    In 1975 when this song Low Rider came out I was only 12 years old. It was my favorite song as a kid and still is to this day . Now I’m 59 . In my late 20’s I bought a 69 Chevy impala and lowered it and put in a 5000 watt stereo system and went cruising in it , I was 30 . I bet you can’t guess what song I played while cruising , that’s right , Low rider of course . The group War is the only war I like. Thanks War for a grate child hood , love your music.

    Love it! In the 70's was working a factory in jersey. My friend Jose lived in NY in the Bronx. We was listening to this song on break. He told me, steel in the following sentence means motor cycle, and the Fort is where the Outlaws had a clubhouse. Jose knew the ''Street view" of the music of the times, tough SOAB! here is the sentence means motor cycle probably a Harley. "They rode the sunset, horse was made of steel".
