Eric Burden and the Animals ..not one of their most popular songs but one of the greatest ever. Captures the music scene in the 60s..and the rock n roll here is to die for.
Incredible video would be an understatement. Grace Slick,Janis,Mama Cass,Jimi, the Who, Brian Jones(Stones)..,.even spotted Mickey Dolenz in the enthusiastic gathering. Monterey Pop 1967 had to have been a magical time in history. So great to go back 1967!
Thanks. Yeah - it does seem like a magic event. The whole Summer of Love era seems like it would have been a really special time to be alive. Glad you enjoyed the video.
the lyrics of this song encapsulates the whole scene man...this song has an atmosphere of its own....gives me goosebumps..... takes you back there. I'd love to go back for a week...Oh yes... ". Down in Monterey "
Blast from the past!! Eric Burdon & The Animals with my favorite song of theirs, with synchronized video footage of musicians that are in the "Monterey" lyrics. Five HUGE Stars.
Sick Kaos so nice to know eric.was the only guy than just get close and controls.jim morrison on must brutal trips of the lizard king.on those wilds times.😉
A generation will come along that has the same spirit as the 60s and break from society as we did. I see them back to living free letting go of tech and politics. The last two generations have not come close but I hope it will happen.

It dawned on me watching this video that the now-defunct US Army base Fort Ord was just north of Monterey. I wonder how many service personnel on liberty attended. The city is also home to the Naval Postgraduate School and Defense Language Institute. On the site of Fort Ord now is Cal State Monterey Bay.
I have always loved this song, tried to imagine the festival in my head since I wasn't there. Now I don't have to imagine anymore! Thanks so very much for posting this. I wish time wasn't linear, because I'd go back and be a face in that crowd!

Bradley Allen Were you lucky enough to have been there? During the Love In's we were having In Griffith park during the 80's, I was able to talk to a couple that were there. Met David Crosby at one of the Recovery clubs in 89, when he came to speak. It is a miracle that he is still alive
Happy Birthday Eric Burdon born on May 11, 1941. He is an English singer-songwriter and actor. He was previously the vocalist of rhythm and blues and rock band The Animals and funk band War. He is regarded as one of the British Invasion's most distinctive singers with his deep, powerful blues-rock voice. He is also known for his aggressive stage performances. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Burdon
When I was a kid hippies were a little scary. You couldn't tell how old they were, they looked old but were cool. They were definetly different. I compare them to today's hipsters. Ill take the hippies any day they were ....better

OK you youngsters of today, look at these people in 1967, they are now in their mid seventies into their 80's and your opinion of them is probably along the lines of they are the reason you are suffering for whatever condition you think you have. They were all Americans, immigration was strictly controlled, gas was 22 cents a gallon and came from a whole bunch of refineries all in competition with each other, nothing sold here was made in China except from Hong Kong and Taiwan, there were no plastic straws or grocery bags, soft drink bottles went back to the bottler to be cleaned and refilled, you fixed your appliances, you did not throw them out and buy new, LBJ was ramping up the Vietnam war, and penicillin would cure every bug you could get. The beginning of the end occurred at the 1968 Democratic Convention, and it has been going down hill ever since.
Amazing music during an amazing time. Leaves much work to be done today. Like let's abolish political parties. No more Republicans, no more Democrats, all squabbling and wasting our time. Instead, just leaders united for the people and the nation.
I wonder why in the final mix they left Ravi's name pronounced wrong from Eric? 🤷🤦🤣 SHANKNAR?? although I was always surprised how come Eric never mentioned back-in-the-day Janis and Butterfield
The Plastic is up in DC. We actually talked to each other in person and didn't depend up these machines and technology. In 50 years, we have advanced in some ways, but in other ways, society is going backwards. I am an aging Hippie and cannot believe this bizarre world i find myself in now. I am ashamed of many of my baby boomers. They use to want to help change the world . Now they have bought into the lie and want to buy it. Their Karma will catch up with them.
Tony Harris yeah, I was at a garage sale, I bought 2 michael J. Thriller lp, 3 frank sinatras collection lps, the tom jones with this one inside and the collection of the songs used in saturday night fever (2 discs)
I’ve always thought he calls Brian Jones “His Majesty Prince Jones” because of the Stones album “Their Satanic Majesties Request”. Which is an underrated album in my opinion and has a very nice psychedelic track called “2000 light years from home” ua-cam.com/video/a7FKsWyLIfE/v-deo.html
This music absolutely blows anything today away.
ABSOLUTELY!!

My kid is headed to Monterey and I just had to send this to her. Such a great vibe and great song. It really tells it like it was! ❤
Give anything to be back in the 60s. Best period in history to be young for sure.
MISS MY OLD 1966 CHEVY.
The 1960's were the BEST period for ANYONE, AND AAAANYTHING.-BELIEEEVE ME, YOU
1968...the best year ever! The rest is just filler...
Eric Burdon is AMAZING!!!!
animals lover yeah and so what???

