Very rare soundboard recording of the Eric Burdon Band playing at the 1st. Avenue Club in Minneapolis, April 1989. This is the only show from 1989 I know of, but there might be others. I know that Eric also toured Australia in '89, but no shows have turned up.
The songs performed, are a mix of classic Animals tunes, mixed with quite a bit of new material from Eric's album I Used To Be An Animal, released on Striped Horse in 1988. However, things didn't go to well, and as you can hear, Eric isn't very satisfied with it. For the intro of Don't Give A Damn, he states:

"This a new song, it's from my new album which you never find, 'cause the record company's out of fuckin' buisness... That means and instant collectible, get it while you can!"

Also included are rare perfomances of I Used To Be An Animal/The Dream, American Dreams, New Orleans Rap and Going Back To Memphis. The set closes with the jam numbers Louie Louie and Lawdy Miss Clawdy, the former excisting in only a few other versions.

Excellent quality, transferred in lossles wave from 2nd. generation tape by yours truly, using a Grundig RR 640 CD tape deck and a Zoom H4 handy recorder. File splitting, fading and volume boost done in Cubase SX3. Conversion to flac and torrent made with Trader's Little Helper.
