ERIC BURDON & THE ANIMALS
VIC BRIGGS, DANNY McCULLOCH, BARRY JENKINS, JOHN WEIDER
Winds of Change opened the psychedelic era in the history of Eric Burdon & the Animals,
although Burdon's drug experiences had taken a great leap forward months earlier
with his first acid trip, and he and the group had generated some startlingly
fresh-sounding singles in the intervening time, it was Winds of Change
that plunged the group headfirst into the new music

The band's new era opened with waves washing over the title track, which included sitarand electric violin, while Burdon's voice, awash in reverb, calmly recited a lyric that
dropped a lot of major names from blues, jazz, and rock. "Poem by the Sea" was
a recitation by Burdon, amid a swirl of echo-drenched instruments, and it led into
one of the group's handful of memorable covers from this period, "Paint It Black", driven
by John Weider's electric violin and Vic Briggs' guitar, and featuring an extended vocal
improvisation by Burdon, their approach to the song was good enough to make
it part of the group's set at the Monterey International Pop Festival that June,
and also to get a spot in the documentary movie that followed...(AllMusic)
