Album Number One Hundred Seventy One. “The Black-Man's Burdon” is a double album by funk band #ericburdon and #warband , released in December 1970 on #mgmrecords . It was the last album by the group before Burdon left and the remaining band continued as War. My copy is a gatefold on MGM Records - SE 4710-2 And, the war bond is a nice piece included in the jacket. The title is a pun on #theblackmansburden expression which refers to black slavery, used as the title of a book by E. D. Morel (1920) in response to the poem, "The White Man's Burden" (1899) by #rudyardkipling which refers to (and champions) western imperialism (including its history of slavery) #rockandroll #theseventies https://www.instagram.com/p/CVV3VnQrCQr/?utm_medium=tumblr
