On the way you just have no doubt. The band's founders Maurice White and the band's founder Maurice White have always been receptive to songwriting for the band, but he has always been receptive to songs from the outside. which led to some of EW-F's biggest hits, including After The Love Has Gone and Getaway. Escape was written by Peter Kor and Beloid Taylor. Kor wrote music for various movies and TELEVISION shows, and had songs recorded by Lee Ritenour and Lakeside. Taylor, who died in 2014, recorded as a solo artist and composed several other songs for Earth, Wind and Fire, including Spread Your Love and Lady Sun. This song corresponds to the spirit of the album, which found the band aspiring to transcendence. Like many Earth, Wind and Fire songs, Getaway is a powerful message wrapped in a funky groove. Lyrics can be interpreted as seeking salvation from the world, or as a call to look beyond your boundaries for your supreme self. For the songwriters, however, it had its own special meaning. Peter Kor told us: We were on our own spiritual path, and the concept occurred as we were basically broke living in a roach-infested apartment in WATTS! This will make you want 'Getaway.' Maurice White credits his co-producer Charles Stepney with the responsibility of assembling elements of jazz, funk and RCB in this song. Stepney was a key member of Earth, Wind and Fire until he died of a heart attack in May 1976, a few months before the release of Spirit. Stepney was working on this track when he died. During their tour in 1976-1979, the band staged a difficult performance around this song. You have to see it to get the full effect, but flickering visitors will appear on the stage as the giant pyramid has come down. Members of the front group said goodbye and entered the pyramid, which, when rising, was destroyed by the explosion, and at that moment the visitors took off their costumes to show the same members of the group who entered the pyramid. The group worked with magician Doug Henning to create the illusion. The song was written for a flutist named Bobby Humphrey, but the demo never found it. The song's co-writer Peter Kor told us, The engineer on our demo lived in the same house as Verdin and several other members of the band, played them a demo that we did, and they created their own arrangement of it. Humphrey says he never heard the song until it was released. In our interview with the band's bassist Verdine White, he said it was the hardest song of Earth, Wind and Fire to get right in the studio. Initially, we played the way as a writer, in a rock path, White said. Then we end up doing this Earth, Wind and Fire way.
