WAR - All Day Music

140-gram LP

Sophomore album reissued on vinyl

Includes "Slippin' Into Darkness"

"All Day Music is still one of this band's best-ever efforts. At times mellow enough to border on horizontal, the songs are filled with such texture and such rich intent that even in the band's quietest breath there is a funky resonance that fulfills Lee Oskar's vision fully." — AllMusic

There is no denying the place WAR holds in American music, notes American Songwriter. The LA-based band's sound — an amalgam of Latin, jazz, pop, world, funk, soul, and rock — remains distinctive and influential today. They were one of the most innovative of the ‘70s West Coast acts and as 50th anniversaries go, WAR surely ranks as important enough to celebrate.

WAR's second album without Eric Burdon, All Day Music was released in November 1971 on United Artists Records.
