I picked this up the other day but haven't had time to read the entire article.I noticed that,after the lengthy article on War,there is another,separate article/interview with Lonnie Jordan,who tours with 'new' members.That should be interesting.

Yeah,and that's a shame,isn't it? neutral I wish these guys could iron out their differences,reunite and do a tour featuring all the original members.

The last time the most of the original line up was on an album together was 1994's Peace Sign. I think since then like a lot of bands from their era, there was a lot of fights over money and rights to the band name.
