War; what is it good for? Well, when you're talking about Eric Burdon's group from the 70s, it's absolutely something. Burdon will rejoin his old band after more than 35 years for a reunion show at London's Royal Albert Hall. The show will coincide with the rerelease of Eric Burdon Declares War and The Black Man's Burdon, the two albums the former Animals lead singer recorded with the band. Burdon formed WAR in 1969 and even though the band would have a modestly successful career, highlighted by "Spill The Wine" and the super funky "Low Rider," he would only remain with the band for two years. As of now, there are no plans for any Eric Burdon & WAR shows beyond the London gig.
