This song is some great fusion of pretty much every American genre up to the point of its existence as well as afterwards.

I used to know how to play the sax riff.

Classic! Somehow it gets played on the radio just enough to keep being exciting.

Remove the vocals and horns and you've got a virtual outtake from Ege Bamyasi.

Classic. One of many great songs featured in GTA:SA, too (Master Sounds 98.3)!
― Lostandfound, Monday, 4 February 2008 01:57 (seventeen years ago)
yeah just completely classic
War's greatest hits album is pretty much all gold too, makes me feel homesick, this shit bumped southern California summers when I was a kid

Classic. Especially if it comes on just as you get in the car.

could 'low rider' be the song to finally unite the ILM masses in universal praise??
― haitch, Monday, 4 February 2008 02:41 (seventeen years ago)
Probably lots of similar songs that do so, except for random trolls and Geir.

Classic.

Never ever been a more classic. RIP Papa Dee Allen (Big Boy low ridin' in that video). Has a harmonica sounded so funky before or since?
― Bobbi Peru, Monday, 4 February 2008 06:43 (seventeen years ago)
always loved that harmonica/sax riff is in major and bass is in minor key
― m bison, Monday, 4 February 2008 06:53 (seventeen years ago)
Yeah, I can't imagine anyone not digging this song, unless they have a negative association due to something horrible happening to them or a loved one while the song happened to be playing in the background or something...

Like, "my first born child was run over and maimed by a low riding vehicle"?
― Bobbi Peru, Monday, 4 February 2008 07:00 (seventeen years ago)
Yeah, you know...or "Low Rider" was playing on the radio when my parents told me that they were getting a divorce".
― dell, Monday, 4 February 2008 07:02 (seventeen years ago)
I'd say the first example was worse.
― Lostandfound, Monday, 4 February 2008 09:27 (seventeen years ago)
Classic track.
WWGS?
― Mark G, Monday, 4 February 2008 09:34 (seventeen years ago)
When I imagine this track in my head I like it, but when I actually listen it doesn't live up and is a little flat.
I liked the Marmite ad tho'.
