Why Can't We Be Friends? (Quadio) (Blu-ray Audio)
Previously Unreleased Quadraphonic Mix
Transferred From The Original Half-Inch Four-Channel Masters
Blu-ray With 192/24 Resolution Quadraphonic And Hi-Res Stereo Mixes
War’s trademark fusion of funk, Latin, soul, and rock is in full effect on WHY CAN’T WE BE FRIENDS?, which reached the Billboard Top 10. The Gold-certified album produced two Top 10 singles: “Low Rider,” whose laid-back groove became a pop-culture staple, and the title track, a million-selling anthem of unity that was beamed to the U.S. astronauts and Soviet cosmonauts during the historic Apollo-Soyuz link-up in 1975.
Quadraphonic sound, or 4.0 surround sound, utilizes four audio channels connected to four speakers positioned at the corners of a listening space. The multi-tracked audio is mixed dimensional, immersing the listener in an expansive soundscape.
