War Greatest Hits on 180g 45RPM 2LP from Analogue Productions: Mastered by Ryan K. Smith from the Original Analog Master Tapes, Plated and Pressed at QRP
Originally released in 1976, the War compilation album Greatest Hits contains a monster set of Chicano funky grooves from L.A., most of which forever transformed the sound of funk. The album includes most of the band's best cuts - such as "Slippin Into Darkness," "Cisco Kid," "World Is A Ghetto," "All Day Music," "Me & Baby Brother," "Why Can't We Be Friends," and "Low Rider." One of the hippest funk, rock and soul groups on the Cali scene of the '70s, who just kept on making great music as the years went on!
Presented on 45RPM, and plated and pressed at QRP, Analogue Productions' reissue of this historic album gives listeners a sonic experience that is clean, balanced, and richly detailed. The dead-quiet double-LP, with the music spread over four sides of vinyl, reduces distortion and high frequency loss as the wider-spaced grooves let your stereo cartridge track more accurately.
