From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
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 are one of the most successful bands of the 20th century.[1][2] Rolling Stone Magazine described them as "innovative, precise yet sensual, calculated yet galvanizing" and declared that the band "changed the sound of black pop".[3]
The band was founded in Chicago by Maurice White in 1969. Other members have included Philip Bailey, Verdine White, Ralph Johnson, Larry Dunn, Al McKay and Andrew Woolfolk. The band has received 20 Grammy nominations; they won six as a group and two of its members, Maurice White and Bailey, won separate individual awards.[2] Earth, Wind & Fire have 12 American Music Awards nominations and four(20) awards.[2] They have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Vocal Group Hall of Fame, received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and sold over 100 million records, making them one of the world's best-selling bands of all time.[4][5][6][7][2][8] Five members of Earth, Wind & Fire were also inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame: Maurice White, Philip Bailey, Verdine White, Larry Dunn and Al McKay.[9] The music industry and fans have bestowed Lifetime Achievement honors from the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (Rhythm & Soul Heritage Award â 2002), NAACP (Hall of Fame â 1994) and the BET Awards (Lifetime Achievement Award â 2002).[2]
Earth, Wind & Fire is known for the dynamic sound of their horn section, their energetic and elaborate stage shows, and the interplay between the contrasting vocals of Philip Bailey's falsetto and Maurice White's tenor.[1] The kalimba (African thumb piano) is played on all of the band's albums.[10] In the 1970s and early 1980s, the band had many hits, including "Shining Star", "That's the Way of the World", "Devotion", "Reasons", "Sing a Song", "Can't Hide Love", "Getaway", "Fantasy", "Love's Holiday", "September", "Boogie Wonderland", "After the Love Has Gone", and "Let's Groove". Two Earth, Wind & Fire classic songs have been inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame: "Thatâs the Way of the World" (2004) and "Shining Star" (2007).[2]
The band is also known as having been the first African-American act to sell out Madison Square Garden and to receive the MSG Gold Ticket Award.[2] President Barack Obama invited Earth, Wind & Fire to perform at the White House for the first social event of the new administration.[2]

Thanks.
Digging your posts.
May the angels sing him home
Let’s Groove will always be one of my top 5 songs.
Summer 1982. My parents played that song until the record wore out!
I’m Listening now. Such a respite from the Cruzers. Love it!!
“Shining Star” has always been one of my favorite tunes. RIP, Mo.
It is the cure for many things! :-)
Yes . This has been a depressing day to see Cruz lies and more lies. This was wonderful. thank you.
Ping! Great timing FRiend
You sound like a whining Barry Manilow fan. Maybe Captain and Tennielle.
At almost 6 feet tall those legs were pretty awesome.
Of course she's 75 now...
I am not a homo.
Yeah, but Muskrat Love. That’s enough to turn you to the dark side. But then there’s “Do That to Me One More Time...”
Rest in peace, Maurice. May you never have a cloudy day.
What the hell is wrong with you? You can’t keep that political crap off a music thread? Give it a fricking rest already.
