Need help finding an Earth Wind and Fire song

It is an instrumental, has xylophone in it and sum humming "Aaah". If anyone can find this song, I would love it.

This is called "Sun Goddess", with Ramsey Lewis.

hmmm ... Does it have a 70's, 80's or a later sound ? Is it a slowjam or uptempo groove ?
The xylophone-sound might be the kalimba-instrument which Maurice White plays

I found so far a few instrumental tracks. The first one has that kalimba-sound.

Here's the studio-version




Other instrumentals :




The mighty "Faces" from 1980




On EW&F's "All 'N' All"-album is a brief instrumental interlude which could be it.
I remember the title has something like "Marketplace" in there.

Thanks for looking. It is a mid tempo song. It is none of the songs listed, I don't think. It might be sun goddess, but I can't tell cause it is a live version

Or could it be "Caribou" from the album "Open Your Eyes"? I couldn't find it on U-Tube, if need be I'll upload unless you know this ain't song.

You're welcome. I posted the studio-version of "Sun Goddess" too up there, but that one was originally recorded by jazzpianist Ramsey Lewis.
Have you any possible direction if your search sounds like a 70's or 80's-track, or maybe from their later era ?

None of those songs. It is an instrumental and most likely from the 70s. I so appreciate everyone trying to help

Could it be "Zanzibar" from the 'Head To The Sky' album?
