I was a DJ back in the seventies in New Jersey. I held a mic cord and rapped well before it was put on wax. As a 15 year old, the VERY first record I ever bought was a 45rpm single of “that’s the way of the world “. It still hits the same for me. One of the greatest recordings of all time, by one of the greatest bands of all the time
I wrote an email to Maurice years ago and thanked him for encouraging me through his music. I group up in a household that told me nothing but bad things about myself. So, I'd listen to EWF and got the encouragement I desperately needed and got me and my young son out of that house. My life has been just fine ever since.
Thank you, MAURICE WHITE for doing your part to help tame mankind with your gift and talent and for producing EWF to be the soundtrack behind our lives. Your legacy is sealed.
I was introduced to E.W.F by my friend who played the keyboard back in 1979 I was a drummer I got hooked on this song the very first time I heard it I've been a fan until this very day 2022 . This the baddest band ever in my book! Mr.Maurice White had a very unique voice nobody and I mean nobody can duplicate his voice! Of course phillip had that high tenor voice like no other the two of them was made for each other with their different sound which complimented each other not to mention the baddest band ever! Those Phoenix horn section was a beast!! R.I.P maurice white. 🙏🙏
I had heard people refer to Earth Wind & Fire's album That's The Way of the World being the soundtrack from the movie of the same name. It's such a gift to watch this video of the opening scene.
Marty I actually like the movie. Its not really all about them but more about Harvey Keitel who was their producer. It’s was still pretty good to me. Yes every song was from the LP.
Not only did I see them multiple times, but I lived across the street from Verdine with saxophonist Benny Golson, and was able to attend several studio sessions in LA in the mid eighties. I also attended sold out concerts and was always backstage. Greatest R & B band in history!
I was on a bus in the Bronx on my way home from school the first time I heard Shining Star and have been EWF fan ever since nobody made music the way they did that's when bands ruled
Here yeah they would. Not gonna happen. Too much money and control is this BS hip hop. Which breaks our community down and not loving one another. Crazyyyyy.
Where Can The Entire Very Special version be Found?? If Anyone has information, PLEASE POST. ❤ RIP to the members of Earth,Wind and Fire who have transitioned. Would Love to See this in its Entirety.!!! Real Musicians, writing, composing, Playing Real Instruments and Killing It 🎵🎻🎺🎸🥁📯 ❤ RIP Charles Stepney ❤

Eu vi uma apresentação deles no Brasil em 1980: tinha 14 anos. Minha mãe, com muito sacrifício arrumou o dinheiro para o ingresso (nessa época ela comprava roupas para eu e meus trrês irmãos uma vez por ano, no Mappin, em 12X no carnê). E lá fui eu, ver um espetáculo que após 42 anos ainda é inesquecível!!!!! PS. o Verdine White solando o baixo no ar, perpendicular ao solo foi demais...
Marshall, yes it is. The movie is actually a low-budget film, but it was pretty damn good in my opinion. Check it out when you can and let me know what you think. The ending it the BOMBBBBB....... . It is not really about them, but their producer in the movie who is played by Harvey Keitel, and his partner who is played by Charles Stepney who was their real-life producer. Maurice was brilliant to release the album before the movie which saved to album. We all know what happened to the album. A MONSTER HITTTTTTT......

I am Phillip Bailey and wrote all music for earth,wind and fire
Well said
Finding the albums as a kid changed my life for sure
Unbelieveable!! All this music I’ve listened to over decades, and no group can compare!!
Best. Band. EVER. (Memories of seeing EWF in concert for the very first time... as a Senior in High School. Amazing!!!) 👍🏽🎶💜
Earth, Wind & Fire is the greatest R&B group EVER! ‘Love Always’ Matthew 5:44
"THERE WILL ALWAYS BE MUSIC LIKE THIS, JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES AND REMEMBER, THAT'S ALL YOU HAVE TO DO" !!!
Forever Rest in Peace Maurice White, Andrew Woolfolk and Fred White.
The best band in the land
still one of my fav songs of all time
I loved Maurice White. The joy he brought into my life, and this world is incalculable.
I was introduced to E.W.F by my friend who played the keyboard back in 1979

Yes, big time!! They are in my Top 5 favorite groups, but closest to #1. I have all of their albums. (I'm 66).
This is my group Earth Wind and 🔥
I was blessed to see them live in London 1982..I was 18
Maybe the best EW&F song ever !
Maybe one of the most beautiful songs of all time. This is the first I ever knew that there was a film!
@Rae Lynn I Can probably send you a copy via Wetransfer
@@mixmagician Hi I appreciate this thanks.

