About "The Bird & The Squirrel" by Eric Burdon
Eric Burdon and War stretch funk-rock into a simmering, jazz-tinged groove. The titleโs playful creatures mask a tense, syncopated chaseโbrass stabs dart like a squirrel, bass lines swoop like a bird. Calm organ hums beneath restless percussion, a push-pull of ease and unease.
