Exhausted and volatile, Burdon bailed out on WAR in the middle of a European tour. Already starting to assert themselves, WAR finished the tour without him and returned to record an album without Burdon. When Eric Burdon and WAR’s success outlasted the mercurial Burdon’s attention span, Goldstein was faced with trying to make WAR stand on its own. The result was WAR’s 1971 self-entitled debut album. While this album met with only modest success, it laid the groundwork for things to come. “They loved playing live and toured constantly. The experience of making the first album was enlightening to all of us, especially me. I really felt I got an understanding how to make this work and rushed them back into the studio to cut the second album” says Goldstein.
