War a Latin- funk rock band formed in Long Beach, California- from 1970-82 had 16 Hot 100 hit singles with 12 making the Top 40. Their biggest hit was a #2 ‘The Cisco Kid’-1973.
They had some great songs. I dig War’s first album with Eric Burdon.
I like it a lot. Hard to pin them down to one sound, which is pretty good. I had a best of CD at one time, liked almost every track, even the obscure ones.
I was a pretty big fan of War, and bought their greatest hits album.
