Each soundscape is meticulously crafted to create a cohesive and engaging listening experience. War's ability to weave together layers of sound and texture is evident throughout, making "The World Is a Ghetto" a standout release.

  • War's Masterpiece Groove

    5 out of 5 stars
    nacewwonAugust 24, 2025United States🇺🇸

    To największe osiągnięcie grupy. Płyta, która w 1973 roku była bestsellerem w USA. War połączyli tu funk, soul, jazz i rock w długich, hipnotycznych utworach. Tytułowy utwór to ponad 10 minut groovu, gdzie muzyka i społeczny komentarz idą w parze. Album jest i tańczący („The Cisco Kid”), i myślowy („Four Cornered Room”), a całość łączy ciepły, improwizowany klimat.

  • Jazzy Funk and Soul Compilation

    4 out of 5 stars
    gumiYG_July 22, 2025United States🇺🇸

    This album is a fantastic compilation of early 70s jazzy funk and soul tracks. It's packed with loads of percussion, organ, and horn layers to savor. Standout tracks are the title track, which is absolutely epic, and "Cisco Kid". The mix is super clean and the pressing is excellent. The drums and bass really hit hard. The vinyl is dead quiet. Very impressive. Highly recommended.

  • Box Sound Quality Excellent

    5 out of 5 stars
    MIIJIJuly 17, 2025United Kingdom🇬🇧

    The box is really great, and the sound quality is top-notch, with the extra content being a must-have... Initially, I didn't expect to replay the rehearsal audio, but I've already listened to it 6 or 7 times! It's absolutely captivating. Though, it's a bit odd that only 3 of the bonus tracks from the newest CD master didn't make it onto this one.

  • Mind-Blowing Audio Quality

    5 out of 5 stars

    The sound quality is absolutely mind-blowing on this top-notch audio system!
