Classic Rock Pick Of The Week – The Edgar Winter Group [VIDEO]

This week in 1973, a monster song was atop the US singles charts, at least for a week until love knocked it off.

That song was Edgar Winter's 'Frankenstein.' Recorded in February 1973, this instrumental came from the album 'They Only Come Out At Night.' Edgar played several instruments on the song, including a keyboard instrument strapped around his neck. 'Frankenstein' sold over one million copies

A bit of trivia - The 'B' side of the 45 contained the song 'Undercover Man', and the song that knocked off "Frankenstein the next week, was Paul McCartney's 'My Love.'

For this week's Classic Rock Pick, enjoy this video of The Edgar Winter Group performing a cool version of 'Frankenstein in 1973 featuring an awesome drum solo.
