EWF w/ Raphael Saddiq?

Hey, anyone heard this new EWF song with Mr. Saddiq? I was wakin up last Thursday morning and heard somethin real cool and mellow on the radio. I heard a few vocals: Saddiq, (I could recognize his voice right away) and I heard a coupla "Ohh-ohh-ohh's" and a few moans, familiar utterance. Then a couple of seconds later as it went off, I heard Tom Joyner say that it was EARTH WIND & FIRE!!!! I said HOLY SHIT!!!!! I jumped outta bed and tried to call people about this and see where I could get this. Does anyone have this? Has anyone heard it? I GOTTA hav it!!!!! nutty
They did WHAT??!.... disbelief

I've heard this song, they did a nice job with it. It's from EWF new album but I don't know when it will be released. EWF seem to be real active these past two years since they released an album just two years ago called The Promise, which was very good IMO.

The song is called 'Show Me The Way' and it is the new Earth Wind and Fire single.Raphael Saadiq sings the song with Maurice,and I think he also co-wrote/produced it.It's from the upcoming EW&F CD 'Elevated',which is due in February 2005.There's a cool new EW&F fansite that you should check out...

I agree. The Promise was a good CD. I can't wait for another release.


Of course, I didn't know this though from the Grammys:

Best Traditional R&B Vocal Performance
(For solo, duo, group or collaborative performances, with vocals. Singles or Tracks only.)
• Hold Me
Earth, Wind & Fire
Track from: The Promise
[Kalimba Records]

Yeah,I just joined the forum as well.It looks kinda quiet now,but with a new CD on the way,I'm sure this will change.Another cool EW&F forum is...

www.voy.com/38757/

I've been posting here for years,and the members of EW&F sometimes visit this forum.I once received an email from Ralph Johnson (!),who was commenting on something I wrote.

I'm really impressed with the number of live EW&F DVDs that are available.My only hope is that they will someday release a live DVD from one of their 70s tours....maybe the 1975 tour,or the 1978 tour (when they used all the magic tricks and special effects).Fingers crossed.

They were also nominated last year for "Hold Me",the second single from their 'Promise' album.I predict that 2005 will be a big year for them...


***A New CD titled 'Illumination' (due in February 2005)
***A new concert DVD from their latest tour with Chicago (due in early 2005)
***Another world tour with Chicago (beginning in June 2005)
***A Broadway musical based on EW&F's music
