War - Gypsy Man

Review by Adrien Huang

The album "Gypsy Man" by War is a masterpiece of soulful music that takes listeners on a journey through time and space. The album showcases the group's signature sound, blending funk, jazz, and Latin rhythms to create a unique and unforgettable sound.

From the opening track, "Gypsy Man," to the closing notes of "Baby Face (She Said Do Do Do Do)," the album is a non-stop groove-fest that will have you tapping your feet and nodding your head along to the beat. The group's musicianship is on full display throughout the album, with each member contributing their unique talents to create a cohesive and powerful sound.

Standout tracks on the album include "Me and Baby Brother," a funky tribute to brotherhood and unity, and "The Cisco Kid," a Latin-infused jam that showcases the group's ability to seamlessly blend different musical genres.

About War

last ned album War - Gypsy Mantélécharger l'album War - Gypsy Manlataa albumi War - Gypsy Mandescargar álbum War - Gypsy Manladda ner album War - Gypsy Manbaixar álbum War - Gypsy Man
Funk group that started life in the early 1970s in Southern California. They formed out of the ashes of an earlier R&B covers group, (who also recorded as The Romeos and ), initially naming themselves Nightshift before producer discovered them and gave them a more distinctive name. Their initial recordings were collaborations with of English group The Animals, notably their first album ''. They later signed to United Artists and began releasing material on their own. Their first album was not a big success but their popularity was growing and later albums were very successful. They peaked commercially in the mid-70s with their Number 1 hit 'Low Rider'. Four members of the classic lineup from the 1970s have formed a new band (for legal reasons) called Lowrider Band. Things started to go downhill for the group in the late 70s when bassist B.B. Dickerson left and another member, Charles Miller, was murdered. Various line-up changes followed but the original magic was lost and the group were not as successful, eventually becoming just a touring act. A new generation has since discovered the music of War as they have been heavily sampled by hip-hop artists. The band continues to tour, although with only one of the original members. The other original members now play as the "Lowrider Band " however due to legal restrictions they are not even allowed to advertise themselves as former members of the band.

I was in my mid teens when this came out and I used to close my eyes and imagine myself riding a horse through the plains to nowhere in particular but at the same time searching for peace of mind .

For some odd reason, I associate this music to an island in the carribbean about to be hit by a hurricane.
Great?

Saw them back in day at the Knob. Howard got out into crowd drinking wine and smoking a doobie. Those were the days. RIP Papa Dee and BB
to state the obvious, you miss out on a lot of great sounds when you're a teen listening on a one-speaker AM radio, compared to headphones today
