War Live is the first live album by American band War, recorded during a four-night engagement at Chicago's High Chapparral club and released as a double LP on United Artists Records in 1973. The album was reissued on Rhino Records as a double disc CD on 1992 September 15 and again on 2008 March 31. The album contains a mere seven songs, including "Ballero" which was previously unreleased on an album. It had been released as a non-album single in 1973. Many of the songs appear in extended versions, two of them filling an LP side apiece. By the contrast, "Lonely Feelin'" appears as a short instrumental version of the song from the first War album of 1971. One single was taken from the album: "Ballero" / "Slippin' into Darkness", which charted at No. 33 on the USA pop chart, and No. 17 on the R&B singles charts. The album sold 1.5 million copies.
