| | Eric Burdon and War |
 | | War was one of the biggest new funk acts of the 70s, competing head-to-head with Earth, Wind & Fire, and regularly beaten out on the charts only by big-time 60s R & B survivors like Stevie Wonder |
 | | War was still backing Burdon when they signed their own record contract, but they split with him soon after. |
 | | War was burning out at this point; the album didn't yield a hit single, barely missed the Top 40, and took an uncharacteristic four months to gold. |
