Eric Burdon Personality Type, MBTI
What is the personality type of Eric Burdon? Which MBTI personality type best fits? Personality type for Eric Burdon from Classic Rock and what is the personality traits.
ISTP (7w8)
Eric Burdon personality type is ISTP, judging by his forthrightness, bluntness and directness.
A classic example of this is when he said he didn’t go to the toilet after his first concert, because it was too early. He said “I just kept playing, I just wanted to get through the song.”
Another example is him saying that he doesn’t like food.
He has also had a reputation for being very tough on himself during his career, which is probably ISTP related.
He is also known for not liking people to put him down, which again is probably related to his Si.
At this point I should point out that ISTP Dominators are very strong in their Fe. They don’t like to take the blame, they like to take responsibility. This is often translated into an inability to admit fault, or to apologise.
I’ve seen him admit fault on the TV show 15 Years Later, but he was clearly unhappy doing it, and he tried to deflect the blame onto others. It didn’t look good. It looked as if he was trying to justify his actions without admitting that he was wrong.
