Released 1972Soul & R&B
Start here

A smooth, socially conscious funk-soul peak of Latin and jazz textures. Groovy and warm. A 70s favourite. Released in 1972, it's a standout in War's catalogue.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