That bass line!💯👌🏾❤️🥹
Best music in the world and to this day it bumps
I was on a bus in the Bronx on my way home from school the first time I heard Shining Star and have been EWF fan ever since nobody made music the way they did that's when bands ruled
Maurice White was of the most purest soulful voices ever. Period. Peace my brother.
I wish he were literally my brother.
Music back then could be so uplifting. Music today is dangerous and evil
Grew up listening to earth wind and fire, they were my very best band and this is my all time favourite tune. I still get goose bumps when I hear it 🙏
Most beautiful song
Amazes me about how many people do not know this was an actual movie and the album even says it's a sound track to a movie,lol
Forse, il più bel regalo che Ci hanno trasmesso..... grazie E W & F 🤗
When music took on a special meaing a completely different time
I remember listening to this when i was little in the basement with my older brother and his friends. Love this song Real music 💯 5:33
The best song ever !!!!!!! Universal Love ❤🙏💫❤🙏💫❤🙏💫❤🙏💫🛸🛸🛸🛸🛸 Thank you ! Maurice and the others . Sisters and Brothers ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I wish they'd give the late Charles Stepney his due respect on this.
I totally agree with you.
He’s in the film. He’s the one that answers the phone
It’s his song
THey were on a whole different plane so to speak!!! There own private frequency if you will!! Damn!!!
One of my favorites! 💖
Truly a classic jewel of a masterpiece!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ ✨️
I have never seen this nor did I know that it existed. Thank you. I love EWF ❤
My Favorite band of all time!!!
My favorite band ❤️❤️❤️🥰
Luv that band
No comments after that
Imagin some people start making music like this again. They would take over the world with music.
Here yeah they would. Not gonna happen. Too much money and control is this BS hip hop. Which breaks our community down and not loving one another. Crazyyyyy.
I saw them in 1984. One of the best shows I have ever seen.
Amazing bass line¡¡¡Maurice White and friends¡¡¡
Classic 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Maurice white rip your talents will be missed you were a musical and lyrical genius.
Love this, so much, seen them twice in the mid 70's, Springfield Civic Center, one of the shows was the best show I've ever seen.
just outstanding ( the best ) of times
No there will never be music like this again, but we have the music documented so listen to it, enjoy it because it's time has passed like all things

D'accordo pra vc muito. Tambem, eu amo Brasil. Moro em Chicago dos estados unidos.
Pure harmony¡¡
This is music!!!
They brought it¡¡LET THE MUSIC PLAY¡¡
The rehearsal music is better than any music today. I wonder what they have in the vault?
😅 That's funny!
Anyone rocking this sound tonight
Wow so many memories, I remember being in a Band, getting into the old conversion Van.... heading to Gigs... EWF forever ♥️
Lol. The old vans. Wowwww
Oh my this music
Off the record 🌍🌬️🔥 that's the way of the world
Yes i don't understand how we got away from natural rhythm and real music
It became cheaper for producers to bang on synthesizers and use voice enhancers.
Love Earth Wind & 🍃 and 🔥
Esse vídeo vai ficar sempre comigo lembro desse dia hoje com meus 57 anos jamais vou esquecer essa melhor banda do meus tempos ...
I have to get this flick on dvd
Jerry I may be able to Wetransfer you a copy
Maurice White è un genio assoluto!!
It's the lyrics of the songs back in the day that's make them so memorable. Today most lyrics are trashy
Man love it! Thanks for sharing
So young so beautiful ❤
YOOOOOOO!!! What is this! Where did you dig this up? This was awesome! Thank you!
@Ron S I have the whole original movie if you want a copy.
I would love a copy of this movie
Nothing finer. ❤️
Gold.
There always seems my gold age i love it
What a great voice
...the best part of the movie
Music today isn’t music .
Classic
Kemper arena Kansas City 90s great fantastic show
Wished I’d seen them
O início da melhor Banda do Funk do mundo.
Cool video. Different shit. Great song.
Thank you much @RaythanielGFC
Where can this movie be found? Never heard of it. Thanks.
So there really is a movie that goes with this awesome music???

Let me share.
It's public, you should be able to share it.
you've got a subscriber............. just what the doctor ordered 😀
Ok so is this a real movie? Or what? Harvey Keitel?
Yes, it's called "That's The Way Of The World"
Yeah, I was like “is that Harvey Keitel?!
Great opening to a shitty movie no one saw. Footage of EW&F creating their classic album is the only highlight.
