About Earth, Wind & Fire
Earth, Wind & Fire developed a sound that brings funk, soul and jazz into richly arranged popular songs. Maurice White's musical direction emphasized vocal harmonies, prominent horns and rhythms that could support both intricate arrangements and immediate melodies. That's the Way of the World, Spirit and All 'N All trace that approach through the 1970s. Songs including Shining Star and September connect positive lyrical themes with danceable grooves. Elaborate stage costumes and spiritual or Egyptian imagery added a visual dimension to the group's performances.
