      Exactly,this guy must of been living under a rock.I think it’s about getting likes,reactions.This is like saying,I never heard of the Beatles.EWF is a iconic band,that plays world music.He need to do more research about the original members,during their golden Columbia record years.The original “9” was Maurice White,Philip Bailey,Verdine White,Al McKay,Johnny Graham,Ralph Johnson,Fred White,Andrew Wolfork,Larry Dunn.

    Love this funky jazzy group. They covered many genres of music. They had a lot of hits in the 70's-80's such as "Shining Star", "Got To Get You Into My Life", "Boogie Wonderland", "Let's Groove", "Reasons", "Sing A Song", "After The Love Is Gone" etc.

    They had a great stage presence. Their costumes were so colorful and brought the African culture to the audience, imo. Their harmonies were out of this world.their brass section was out of this world, and their energy was out of this world. Salvo,your facial expressions of awe, and joy were just priceless. I loved this band. This rabbit hole is one you would love to go down. Thank you 😊

    I’ve seen them live twice, both times they toured with Chicago. Best concerts I have ever seen. I always smile inside when I hear this song remembering how well Verdine White can dance and kick his legs up while playing that bass, bell bottoms flying! Their live performance was stellar. There is a video here on RUclips “ Chicago & Earth, Wind, Fire live ‘04 at the Greek Theater” . Full concert. These “ old guys” killed it. Both groups still touring on their own this year still.

    Earth Wind & Fire will always put a smile on your face! Along with the other songs mentioned here, give a listen to "I'll Write a Song for You" -- OMG - the buildup of those falsetto vocals!! It's a GORGEOUS love ballad that starts out so softly and builds up as it goes. And of course, you must listen to the dreamy and jazzy "That's The Way of the World." EW&F is a PARTY!

    MORE Earth, Wind and Fire! Such a funky, cool band and high-quality music. 'Fantasy' is a fine tune. The high falsetto voice is Philip Bailey. A song of his you will love is "Easy Lover". It's not EW&F, but Bailey co-wrote it with Phil Collins (who produced his solo album 'Chinese Wall' which had the song) Phil and Philip sing in duet. It is so '80s, funky and the video is very fun and entertaining. Oh, and Collins comes out with a wardrobe suggestion that mimics those of EW&F to Bailey's guffaws of laughter.

    That was my era. I am 66 now. Everbody wanted to be original and Cool. One of the reasons for all the crazy outfits. The magical years of the 70's. It was wild but all good during that time. The songs of so many groups were about love and unity; no angry artists. It was a time in history that I wish all the young people of today could have experienced as we did. Check out Kool & The Gang when you can. Thank you for sharing. Peace...

Their costumes where fantastic, and they all sorts of things on stage. They also had a female band within their group called The Emotions who added to the costume and sound!

    Ah, the 70's were simpler times in many ways. This was a huge hit when I was in high school. Disco was at it's height. Saturday Night Fever was a huge influence. There were a lot of high school dances. My friends and I would practice in one of their garages that they used as a family play room. This was one of my favorite songs to dance to. You could do great things with it. You could be right on the beat or you could easily dance at half time and sort of slow stroll through the song or mix it up.
    I always love your reactions because you just love music and it shows. Thanks.

    I grew up listening to music from the 60's, 70's and 80's. I think it was one of the best times to be young and alive. The fusion and diversity in the music is awesome. Lately, I have discovered a band from Sweden, called "Dirty Loops". They do a fusion of rock, funk and jazz and are totally awesome. Check them out!

    One of my favorites! So fun to roller skate to back in the 70s! ❤

    You would love Boogie Wonderland. Earth Wind and Fire is my favorite group of ALL Time and I've been around a long time and have listened to and gone to a lot of concerts including EWF. They were so talented and crossed so many different genres. It is a deep rabbit hole if you choose to go down it. Boogie Wonderland, Love's Holiday, That's the Way of the World, Reasons and on and on.
