If you wanna see a terrific Earth Wind and Fire fansite,complete with reviews of all their albums,go to...

www.homdrum.no/ewf/


To the left of the screen,click on "discography".When you get to the albums,just click on the album cover to go to the review.

Kind of sad to see EWF now... without Maurice white... Phillip Bailey lost his Falsetto skills, they sound like a really bad vegas act now,im not dissin the band.. but you gotta admit they lost thier flair as they once did. but start off with Last days and time.. and work up..smile im sure David would agree with some of my points. smile

Actually,Maurice White joined the fellas recently at a show in Japan.He has confirmed that he will be joining them onstage for a few shows this summer (on the East Coast and their LA show in July).But yes,Philip Bailey can't hit those same notes,but he still sounds pretty good.It's kinda rough for him because,during most of their concerts,he has to sing his vocals and the parts that Maurice used to sing.They sound great in concert these days.They even have a Latin percussionist now.

what hurt them more than anything is losing there Original Core Members.the Sheldon Reynolds Era was hard for me to take.His Voice didn't blend well&they became a Good Band as to the Great band they were during there Peak IMHO.they are still the Greatest Band Ever to Me but they fell off in the Studio after 81&on Stage during the 90's IMHO.still I can't wait for the New Album&tour.Phllip had to double His Dutys&it caught up with him,but in his Hey Day He was Tops on the Falsetto.
