This album was War's nineth and last studio album, before breaking up. This is a collection of 6 nice, rambling tunes. As always with War, the music is great and performance is great. Life Is So Strange is a very typical War track. It is slow and a little bluesy, with the East LA influence. Hapiness is a funky tune, with a great driving beat. Shake It Down is a typical early eighties disco song. But, it better than most of the popular disco songs. Summer Dreams might be the weakest tune on the album. It is a lazy, slow, harmonica driven instrumental, so the title is perfect. It reminds me of the Rascals' Groovin', but without the lyrics. U-2 is one of those classic, long, interesting and driving numbers that always end a War album. It on par with the greatest last tracks of any War album.
