One of the best, and most underrated, bands of the 20th century.

Big Afros, handlebar mustaches, but most of all? No bullshit, just real raw killer funky perfection!
What an iconic song! Opening song for Cheech And Chong’s “Up In Smoke”.
amazing, revolutionary artists; still sounds NOW, 50 years later
Amazing drumwork intro of Cisco Kid.
Charles Miller blowing on this one. Loved the fact that more than one got to lead th singing on their hits. Might feature some War on the weekly rap up tomorrow night!
In 1975 when this song Low Rider came out I was only 12 years old. It was my favorite song as a kid and still is to this day . Now I’m 59 . In my late 20’s I bought a 69 Chevy impala and lowered it and put in a 5000 watt stereo system and went cruising in it , I was 30 . I bet you can’t guess what song I played while cruising , that’s right , Low rider of course . The group War is the only war I like. Thanks War for a grate child hood , love your music.
I was 13 and I loved this song . Cheech and Chong had a bit to do with it lo
😍
Listen to "Four Cornered Room" My favorite aside from Low Rider/Cisco Kid of course.
👏🏾
So happy for you! 😊
Love that voice.
Yea I lived those days. Survived
ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME
Oh man, I loved this song so much. Still do.
Still love it October 2023!
In 1975 I was 12 years old best ever Alex
Me too + now at age 60 still listening.
One of my favorite songs they did was spill the wine with Eric Burdon
Such an amazingly talented band. This takes me back to a less complicated time and a happier place.
Yeah , La Puente Cal.
I remember hanging with my buddy Richard ……..My Mexican Pisano ……..We loved this song and would sing it together………
Aww, I remember this track! Used to dance to this back in the day! Also loved Me n Baby Brother!!!
"Cisco came in blastin' drinkin' port..."

I still play their album regularly. It never gets old!
Of course!? Fucking profound is profound! The Molillisa still hangs. We ain't burning the great books yet, and some folks are actually reading them.
here to appreciate the fantastic drum work..wow
Una locura vacilando esta musica en los 70
Immediately in my head, I see the opening scene to Up in Smoke!
I saw them in concert in the 70's at Hammersmith Odeon, London, England. Great concert.
HAPPY 74TH BIRTHDAY

One of the best
Love it! What a bass groove.
Saw them live in Aug 1974. Did both these tunes. Low Rider had not yet been released.
Love this band! Three originals are still playing together as 'The Lowrider Band'
That's a wild funk timing progression on Cisco Kid 😎
I love these 2 songs and listening to them together is awesome. Great band, great talented and real musicians.
GOLD,dis the first time I seen a live performance of"Low Rider."I've seen The Midnight special live performance of"Cisco kid."
I love the way they know they’re bad asses and also how they enjoy PLAYING their funky anthems, great post
Yes I remember the singing group WAR and I love all of their songs🔊🎤🎤🎹🎶🎵
My parents are huge fans of WAR. I grew up hearing their music all the time ever since I was baby. Their music was engrained in my soul. I have so much respect for them. Seeing them live with my parents at the L.A. County Fair is a memory I’ll always remember.
Thanks for years of your time and effort. Greatly appreciated guys.
I still have there cds in my car & play daily.
I was a senior in high school when this album came out. A lot of memories. Along with All Day Music
Thee enthusiasm is without question.
My first concert I won the tickets from the newspaper station. I wasn’t old enough to drive out to Pine Knob ; thanks dad my guy always. Three acts local funk group Parliment, WAR, EWF. They killed it I bought every album they put out WAR LIVE…Slipping into Darkness. I was 15 and my younger brother was 14. We still reminisce about that night.

