 Earth,Wind & Fire Japanese Singles Collection (2020)  

The artist's single songs vary from country to country. 

 Earth, Wind & Fire is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. 

Collection set of single songs released in Japan has been released. 

2 CDs and 1DVD. 

Two thick booklets are included, one of which is a lineup of single jackets from Japan. 

The design of the early days makes us feel the times. 

Notably, the full version of Brazilian Rhyme was recorded on CD for the first time. 

And the promotion video of 4 songs were recorded on the DVD for the first time. First, "Brazilian Rhyme". 

I'm grateful for the longer playing time because it always makes me want to listen more. 

When I listen to EWF's hit songs with the passage of time after a long time ... 

Once again, I am amazed at the high degree of perfection. 

The arrangements and choruses are all meticulously assembled in every detail. 

Further DVD. "Wanna Be The Man" I watched this for the first time. 

* It's not a cool finish, but ... 

 It's been a while since I saw Maurice White's "I Need You" video and felt it. 

I didn't think when I first saw it ... 

There were multiple beautiful women in this video. 

However, when the lyrics are superimposed ... 

It seems that the main character is reaching out to multiple women ... 

Shouldn't it be better to narrow down the heroine to one person? 

 Anyway, I think it's a must-have collection for fans.

Glastonbury Festival

Glastonbury Festival (2016)

The Glastonbury Festival is a large-scale outdoor music festival that has been held in Pilton, England since 1970.

A live performance featuring Earth, Wind & Fire in 2016 is on sale on DVD.

The performance with a new arrangement added to the standard masterpiece is wonderful!

Other famous songs are inserted in the middle of the song ...

The vocals of B David Whitworth and Philip Bailey Jr. are featured in many of these works ...

You can feel the new wave of EWF.

In addition, Ralph Johnson's solo (Got To Get You In My Life), which I haven't heard much until now, is a great performance for fans.

It Is Love

It Is Love  / Sheldon Reynolds The Familey (2017)

 

Sheldon Reynolds was previously a vocalist and drummer for Earth, Wind & Fire. I really like his voice and I love his songs without exception! 

 I was really shocked when I learned that he had left EWF. 

 And also I feel sorry when I knew that he has the same Parkinson's disease as Maurice White. 

The release of this work while being deprived of physical freedom little by little. Unlike Maurice when he disappeared from the live, as long as he listens to the album, he is full of power and love. 

I sincerely hope that medicine will evolve and that the activities of this genius musician will not be taken away in the future. 

 While playing an active part on his own, he also really likes "Devoted Spirits", which he teamed up with Larry Dunn and Morris Plesure. 

Two of them also participated in the eighth song of this album, Interlude. 

EWF Horns also participated in EWF's masterpiece "Sing A Song"! 

The voice of his wife Marilyn Reynolds, who is featured this time, is also really wonderful! Touch Me placed at the end of the album seems to be listening to standard masterpieces. 

Everything is a masterpiece, just like an EWF album. 

This time, like Sheldon Reynolds The Familey, this is a superb album created with his family around him. 

It was released in advance in Japan ... 

It's a pity that it doesn't seem to be sold very widely. 

I'm looking forward to his next album.

One World

One World (1990) from album "Music Speaks Louder Than Words)

The whole world is under threat from the new COVID-19.

Now we are forced to take a distance.

But I want to keep our minds closer and fight as a whole world!

Earth, Wind & Fire's 1990 song ...

Don't you think that we can be empowered by listening ?

I quote the lyrics this time.

One World

(P P Oland, F Previte, S Manukion, M Targo)

Someone like you, someone like me

Dreaming a dream of what could be

Do we believe ? We'll maybe we do

It all comes down to me and you

No matter who we are …there's only

One world

One love to share

I've seen it in your eyes

I see it everywhere

We're not alone

We all share a home

In one world

We speak in different words

We live our separate lives

Yet every morning

We watch the same sun rise

Revernge

Revernge / Nathan East (2017)

Nathan East, a member of Four Play and known as a global bassist.
Here is his third solo album.

While performing with many artists ...
To be honest, this instruments are hard to become the main characters.

However, those two solos that have overcome such concerns are bestsellers.
※ I have not purchased, but ...

Well, this album.
Earth, Wind & Fire members participated in 2 songs.
The two songs are EWF's masterpieces "Love's Holiday" and "Serpentine Fire"

The song that inserts new syllables while keeping the original phrase is really nice.
Voice of Philip Bailey who participated in “Love's Holiday”.


Chorus is unique expression only this time, great satisfaction.

Also I felt happy with "Serpentine Fire".
Here, the vocals are featured from the beginning, so you can enjoy Philip Bailey's lead and back vocals.
Moreover, the chorus isn't the obligato of this song, which I'm used to listening to,
I got the impression like a new song, and recently started heavy rotation.

Lead vocalist is Philip Bailey.
Further ...
Verdin White on Bass
Ralph Johnson on Percussion

Also, Eric Clapton on guitar and Phil Collins on Drum.
Great collaboration!

I finally got it.
When I discovered it before, it was expensive and out of hand.
He participated in numerous albums of Earth, Wind & Fire.

It is a solo album of Blll Meyers who produced many famous songs by teaming with Maurice White.

All seven songs are instrumental.
The melodious and magnificent tune continues and is comfortable.

Jerry Hey participated in the horn selection.

I Feel The Light

I Feel The Light 　/　Little Glee Monster featuring Earth,Wind & Fire (2019)

 The long-awaited CD has been released! Little Glee Monster has grown into a leading Japanese girl vocal group .
Their new song features our Earth, Wind & Fire!
They were the undercards of the last time the EWF came to Japan and performed a concert at Budokan.

In that case, I do not know their existence ...
Surprise to sing the famous song "Septenmber" together ...
 In this performance, I shot this video ...
 
 * Movie shooting was OK, so it was not taken illegally.
 Comments on my YouTube channel are only for Little Glee Monster fan ...

It's an incredibly popular group! New songs featuring EWF.
Many EWF members have collaborated with Japanese artists,
Maurice White with Sakurako Mitsui, kaito, Noriko Sakai,
Philip Bailey with Anri, J-frends
Ralph Jonson with Hiromi Iwasaki,

However, there were few examples in the past that feature and release with the entire EWF group.
 Unfortunately, it seems that it is only released in Japan with a CD and DVD set. But you can get this here!
  【Amazon.co.jp限定】I Feel The Light (通常盤) (オリジナル缶バッジ付)

The groove is EWF! It's really cool!
There's a Philip Bailey solo, and their melody line is overlaid by Philip's chorus. 

How many EWF members are participating?
There was a notation on the jacket.

 Lyrics / Philip Bailey
Produced by Philip Bailey
Vocal Direction / Valerie Bailey
Horn Arrengement/ Ray Brown
Gutiars / Masa Kohama
Bass / Verdine White
Drums / John Paris
Trumpets / Rashwn Ross, Will Artope,
Alto Tenor Sax / Gary Bias
Trombone / Reggie Young

 I was able to confirm John Paris's participation in the video, but ...
My favorite Gary Bias and Reggie Young were also ...
It should be a funky and lucky sound like EWF!
 This product also comes with a DVD.
PV, which Little Glee Monster co-starred with Earth, Wind & Fire,
 They also comment on how they participated in this miracle project.

The CD coupling song is a Christmas song that seems to be a huge hit even for singles.
 It's a rich one!
