Review
Before the fame, the hits, the million records sold, “Earth Wind and Fire” was a pretty hardcore, raw, funk group…with a slight psychadelic touch. This is when I felt that the group was at their very BEST. Heavy bass lines, killer drum grooves, and less singing (more chanting and harmonizing). Sadly, the group that worked on this album disbanded after the second studio album, which was also completed in 1971. They came back strong with a new group and all, but never really returned to this sound. Anyway, great album, check it out…
Check out the sound!

I’m not a fan of this album cover, but what I like about it is that it’s a direct reflection of the sound of the music. Rough, dirty, and raw. The typography is not that interesting either…who knows, maybe that was the intention?