Effin fantastic bassline! He is driving this funky bus!
Love it! In the 70's was working a factory in jersey. My friend Jose lived in NY in the Bronx. We was listening to this song on break. He told me, steel in the following sentence means motor cycle, and the Fort is where the Outlaws had a clubhouse. Jose knew the ''Street view" of the music of the times, tough SOAB! here is the sentence means motor cycle probably a Harley. "They rode the sunset, horse was made of steel".
They were something special.
Such a cool sound! Wish I had the chance to see them in the day but still grovin to the sound in 2022!
They are still playing O saw them doing a tiny concert on in a van, absolutely PERFECT 😂🎉❤
Great, fantastic,out of this world
Low Rider is my Ring Tone!!!!!!! I'm 70 still Rock n Roll!!!!!!!!! Cali4nia!!!!!!!
Incredible music talented musicians on their own right, I have always thought to see a jam together for these 3 bands on there heydays like WAR, THE COMMODORES and EARTH WIND AND FIRE .I must be dreaming .....
That white afro guy on Harmonica is packing heat lol This band was so smooth.
Lee Oskar
Great group that made great music.
Waking up and hearing this at 2am😭
I love that kind of music!!!
Blasting this at full volume while eating salted peanuts out the can
Phenomenal live band. I saw them at the Varsity theater in Baton Rouge in the 90s. Most of the original lineup. Great musicianship
Saw War a few years back, Grand Funk opened w/o Farner. I wore knee length black leather flat heeled boots, danced~stomped all night feet were so sore the next day. What a fantastic night~memory! Love this funk band!! 😅
The coolest song ever written.
NOT OVER CISCO KID,SLIPPIN INTO DARKNESS,THE WORLD IS A GHETTO ETC;
Loved their sound, the true Wall of Sound.
Congrats War , your music has withstood the test of time ! Still just as great as when it was first released !
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine.
War came to my ears as a child through K-Tel compilation records, and has echoed through my life eve since. Why can’t we be friends?
Ha ha... If you remember k-tel you remember Columbia house. Buy 3 get 10 free. We use to fill it out and keep it in our pocket as a playlist
A legit and hot selling pop, r&b, funk band, with a clarinet blowin' on the live set of Cisco Kid. Love it!
The first time I heard this was on the Electric Company in the early 70s. I’ve been a war lover since then
One of my favorites Bands of all time!! Definitely underrated but that's OK because it leaves them for US! I still cry when I listen to " SO"
Up in Smoke !!
Lee Oskar was always a rocker/marcher while playing. Met him a couple of times. Nice guy down to earth. Gave me a couple of harps. One of my favorite songs to perform. Always a crowd pleaser. War should be in the R & R hall of fame.
Great songs! I remember them clearly as if it was just yesterday… I enjoyed them then and still enjoy them now. Here I am over 60. Thank you!
Master legendary HOWARD SCOT vocal band WAR
Saw them live at a county fair. The bass lines were pre-recorded, but a good performance. I see the keyboard player throwing in some jazz cords.
I really LOVE playing my instruments knowing you taught me how. Wishing and wondering and my dreams came true thanks for every note!

Wow Wow!
The World is a Ghetto was a great album. Classic.
Best selling album of 1973, bigger than anything by the Who, Stones, Zep, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd, Stevie Wonder, James Taylor or any of the solo Beatles. It was BIG.
I was hoping for a good copy of a live "Lowrider" performance by the original group. Good job, Reelin'!
Thanks for the upload
...and flash backs to "Up In Smoke" ;)
Simply EXCELLENT
Luv it!!!
The best ever
BEAUTIFUL!!!
Excelente banda ❤
Tremendo sonido,excelent and nice.
One of the first things I would do when my boyfriend picked me up for a date was popping in an 8track of WAR. GOOD TIMES. 😎😊
saw them thirty years ago, they were amazing
My best friend was name Cisco thanks for the video I seen war several times
When I need some funk, I always wind up listening to this amazing band. I love me some funk. It lifts me up. Peace to the band members, present and past.
This is one of the best Live performances I have ever seen!
I would have loved to have been there.
Lee Oscar, was my favorite
Behold the OG KZEW logo behind the stage!
Hey man, this was the year I was born !! Might be the reason why I love this jam so much and feel no pains or worries.. ✌️😂🤣
Smooth groove.
Saw them at the Newport Jazz Festival at Shea Stadium - '78 or '79 - best guess...
Phenomenal musicians.
Also if ya dig this song on youtube by War 😊 you may enjoy Where Roses Grow Live by Rez Band. I remember hearing the song by Led Zepp " In My Time of Dyin " during my drug years and made me think about death and Jesus. Then a hippy friend that dug Jesus told me more of Jesus love and forgiveness and how I could also know Jesus love. So in 1981 I cried out to Jesus and wow man He came into my life and I had and have so much joy and peace and now know that through Jesus when I die I will be with Him in Heaven. Hey Jesus loves each of you also and yall can know Him if you are at all open. Just cry out to Him and also read the Gospel of John in the Bible or check out the movie on UA-cam. 😀
I saw WAR on Oct 22, 1977 at Dallas Convention Center. Since the KZEW logo is displayed on the stage backdrop, I wonder if that is the concert I attended !?!?! (KZEW was a local Dallas radio station back then).
On the radio,chech and Chong, gone in 60 seconds. Hell today on fox and friends. Full circle. Love it
Fox and friends brought me here.
I'm a reggae fan so I love that reggae feel to why cant we be friends. Kia from nz.
Nice 🙂🎵🎧🎤🎶
