in the music press, Burdon suddenly left the group in the middle of an European tour and never went back. The song Spill The Wine was rediscovered in the late 90s as part of the soundtrack to Boogie Nights, Paul Thomas Andersons film about the Californian adult movie business of the 70s. It can be heard during the pool party scene with Mark Wahlberg, Burt Reynolds and Philip Baker Hall.
