The Crazy World of Arthur Brown

I need to try and dig that one out. I bet it has really held up over the years.

He use to come out on stage with something on his head that was actually on fire when he would do that song - " You're Gonna Burn, Burn............ Fire! "

Richard Pryor did the flaming bit too but I don't think it was on purpose.

If you like Arthur Brown, you should really dig Screaming Jay Hawkins, the originator of "I Put a Spell on You". He was Arthur Brown's main influence and inspiration. Indeed, I got deep into Screaming Jay Hawkins in the '60s, after first hearing his stuff done well, but less effectively, by Arthur Brown and by The Animals.

Vincent Crane was the keyboard player and actually wrote the song. He split off and formed atomic rooster.
There are actually quite a few brown albums worth owning and he has that screaming jay hawkins type shreiking down, which not everyone likes.
