Gentle sounds and modest gestures are foreign to the colourful Afro group, who in their live performances welded together catalogue # ancient Egyptian Pharaonic mysticism with urban street life. That this spirit, which is 34241 found in the LP title and blows all the way through it, was guaranteed not only by the exuberant wind section in the group’s early years. With regard to rhythm, too, the set contents 1 LP / standard sleeve, insert band rolls out almost everything to pave the floor with powerful disco patterns, not forgetting the elegant and finely controlled falsetto, which adds further pep. Out of all pricecode this came the highly cultivated and expressive vocals as in Imagine, carefully balanced SC01 ballads (Burnin’ Bush), as well as a powerful sound that is so good for dancing to, as in release date the memorable number Saturday Nite. An extremely wide range of musical genres was April 2017 brought together by Earth, Wind & Fire in a big-band sound that is »innovative yet pop- barcode ular, precise yet sensual, calculated yet galvanizing« (Rolling Stone Magazine). '!2G00BJ-hbfdac! Den weisen, selbstbewussten Satz, nach dem der Geist wehen darf, wo er will, inter- original recording 1976 at Wally Heider Studio 3, Burbank pretieren Earth & Wind & Fire mit bestechender Klarheit. Leise Töne und die beschei- Studios, Hollywood Sound Recorders and dene Geste sind einfach nicht das Ding der bunten Afro-Truppe, die in ihren Live-Acts Westlake Audio by George Massenburg altägyptische Pharaonen-Mystik und urbanes Straßenleben zusammenschweißen. Dass dieser Spirit, dem Plattentitel folgt und sogar heftig pustet, garantiert in Anfangs- original production jahren der Truppe nicht nur das aufgekratzte Bläserpersonal. Auch rhythmisch fährt Maurice White & Charles Stepney die Band so ziemlich alles auf, um mit druckvollen Disco-Patterns das Parkett zu pfla- ratings (max. 5 stars) stern, aber auch fein ausgesteuerten Hochgesang geschmackvoll zu pfeffern. Aus die- AMG: 4,5 Discogs: 3,9 RYM: 3,6 sen Grundstoffen entstehen hoch kultivierte und ausdrucksvolle Gesänge wie in Ima- gine, penibel austarierte Balladen (Burnin`Bush), ebenso wie tanzbarer Drucksound, der seinen erinnerungsschwangeren Titel Saturday Nite überzeugend einlöst. Das ex- trem weit gespannte musikalische Trapez im Zirkus von Earth, Wind & Fire auf die For- mel gebracht, umschreibt einen Big Band Sound, der »innovativ, aber populär, präzise und dennoch sinnlich, kalkuliert und trotzdem mitreißend ist« (Rolling-Stone-Maga- zin).
