The band’s two albums for Warner Bros., dating from 1970 and 1971. Both made the US Top 200, with the single ‘Love Is Life’ creeping into the Top 100. These recordings launched Earth, Wind & Fire’s long and successful career. Digitally remastered and slipcased.
The second collection covering hit singles from the '70s top funk and soul band, Earth, Wind & Fire. This anthology has recently been supplanted by a box set covering virtually all of their big Columbia singles and some early Warners material. If you enjoyed their disco and late '70s cuts more than the early tracks, this anthology is worth getting.
