The Black Man's Burdon [MGM, 1971]
On the front cover of this album is a black man in silhouette. On the back cover Eric, looking paunchy, rests his head in the crotch of a black woman straddled above him. He also holds her ankles. Inside the jacket seven men, presumably the band, occupy the background of a full-length photo of a grassy field. Six of the men are black; five are bare-chested. In the foreground recline two naked blondes who obviously belong in a centerfold. The left hand of one is thrown back to reveal a clean-shaven and possibly airbrushed underarm, so that her right does not quite conceal her pubic hair. Her companion hides her sex with both hands. The only man who is standing appears to be walking toward the women. He has removed the belt from his pants. D+

the album went gold without a hit single.
animals hits i think were over by end of 65.
so it's kind of a mystery how he maintained an audience at that late date i think.
i think he had a minor hit with that san francisco song in like 67 or 68 and spill the wine with war (who this album was with) was a hit too.f
i guess people really liked that song so bought this without even any hits.

He still had a massive hit without the Animals.

mostly accurate, they didn't manage to adapt once the British Invasion gave way to psych rock and died off

This is not a review of an album, it's a review of an album's cover art.

Why does this dude sound like a Midwestern church secretary panicking over her son's rock albums?

supposedly they had really bad management.
and it's hard to claim they didn't adapt to psych when they literally did maybe the most psych-suck up song ever youtube.com/watch?v=QeAhG-dee2c&themeRefresh=1

best version of CC Rider ever no matter how much some snob blues purists objected to his turning it into roller rink music for 12 year old girls
