It doesn't get better
drella6667 October 2006
Possibly the most astonishing piece of music TV ever broadcast. Otis in scintillating form, charismatic, warm, intense, genius, a man possessed by spirits beyond the understanding of mere mortals; a band so tight you couldn't slip a Rizla between them; dancers shaking thangs you didn't know they had; crowd goes insane; and, possibly best of all, Eric Burdon and Chris Farlowe, not quite sure whether they should be showing off their own (pretty damn impressive) talents, or just enjoying the experience. There's one extraordinary moment when Eric looks across, and you can tell he's thinking "bugger me, I'm singing with Otis".
