[@shellieroberto]

LET’S GROOVE is my fav.

[@sinenominecc]

That is one top shelf list, Raymond.

[@kimberlydiamond716]

September 💯

[@pianojonathan]

I love Fantasy, After The Love Has Gone, In The Stone, Serpentine Fire, Shining Star, September, Got To Get You Into My Life (one of the best Beatles covers) and other songs too. What an epic band, man! Glad you discovered them for yourself. Let’s Groove and Boogie Wonderland I tend not to use unless i was having a party or something, for some reason never got quite as into those more commercial/in the club hits they had but those are still miles and miles above most other bands’ best songs so yeh.. :D

[@lisagraham2944]

Listen to after the love is gone

[@lynnsmith3976]

Oh my dear - you just uncovered a gold mine of great music with Earth, Wind & Fire. Enjoy as we will

[@laurallama73]

Gold mine, yes!!!❤🎶🎶✨✨✨

[@johnfoster5295]

That's Philip Bailey on lead vocals. He has a duet with Phil Collins called Easy Lover you should check out.

[@5inaroweboat]

I know the song… never knew he was from E W and F thou. I love music so much.

[@rhondamcbath6279]

I love their song "EASY LOVER", WOW 😮 What a great and all around song. If you want your mood to go from ok good, to way out there just WOW, WOW, WOW, then this is the song to listen to, yep that's right, once you start hearing this song it won't be long before your up and moving lol..Enjoy, I mean it!! Seriously Enjoy!!!

[@Bambi_Harris_Author]

And he sang 'walking on the chinese wall' for the karate kid 2 soundtrack haha, funny the things you remember, but i like that song too!

[@kayomholt-montague7661]

Yes! Absolutely! Philip Bailey has one of the best voices ever. The Weeknd main singer reminds me of Bailey!

[@lindabescript999]

More please. September, Sing a Song, That's the Way of the World, Shining Star, and the list goes on......

[@scm021374]

Isn't shining star The Manhattans?

[@lindabescript999]

@@scm021374 Yes, they both do a song with this title, but the songs are completely different.

[@DJDOGG31]

Yes “That’s the way of the World” should be next. Earth Wind & Fire has a lot of great songs.

[@rhondamcbath6279]

I agree with you 💯%, I think that their song, "That's the Way of the World", is their best song out of all of their tons of songs. I absolutely love this song!! So great!!! Thanks for suggesting this beautiful song, I hope JayVee will play this for us all!! Have a great day friend! 😊🌍😊

[@marlenewilloughby196]

My all time favorite of Earth Wind And Fire. Love every single song they performed. All hits! They are still performing. Absolutely amazing group.

In 1978 my first apartment, listening to this while I cleaned. I can't think of any current bands that have this much talent. They just don't produce this type of perfection anymore.

“September” is the happiest song in the world! 😄 Hard to go wrong with EWF.

[@b1bmsgt]

Hey, I'm first!! Hey JV, you've discovered some REAL music here!! EWF is the GREATEST!! There's a lot more where this came from!!

[@cici7333]

Yes! They never fail to uplift me. Incredible talent.

[@rachellyadao531]

EWF is the greatest band! My all time favorite song is “That’s the way of the world” !

[@23skidoo46]

If you really wanna groove? Give a listen to "Let's Groove" or September. amazing grooves.

[@tracidevine4591]

I just love your reactions. It shows that you do have a love for 70's music and you enjoy it as much as we did growing up.

Earth Wind and Fire for ever !!!!! I Love the Philip Bailey's voice !!!!!!!!! Hello From FRANCE

[@colibri1]

They had hit after hit after hit in the seventies, and they frequently toured with the rock group Chicago.

[@myownchannel247]

EWF is great, check out Reasons, September and That's the Way of the World, you can't miss.

[@brilicusgaming6922]

My dad introduced me to Earth, Wind and Fire great group. Everytime we went out of town we would be on the highway just blasting EWF. My dad passed in 2015 and I listen to this group when I miss him.

[@steelmagnolia3350]

My dad also LOVED EWF and started my lifelong love for them. He also passed in 2015. For awhile after his death, it was hard for me to listen to them but now I am back and their songs bring me so much comfort. ❤️❤️

[@cici7333]

They are so amazing! They still hold up. An excellent rabbit hole. ☮️

Bro, you just experienced the greatest band ever.

[@pixarian]

I grew up on this band, my Dad loves them. They have so many great songs.

[@lara314]

Fantasy and September were big mainstream hits for EWF but the band has SO MANY other great songs worth checking out. Hope you'll do more!

Man, I haven't heard this since I don't know when. These guys had a real groove. Smooooth

It's always a shock to me when I find out grown people (i.e. not children) don't know artists like EW&F. Welcome 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@57micheleoc]

All Earth Wind and Fire is great!!!! Thanks.

[@jonm1114]

Earth, Wind & Fire were great. Their vocals were always impressive. Try "September" for another happy, upbeat tune, and then "After the Love is Gone" for a slow tune that will tear at your heartstrings. You won't be disappointed.

[@cadmaw]

Saw them live in the UK. Their set was amazing... flying around the stage 60 feet up in harnesses whilst performing. Really tight on the harmonies.

[@codenamekidnextdoor6575]

Legends period!!! Earth wind and fire enough said 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@angelajakem366]

Another great rabbit hole! They were super popular and deserved every bit of it!

