War guitarist Howard Scott is not known for long flowing solos, but on "Get Down" from the 1972 live album he steps out. However the real beauty of this track is not the guitar but in Harold Brown's second line drumming. This is very long ~15 minutes but the complete track (not posted here) is around 20 minutes. If you like early seventies funk/rock their live album is a must have. I like music where there's communication among the musicians rather than just people playing backup for a star. The drums are as much a lead instrument here as anything else.
BTW Bob Marley and War were friendly and occasionally toured together. If you notice, Bob Marley used the riff from Slipping into Darkness and modified it for Get Up Stand Up.
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives." Winter is Coming Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
