Sunny War

A young naval ensign must unmask a killer on board an ammunitions ship in this intriguing novel of suspense, set during World War II. It's 1943, World War II is well under way, and Ensign Peter Maxwell is enjoying easy days in San Diego as base choir director and warm nights with his new bride, Kay. But there's a war out there waiting to be fought, and Pete wants to be part of it.

Greatest Hits Live (2008) finds the much-loved 1970s funk band War back in the saddle and performing many of their classic tracks for a rapturous audience. Their first release in 14 years, Greatest Hits Live, doesn’t represent a new side to War, but that’s not why fans will pick up the disc. Instead, the large ensemble, famous for its mixing of rock, soul, Latin, and funk, recaptures the sunny, organic feel of its ‘70s albums with high-energy versions of “The World Is a Ghetto,” “Me and My Brother,” and “Why Can't We Be Friends.” ~Allmusic

What, exactly, does Miguel want? Listening to the lusty slow jams that make up fourth album ‘War 
& Leisure’, you’d be forgiven for thinking this loverman mainly wants a nice cuddle. It wasn’t always this way, though. Speaking to NME this week, the musician explained that critically lauded 2015 album ‘Wildheart’ said “something about what I stand for”, but lacked commercial success. Back then, he wanted to be an artist. Right now he wants to be a pop star. This new record is stuffed with killer hooks, bouncing rhythms and breezy production, with Travis Scott-featuring lead single ‘Sky Walker’ racking up more than 28 million YouTube views since August. The force is most definitely with Miguel.