@@marinaperez868so what nothing. He's just saying he's a good singer
Just listened to this song after maybe 40 years.
How advanced it was for the time and under rated.
Great moment in time. 😁

Wow, that bass is incredible!!
he was definitely amped
there's a suburb in Sydney Australia called Monterey, every time I drive down there, this song is in my head. hahaha.
That bass line is amazing!
Incredible video would be an understatement.
Grace Slick,Janis,Mama Cass,Jimi, the Who, Brian Jones(Stones)..,.even spotted Mickey Dolenz in the enthusiastic gathering. Monterey Pop 1967 had to have been a magical time in history.

Yes I the new world that Jehovah promises from the Bible. It right around the corner ❤

The Who exploded into fire and light
Hugh Masekela's music was black as night
The Grateful Dead blew everybody's mind
Jimi Hendrix, baby, believe me
Set the world on fire, yeah
His Majesty, Prince Jones
Smiled as he moved among the crowd
Ten thousand electric guitars

You want to find the truth in life?
Don't pass music by

I was born in 1994 but I'm a throwback hippie, I embrace the lifestyles of my hippie roots which are the '60s and '70s.
If you see my posts on my home page, you will see that I am still active and determined!!
we will never experience something like this in life.. ever
Love the video highlights great song.why can't music be like this today.music is trash
Wow, Really quality video footage from this most iconic festival!
Excellent and perfect graphics for this awesome played and written song.
A dream can still happen if enough people are awake an care about each other an the planet.
The tune is played...gotta dance!
In 2020 I'll still put this 53-year old song on often when I'm lighting up some Chronic.
I spent a long time on the Central Coast,it is one of the most beautiful areas these eyes have ever seen

So So many beautiful white women and no skank tattoos.

If you’re young and landed on this video, those beautiful women groovin’ at this festival are your grandmothers. Get down. 😎
La mejor canción 👌
I love this song! Is that a sitar playing the lead, or a guitar played to sound like a sitar? Either way it casts a magical, late ‘60’s love in spell!
Coral electric sitar. Great sound!

"Монтерее" - Эрик Бердон и животные
Люди приходили и слушали
Некоторые из них пришли и сыграли
Другие раздали цветы, да, они сделали
Вниз в Монтерее
Вниз в Монтерее
Молодые боги улыбнулись толпе
Их музыка рождается из любви
Дети танцевали день и ночь
Религия зарождалась
Вниз в Монтерее
"Byrds" и "the Airplane" летали
О, музыка Рави Шанкара заставила меня плакать
"The Who" взорвался огнем и светом
Музыка Хью Масекелы была черной как ночь
"Grateful Dead" поразил всех
Джими Хендрикс, детка, поверь мне
Подожги мир, да
Его Величество принц Джонс
Улыбался, двигаясь среди толпы
Десять тысяч электрогитар
Были такие громкие, да
Хотите узнать правду в жизни?
Не проходите мимо музыки
И вы знаете, я бы не стал лгать, нет, я бы не лгал,
Нет я бы не стал лгать
Вниз в Монтерее
Хорошо!
Три дня понимания
Двигаться друг с другом
Даже копы шли с нами
Ты мне веришь?
Вниз в Монтерее, в Монтерее
Вниз в Монтерее, в Монтерее
Я думаю, что, может быть, я мечтаю
Монтерей, Монтерей
Вниз в Монтерее
Вы слышали, что я говорю?
Вниз в Монтерее
Monterey ! Kicks Ass. !
Gerat song, back in the day he was the man.
I wonder who cut the movie into a video for this song. Sure is a great editing job. This video is everywhere. The person who did it needs credit.
At the beginning God said let there be Light. And then there was Eric Burdon.
Awesome! Nice quality!
Thanks
Thanks to John Phillips Puttin together
Thanks for this one. Despite the fact that most of them were high or stoned, it was still gear.
I saw mickey D in the crowd!
My older sister went bto Woodstock.
see there were hot babes back then. all elderly grandmothers now lololol
"Feed your head, LOUDER it's never enough!"
Really great song that really doesn't sound like anything else the Animals did. (Horns?)
they were grooving for the X moving on take a look at when I was young
if you noticed there's a lot of sitar in this song because Ravi blew many away.
the horns were in tribute of Hugh masekela who was there too

Is any fan that attended Monterey Pop Festival still alive? We're not worthy..
Some, if not most, are probably still alive. Many of the performers are still alive - though, sadly, most have died.
For my friends who were there.
Is that Mickey Dolenz in the crowd at 4:04?
yup
Amazing music during an amazing time. Leaves much work to be done today. Like let's abolish political parties. No more Republicans, no more Democrats, all squabbling and wasting our time. Instead, just leaders united for the people and the nation.
Foi neste festival que o Forest Gump encontrou sua namorada depois de voltar do Vietnã
I still want to know what Jimi was smokin there lol
His guitar.
Anyone know that redhead with the pretty face n smile they keep showing?
What a great post. Thank you so much. Roger Crowder in Burnet, Texas

No brands!
So u could get stoned around cops in those days they probably got stoned to lol
I think he is still alive, 78?

Who was prince Jones?
Jojo - the line "Prince Jones" refers to Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones.
I’ve always thought he calls Brian Jones “His Majesty Prince Jones” because of the Stones album “Their Satanic Majesties Request”. Which is an underrated album in my opinion and has a very nice psychedelic track called “2000 light years from home”
