Years of being the kings of Black pop were taking its toll on Earth, Wind & Fire. A split was inevitable, even if they'd recovered from their early 80's slump. They'd been on top for most of the second half of the 1970's with little real competition. No one stays on top of the pop world forever. They could have concentrated on making quality music and certainly more jazz. Maybe stop touring so much, and occasionally slip in some gimmick to keep the bills paid.

One of the towering figures of 20th century's music, Alabama-born pianist and organist Herman "Sun Ra" Blount (1914) became the cosmic musician par excellence. Despite dressing in extraterrestrial costumes (but inspired by the pharaohs of ancient Egypt) and despite living inside a self-crafted sci-fi mythology (he always maintained that he was from Saturn, and no biographer conclusively proved his birth date) and despite littering his music with lyrics inspired to a self-penned spiritual philosophy (he never engaged in sexual relationships apparently because he considered himself an angel), Sun Ra created one of the most original styles of music thanks to a chronic disrespect for both established dogmas and trendy movements.
