“We spoke out against racism, hunger, gangs, crimes, and turf wars, as we embraced all people with hope and the spirit of brotherhood. It’s just as apropos today.” - WAR
WAR, the original street band, was founded by veteran record producer Jerry Goldstein and rock legend Eric Burdon in 1969. Together with the original band members Lonnie Jordan, Howard Scott, Lee Oskar, B.B. Dickerson, Harold Brown, the late Thomas “Papa Dee” Allen, and Charles Miller, they blended many musical styles and influences. The musical laboratory that is WAR yielded 17 gold, platinum and multi-platinum awards, including the triple platinum ‘The World Is A Ghetto’ and double platinum ‘Why Can’t We Be Friends?’ and ‘Greatest Hits’, and hit songs "Why Can't We Be Friends?", "Low Rider", "Spill the Wine", and "The Cisco Kid".
WAR began playing live shows to sold-out audiences in the 1970s and continues their commitment to being road WARriors, touring over 150 dates a year to this day.

You did a great job with all these videos....thank you!!
Best concerts ever attended were Eric Burdon in collaboration with War ✌❤🌷🌷🎶✊
I grew up in Downey Ca.
and I remember hearing there songs on the radio. The combination of harmonica saxes and flute had the most unusual sound. Loved these guys....👉🎷👈
I was 12 the year this album came out. Yes it lit up the air of my world with this tune coming from ALL types of radios, 8 tracks, and turntables. It was awesome.
The poetic verses of this song inspired me to start writing songs when I heard it at 12.
After all these years anit nothing change at al!
and why IS that?
@@bellinghammondbecause yes
huh uh...because "clownin" never stops@@shawnv123
@@bellinghammond The politicians are bought and paid for. Look at Gaza.
Israel is the super power that controls the West.
Gotten worse now we all work 3 jobs to make Billionaires richer.
🎶🎤 Searching for a place... Love it!!! 🥁🎺🎶❤
Compared to some of the music today listening to this is like drinking fresh water in a hot desert.
Brilliant. My all time fave by them. Great job.
Oh the memories 💜
The late 1960s-early-1970s were an especially fascinating time music wise as it related to what was REALLY going on @ the world and in society as a whole at that time. 🌎
As the cost of living gets higher. The world will definitely be a big ghetto
O.G. Shit Brownsville Brooklyn N The House❤
This Song will stay forever
Wow great song
WOW😊
BEE YOO TI FUL❤
As soulful as the song...
Lee Oskar ... so smooth playing harmonica as a lead instrument.

Rip Brooks Schwartz 😢 you turned me onto war that time we tripped and it was an amazing experience.....
My brother Vic (R.I.P.) turned me on to this too .. never forget that day
My neighbor in the halfway house turned me onto War
🙏🙏🙏🌎🇺🇸 Thank God for another blessed opportunity. Thank God for the kingdom. Isaiah 9:6. The most powerful song. 🙌 Thank God for my freedom
Good times
Now more than ever….
This is a very powerful song 💯
Smh...This Joint TOOOO HARD👍🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾😎
I dug the War classics as a kid, just like most. then I found Platinum Jazz in the mid/late 70's and was just blown away.
The Superfly days..
2:40 WAR they were a once in a lifetime BAND
Cruising music 😎😎
With all the crime, mass shootings, homelessness and hate across the globe this title is almost true.
@LyndonWilliams, read my comment, a summary @ a similar subject.
“almost”? It is true😵💫🥺
This Hit’s Home In 2024 In America!
Without Jesus Christ in our lives, the world can be down right raggedy.❤Prayers going up.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
K Billy's Super Sounds of the 70's brought me here.
Walkin' down the street, smoggy-eyed
Looking at the sky, starry-eyed
Searchin' for the place, weary-eyed
Crying in the night, teary-eyed
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a dojo
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a dojo
Wonder when I'll find paradise
Somewhere there's a home sweet and nice
Wonder if I'll find happiness
Never give it up now I guess
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a dojo
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a dojo
There's no need to search anywhere
Happiness is here, have your share
If you know you're loved, be secure
Paradise is love to be sure
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a dojo
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a dojo
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a dojo
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a dojo
💯🎼🎶🌏🌈♥️✌️
This was before synthesized music. Yes people, there was a time when musicians played instruments, and this is what it sounded like.
Awesome job! 👏
💕🕊️
Niiiice!
Me quedo con Low Rider & Spill the Wine. !!❤🎉
Where is the sax solo? That is sacrilegious.
This is the 45 rpm version; the version that the WABCs played in 1973.
Semi-Pro

❤yes i know Larry ANIEL
Ghetto Boys sampled this properly on their Resurrection album. From Amsterdam to Amarillo…”The World… Is A Ghetto….”
Art style remind me of Robert Crumb, probably on purpose.
SHEESH
this song is actually depressing despite it sounding happy
Remember that time when making music actually involved making music.
I miss the Old World
Without trying to be a downer, music made the same way then and now. Controlled by the music industry, dictating what and when we listen.
I don’t but Pepperidge farms does
