• Jacket condition: VG

War’s Why Can’t We Be Friends? captures the band’s unique ability to blend funk, soul, and Latin rhythms into a warm, groove-heavy sound that invites focused listening. The title track “Why Can’t We Be Friends?” pairs a catchy, sing-along chorus with that laid-back, slightly off-kilter feel that War perfected, while songs like “Low Rider” have become synonymous with their signature style. Producer Jerry Goldstein and engineers Ed Barton, Andrew Berliner, and Chris Huston helped shape an album where small-group acoustic moments meet a larger, rhythmic palette, making it a standout in War’s catalog. This 1975 vinyl pressing presents the album in its original era format, ideal for collectors who appreciate pressing authenticity without chasing the elusive first press. The record shows visible wear consistent with a VG grade, meaning it’s playable with some background noise and surface marks but remains a solid listen. It’s the kind of groove that holds up even if the vinyl does a little storytelling of its own — a reminder that even in the friendliest grooves, a little crackle can keep things interesting.

Sound samples are included to help you get a feel for the music, but they may not always match the exact pressing or track version of the record listed. When in doubt, trust the photos and pressing information - that's the actual record you're buying.
