War -- Cisco Kid

Here is a video of War performing Cisco Kid on Burt Sugarmans Midnight Special. War produced some of my very favorite songs -- fusing funk, reggae, even jazz with their L.A. latino cultural influences to produce one of the most unique and groundbreaking sounds of the time. Love this stuff.



Enjoy the deep groove,

I always thought Gil Scott Heron should have hooked up with War. Somehow their groove and his lyrics seemed to me like they went together.

That would have been truly epic.