[@GrowingUpJersey]

Reasons, Shine Star, September, Boogie Wonderland, That's the Way of The World, Got To get You Into My Life. find a performance video if you can.

I find EWF expansive, and always makes me feel great when I listen to them. Surprised this is your first time hearing them, glad you like though.

[@otisdylan9532]

There are a lot of good EW&F songs, but the 2 that I recommend the most are "Shining Star" and "September".

[@missblondie2393]

Love your channel and you have an ear for music. My son who is a professional DJ, always includes Earth, Wind and Fire in his sets and as he says their "Fire"

[@jeanniejacksonsmith6204]

I used to adore the groove of this song growing up....Phillip Baileys voice was beautiful....I used to get lost in rhythm of this song. And it is still wonderful.

[@sonyavasilieff5953]

I saw Earth, Wind & Fire in concert in the 70's....one of the BEST concert's I've ever seen.

[@Tessiefaye]

The best group EVER, so versatile and talented.

[@samoanfreak3455]

The bass player carried that rift like a BOSS🔥

[@thedocofrock1890]

ewf was one of the most amazing bands to ever exist. they had numerous hits at the top of the charts in the late 70's and early 80'sand i still have the vinyl of the album you have pictured without a scratch on it.maurice white and philip bailey were the main songwriters and vocalists and with their horn section had about 12 members on stage at once. absolutely epic. later on phillip bailey got together with phil collins and did a song called easy lover you may want to check out. huge hit and all around great tune i will leave you a link if you want to give it a listen:kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJy1fIdsiZWEgsk

[@JonezyVhee]

This made me so happy because this is my favorite song from them that I discovered on my own!!

[@colibri1]

I now like lots of their songs, but when I was a kid in the seventies, my favorite of theirs was "Serpentine Fire" from 1977.

[@AGENT99937]

You cant go wrong with Earth Wind and Fire. “Getaway” is a great listen

[@jeffreyquartier3071]

I highly recommend I'll Write a Song For You... one of Philip Bailey's finest performances.

These guys were simply awesome in concert. Their costumes (complete with platform shoes) and moves were just joyous. Fantastic in the roller rink and wonderful on the dance floor; what else do you need?

[@JAMESMOORE-gq4vv]

What up JV, they are legendary, I seen them in 1976 & 77, best concerts I've ever seen, all I can say is play the Live album Gratitude from start to finish.

If you EVER get to see this band live, GO GO GO. Omg they are incredible, I've seen them twice and I can tell you you will never see another person who LOVES what he does as much as Verdine White. The man is like silk, the way he plays, the sheer joy on his face. I'll never forget that, he's thrilling to watch. ❤🎸 Philip Bailey's voice, makes me crazy. It's SO beautiful, God gave him a treasure. ❤ (His duet with Phil Collins, Easy Lover, must be seen). Lastly, RIP Maurice White, thank you for sharing your talents. You were incredible. 🙏

[@smcwarfield]

I saw them in concert in the mid-70s at Michigan State University probably promoting this album. They put on one of the BEST concert shows I have ever seen!

[@edgarfortier4355]

Phillip Bailey singing falsetto and Maurice White lead singer and founder of the group. Maurice White wrote almost all of the lyrics and instrumental arrangements. He graduated from Booker T High in Memphis, TN. He was the drummer in the Ramsey Lewis Trio before founding Earth, Wind and Fire.

[@bridgetmccracken1381]

More of them please!!! I saw them in the 70's, 90's and early 2000's! Please react to their song "Reasons"!!!

[@ujimajame4601]

Are you kidding? Earth, Wind & Fire was the number one band in the '70's and '80's hands down! You MUST check out them doing "Reasons" and "Devotion" from their live "Gratitude" album (which, itself, sold in the millions) as well as "Keep Your Head To The Sky" and "September." Please check out Minnie Riperton's "Lovin' You" and "Reasons" and revisit The Beatles - the number one band from the '60's: I think "I Want To Hold Your Hand", "This Boy" and "Twist and Shout" best represent their early years.

The musical timing of Earth Wind and Fire is that of perfection!! The talent of all members was exceptional.

[@williamberven-ph5ig]

I'm a 65 yo white male. In my youth there were 2 camps with regard to music. Rock, (which through the 70's was phenomenal ), and R&B / disco. This, of course, was of the latter. (Equality as phenomenal). I was a rare lover of both. This, young man, was our music. It warms my heart to see young people, especially young black people discovering a musical heritage as rich as it comes.

[@Sirie7206]

This is SOUL music! Undeniably one of the best sounds in the world. Such a beautiful song. Keep Your Head to the Sky is another beautiful song!

Maurice Whitehead was lead singer he passwd then Philip Bailey took over. Fantastic voice.Loveee this Band ❤🎤🎼🎵🎶

[@2zxodcfm]

Saw this wonderful band play Maple Leave Gardens around 1975 with founder Maurice White at the helm. Simply awesome, they were and are even though Maurice, their heart and soul had to shut himself down far too soon in his career. So many great songs but my fave has always been That's The Way Of The World, the instant classic which is unmatchable for any cover attempt. That lead singer with the sailing voice here is Philip Bailey. Such a talent himself and still performing with them last time I checked.

[@MsZenT]

Hi Jayvee! Earth Wind and Fire (we call them The Elements) are outstanding. One of THE classic bands along with Maze featuring Frankie Beverly. A truly classic band is a band that doesn't have to come up with new music, but still every concert is sold out, even after 30 years. CLASSIC!!!! Peace...Be Safe!
