Mint Condition - Love's Holiday (EWF Cover)

Mint Condition covering Earth Wind and Fire's song "Love's Holiday" - It gets a little jammy towards the end, but I still think it's an amazing cover.
Performed on "The Bridge" which is a feature from AOL Black Voices.

[@tdenoon78]

Peep how they kept changing up the key during the guitar solo at the end. These boys are incredible!!

[@rojoy2]

This is REAL R&B!!! When artists were actually musicans and played their instruments not like today where everything is done in the studio. For us who appreciated the area from the last 70's from Earth, Wind, and Fire, Midnight Starr, Gap Band, SoS Band, Skyy, Maze and others. Mint Condition was later but falls into this ELITE category. Thank you for the memories because there are no R&B groups performing today. Thanks for posting!

[@rthominc]

Stokley has to be the greatest and most underrated voice in R&B in the last 20 years......what an awesome talent!!!

[@ladyvann6136]

SOOO TRUE !

[@jaysecure7211]

rthominc couldn't agree more!!

[@chaykuh]

Can't hear the heavy autotune he's using here? Come on...

[@Applemylove]

FACT!

[@rtoriq]

Thank you for the troof!! Lol! Seriously tho, he has an amazing voice, crazy skatting skills, killer drumming skills & stage energy. There's definitely artists around his age bracket that they should get more recognition than!

[@lennylenz]

Stokley is not only a Great singer he is just as good a percussionist!!!

[@Mistyblu4U]

He's not trying to imitate EWF. Artists have their own style. I appreciate that. AWESOME!

I'm a "Mint Head" anything they perform is pure perfection. .

[@griffinrose2011]

In my opinion the most underrated band in the music industry. I just charge it to the game. Real talent doesn't always get it's due recognition.

[@MrsFlyChicky]

Yes, and 2 thumbs up in 2020!!

[@DennisWilsonAhot16with]

There isn't a band today that could perform that opening harmony-wise. Just amazing.....

[@obgduccestrong6436]

Stokley, one of the greatest to ever hold a microphone!

[@lele19691]

Stokley...Totally Killed it!....Props to the female BV too! X

[@MsTreynatra]

LOVE Stokley's voice! It's so unique

[@William_sJazzLoft]

That's great that Mint Condition included some EW&F in their repertoire. They definitely did the Love's Holiday tune justice and then some.

[@EarthWindandFirepower0990]

SOMEWHERE,SOMEHOW,MAURICE IS SMILING PROUD.I JUST KNOW HE IS.

[@alusainc1]

The lady is Ann Nesby's daughter. Saw them in Columbia, MD at the Columbia Jazz Fest and they are always a phenomenal group. Love them! True talents who can sing AND play at least two instruments. They all write the words to their songs too. GETTING PAID....and deservedly so. (Ann Nesby used to be with Sounds of Blackness and her daughter in this video has a POWERFUL voice. She is quite the singer).

[@heartstrings110]

She’s great!

[@carra324]

Excellent information on this talented lady, thank you!

[@ANTHONYPRESTON]

DAMN! There is no replacing Maurice but M.C. did this justice! I always thought of M.C. as the next generation of EWF (minus the horns) :-) Great remake!

[@dwaynerandolph3565]

I’m years late on giving my take on this rendition of my favorite song of all time, LOVE’S HOLIDAY. Mint Condition is my favorite R&B Group. These guys killed it ! Hats off to you Stokely & RIP Maurice white 🙏🏾

[@dunha11]

Mint Condition are the best R&B group ever. That cover of Love's Holiday is awesome. If all covers was made until today, could be like this cover... More old-school singers would be happy today...

[@JamilaV1881]

I just need y'all to understand the musicianship and the level of excellence Mint Condition resides. They modulated 5011 different times in 8 measures and I just about died. I'm talking to y'all from the other side of creation. Shiiiddd

[@bigtimmy7846]

Thank you Maurice White for your beautiful musicianship and the inspiration for my sound.

[@michaledavissr.4661]

They even changed tempo @4:06 like EWF REALLY IMPRESSED the average listener wouldn't notice or care . I love EWF but I think it's time we give give MC their due . They are not EWF little brother . They are their own brand (band),nuff said.

[@eltonfisher6267]

+Michale Davis Sr. True indeed

[@tonyhouston9388]

You're right. They put their spin on it and took it up a half step.

[@robinhawkins5861]

Yes.. They did change the key.. I love this!! We need music like this again! True R&B.. Awesome! ❤

[@Talis.Girard]

Changed key not tempo.

[@jonathanboudreaux2789]

Best band of 'my" generation! #70s kid The elements (Earth, Wind & Fire) great, Mint Condition took the baton and ran with it. If only Tony, Toni, Tone had stayed together we could have had a serious rivalry.
