Earth Wind And Fire

Earth, Wind & Fire (EWF) is an American band that has spanned the musical genres of R&B, soul, funk, jazz, disco, pop, rock, Latin, and African. They were one of the most successful bands of the 1970s.[ Rolling Stone called them "innovative, precise yet sensual, calculated yet galvanizing" and declared that the band "changed the sound of black pop"…[/quote]

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.

20 Tracks recorded by different artists either produced or written by Earth Wind and Fire. Dee Dee Bridgewater ‘Tequila Mockingbird’, Alton McClain and Destiny ‘ Answer To My Prayer’, Pockets ‘Got To Find my Way’ , Valarie Carter ‘City Lights’, Sylvia St James ‘let Love Groove Me’ and Emotions ‘There’ll Never Be Another Moment’ sit alongside instrumentals Ramsey Lewis ‘Sun Goddess’, Gene Harris ‘Theme For Relana’ and Caldera ‘Ancient Source’. A great tribute to one of the album great bands.

From the vaults of Atlantic, Atco, Cotillion, Reprise & Warner Brothers, highlighting the period 1968-75. A selection of Warner Brothers-related funk – but featuring some killer numbers that move way past the hits! This is one of the funkiest compilations we've ever heard from a major label – and it's proof that deep down in their catalogs, the majors were working just as hard as the indies to come up with some killer slabs of funk, as you'll hear in this set of 20 gems recorded between the years 1968 and 1974! Many of these numbers were only issued on 45s – or on long out of print LPs – and even though there's a few numbers on here that you may know, the set's also got a number of others that you probably don't, as it even surprised us with some of its funky goodies!

Truly tremendous work from saxophonist Kamasi Washington – a set that may well even blow away his groundbreaking Epic album – given the scope of soul and spirit in the music! As with the previous project, this one's double-length, but maybe feels even more fitted to the mode – as Washington leads this incredible ensemble that unifies a jazz group, orchestra, and choir – all at a level that might even top some of Alice Coltrane's early 70s albums for Impulse! There's a richness in vision here right from the start – music that knows what it is, where it's going, and what it can accomplish – very personal, but also very welcoming too – just the right sort of spirit to help get the nation back on track! Washington blows tenor throughout – and gets great help from Cameron Graves on piano, Brandon Coleman on organ and keyboards, and Miles Mosley on bass – whose work alone really seems to drive the proceedings!
