Today's Forgotten Oldie...

The band War had a huge hit in 1972 with "The Cisco Kid" from the album The World Is A Ghetto.  The song went to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song is of course about O. Henry's well known fictional "Robin Hood of the West" and has been featured in a 1994 TV Movie starring Jimmy Smits and Cheech Marin, and even covered by people like Willie Nelson.  How does a #2 hit record become a forgotten oldie?  Another rock and roll mystery!
