I was born in the 70s and, to be fair, from a 2021 perspective, everything about the visuals is surprising and delightful or humorous. Yes, they are costumes. But also, yes, they "are not wearing that on a daily basis," which--c'mon--that's just a very funny idea on its own. I enjoy being able to re-experience so much great music with these young men, and am grateful they let us share in their genuine joy.

[@yoliemclaughlin9492]

Many of these groups dressed in flamboyant style. Every group had their own style. Next time do After The Love Has Gone...my favorite by them.😊😄

Just remember that this was one of the largest bands and horn sections in musical history and the legendary lead singer still carried them. Perfection.

[@IAmInfinitus208]

Their drummer, Phillip Bailey, also worked with Phil Collins with a song called "Easy Lover"! Check that out!

[@rantsandfaves]

im in my 30's & never knew that. Thank you for letting me know. I love this channel for that!

[@teresawhetzel9694]

Loved that song, always made me want to dance

[@dxwallace55]

"Easy Lover" was a fav of mine. It was on Phillip Bailey's solo album "Chinese Wall". Phil Collins produced much of if not all that album and you can hear it in the drums and so forth. Phil Collins does some background vocals on a few of the tracks. The "Easy Lover" video was a lot of fun to watch, those two were just having fun. If you ever saw Genesis video "Turn it on Again", it's a similar kind of video, just following musicians getting ready for performance. Great stuff that it's a shame people forgot about.....

[@bethanysmith2838]

AWESOME song!!!!

Yes Sir. And teenage men goof and talk s***. And I am sure Phil Collin's love's the exposure they got for him 39 years after his hit song!

[@explodingnightmareproducti5612]

This proves that video really did kill the radio star. Just because of these obviously dated 70's clothing, EWF would have never been given the chance today even they could DESTROY any of the BS that passes as music today.

[@denisefallin8042]

Made in the 70's. Fantastic songwriters. Got to see them in person about 3 years ago. Still rocking it. Lead singer's son took his place when he passed. Let me tell you, EVERYBODY was on their feet dancing. You cannot sit still listening to them. Fantastic brass, percussion, just amazing. Lord have mercy they are still IT

[@msajk4ever982]

I had to really think about why you all never heard of EWF and other classics then it dawned on me. We heard our parent’s music when they blasted it in the house during family celebrations or on Saturday mornings when we were cleaning. Now with everyone wearing earbuds and earphones, the younger ones don’t know what the older ones are listening to so this music is all new to them. Even as we ride in the car, everyone is listening to their own genre of music. Remember when we couldn’t touch the dial in the car without begging first? Lol I’m sure your parents have some of this music in their playlists. EWF was my favorite band back in the day; saw them perform several times. Their live shows were awesome and they also included magical illusions.

[@christywright4113]

Exactly. I love this channel but you guys must do some research before you post. This band is truly one of the best ever. So..do yourself a little research prior to posting a response so you don't come across as being completely uneducated with whom you are listening to. Ok. Love the channel but be prepared. Enough said.

[@SnowdropWood]

The lack of 'preparation' is precisely what makes these videos fresh, fun, and appealing time after time. The twins' reactions are authentic, because they react to the songs through a pure lens, not through a lens of cultural context. YT is crammed with planned, scripted, polished, phony, cookie cutter tripe. These young men are a breath of fresh air, and they do NOT come across as uneducated. They come across as real.

[@mariefc8504]

This band was HUGE back in the day, immensely talented with so many hits. Check out Isaac Hayes "Shaft", you won't be sorry.

Dont forget his face youngsters, he is a true legend and his music has been in my life nearly my whole life!

[@vanessap2461]

Earth, Wind and Fire was an extremely popular band in the 70s and 80s. The band showcased 9 members (not including their fabulous horn section called the Phenix Horns). Their founder, Maurice White, studied astrology, African sounds, jazz, pop and soul to create the band’s sound. He also introduced a small wooden African instrument called the Kalimba to the band and it became a part of their unique sound. Their history is amazing and the clothes they wore on stage, reflected the spirit and essence of the music they created. It may seem a little strange to you today but in the 70s everything about Earth, Wind and Fire was, as you would say “cold.” I’m glad you enjoyed it. Take a listen to their earlier work (from 1973-1978) it’s even better (to me). P. S. They also worked with Phil Collins.😉

[@jamesrawlins735]

I love Phenix Horns and they were definitely part of the EW&F magic, but we also have to give love to Seawind Horns, who also did a lot of recording with EW&F (the I Am album for one)

"The Earth, Wind and Fire horn section played with Phil Collins on Face Value in 1981 and the following year on the Genesis album Abacab. In 1984, Collins returned the favor by cowriting and recording "Easy Lover" for Earth, Wind and Fire singer Philip Bailey. They shot a goofy video (check out Phil's amazing sweatervest) and released it on Bailey's 1984 album Chinese Wall. It probably surprised even them when it hit Number Two on the Hot 100." --Rolling Stone, 2013
