WAR Greatest Hits (The Spirit Of '76 50th Anniversary Edition 2026 UK/EU 10-track LP using lacquers cut by Kevin Gray and pressed on 180-gram black vinyl. Formed in Los Angeles at the turn of the 1970s, WAR built a sound that moved freely across funk, soul, Latin rhythm and rock, rarely settling into just one of them for long. Greatest Hits gathers the tracks that carried that sound furthest: "The World Is A Ghetto," "Low Rider," later adopted so widely acrossfilm, television and lowrider car culture that it's become something close to a genre unto itself, and "Why Can't We Be Friends?," whose title alone has outlived the record as a piece of everyday language. Together with "The Cisco Kid," "Slippin' Into Darkness" and "Summer," the collection traces a band whose reach extended well past the boundaries of any one radio format. Presented in a high quality picture sleeve with a Stars & Stripes "Spirit of '76" hype sticker, and factory sealed).
