 Incomplete album.....missing track May 15, 2008

I bought this CD comp for one track on the Stop album that I hadn't heard since my vinyl copy wore out long ago. The track is "Be mine". It's not on this CD. I didn't check the track listing when I bought the CD because it never occurred to me that they would simply omit this track....big disappointment.....the rest of the tracks are good because they're Eric Burdon recordings, but the omission of this critical 8 minute song is really cheesy...
 Stop is an overlooked gem February 22, 2008

Quite a few comments here re: Sun Secrets being the stronger album and it certainly delivers but it still has one foot firmly entrenched in Burdon's Animal past. Nothing wrong with that but it's hard to beat the originals for Animal classics.
IMO, Stop is a simply great album. I remember buying this on vinyl way back when and was knocked over by the tight arrangements and smoking riffs. City Boy is an all out rocker with a terrific bridge and pounding beat. The title song Stop really cooks with a guitar solo that's both funky and rocking and is a testament to a great band with a great front man that were moving in new directions. Too bad there wasn't room on this double album for the smoldering 8 minute Be Mine. I would have preferred it to the dated `Letter from the Country Farm'.
Yes, it's too bad if Burdon didn't get paid for this but I've got to think this was work he is proud of.

Of the two albums, I like Sun Secrets the best. Eric with a great power trio. He basically let the guys in the band do the arrainging of the old Animal tunes. There's not a bad song in the whole group. One power chord after another. This group also was to record the ill-fated Mirage album. After making million record sellers out of WAR, Gold and Goldstein pulled the plug on a very original concept album. Stop seems a little more disjointed album, put out without Eric's knowledge, just to fulfill a record contract. The best song on the album, " Be Mine" isn't included on the CD. But hey, two of Eric's albums for the price of one is worth it.
 Things I Missed July 30, 2007

Eric Burdon had alot of good music and the bands he played with were at there peak when he sang with them. This was one of those pieces of his entire collection that his play on words as his poetry should have stood out more than it did. This was a good purchase as the walk down memory lane is listening great Blues. Thanks Celtic

I agree that it's a shame that Burdon could not control the release of this material, and an even bigger shame if he is not getting royalties for them, but if you like Eric Burdon, you cannot do without Sun Secrets. The guitarist is great here at amping up some Burdon classics and Burdon himself is wonderful. Don't cut off your nose to spite some record company's face.
