I grew up listening to them in the 70s! We just really had the best music back then and into the 80s, we were so lucky. The song September by them is one of the best songs ever made. Nobody is making music like this anymore, that just makes you so joyful.

Back in the 70's and 80's many of us rockers were not very accepting of other genres of music (remember diso record burning events?) But 2 groups that even the rockers respected were Earth, Wind, and Fire and Tower of Power. They were both undeniable!

EWF outfits were consciously chosen to represent African royalty. Along with the album covers and many of the song themes, they consistently wanted to show pride in their African ancestry. It was all deliberate and planned out.

Ready to have your mind blown?🤔 Tom Joyner did an interview with Maurice and Philip in the early '80s were the 2 dropped a bombshell by informing the fans that Phillip and Maurice, the 2 alone, did every vocal on the first 4 to 5 Earth Wind & Fire studio albums.🤯 Female singers were hired only when Earth Wind & Fire would perform live in touring.🎤 Philip also said that Maurice has the same high vocal range as he.😳 The interview is on KZbin.🤓

We all love EWF. Cleaning the house, going over family/friends houses. Still, every time we hear EWF we react the same way. Immediately smile, singing, dancing, throwing arms up. Imagine being at the Atlanta Motor Speedway (for over 12 hrs being 1 of 5 black ppl there). The confederate flags, hats, t shirts everywhere. So @ 2am 1 of my friends/coworkers plays parliament. ERRRYBODY lost they're d@mn minds & acted like WE act like when parliament comes on. I was stuck on stupid. I said WTF is this $hit?? What y'all know about some d@mn parliament. My girlfriend said what? Everybody loves them. They knew every word...THEN, there a$$es started a d@mn soul train line. Not me, I just watched like I was just shocked. It didn't matter that they couldn't dance, weren't on beat, nothing. They had so much fun. I had no business being there. Thankfully, my friends watched me @ all times & took great care of me. I couldn't walk away by myself. I didn't find out for hours that my girlfriend's dad (was the general mgr) had security watching me the whole time. They watched me like a hawk the entire time. I thought they were "friends" of them. My dumba$$ didn't even know what was going on.

At least one of y'all has to have never heard the song, or seen the video or live performance, for it to be a legit "reaction". Maybe one or more of you had never seen the video, in which case, just let us know that up front, so we know what's new and to whom. Cheers!
