War

From the opening percussion and boss bass riff all the way to that wailing saxophone outro, War unleashed an irresistible funky groove with their 1975 hit 'Low Rider'. The song hit the airwaves in the summer of 1975 and the single rode all the way to No. 7.

War founder Howard Scott is upset that his band got snubbed by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- again -- but he's more upset that the Beastie Boys will be inducted before them. Scotty talked to TMZ about the slight, saying, "I'll eat their platinum records!"
