For the first time in 37 years, Eric Burdon and WAR will be performing together - for one night only - at London's historic Royal Albert Hall on April 21. Incidentally, Rhino Records is also planning to reissue the two Eric Burdon and WAR classic albums. The two Burdon/WAR collaborations, 1970's "Eric Burdon Declares WAR" and "Black Man's Burdon," are to be released March 24 in the U.K., followed by the release of their 1976 compilation album, "Love Is All Around," on March 31. It was the Burdon-led, near-chart-topping "Spill the Wine" that introduced the masses to the group in 1970.
The Eric Burdon and WAR lineup for the show will be comprised of Burdon and keyboardist Lonnie Jordan, as well as Start Ziff (guitar), Francisco "Pancho" Tomaselli (bass), Fernando Harkless (saxophone), Mitch Kashmar (harmonica), Marcos Reyes (percussion) and Salvador Rodriguez (drums). The performance will also be filmed for subsequent DVD release.

March 1 – Lake Tahoe, NV @ Harrahs
March 28 – Stuttgart, Germany
March 29 – Stuttgard, Germany
April 26 – Hubbard Park – Band Shell Stage, CT
