MY LIFE WITH EARTH,WIND & FIRE

MY LIFE WITH EARTH,WIND & FIRE / Maurice White My Life with Earth, Wind & Fire
Reading in English · · ·
 It took me a month to finish reading,
as I have not made it a habit.

 At first it took a while to read,but after 100 page,
I follow the page I am excited about the episode with EWF members and well-known superstars I wanted to secure time to read quickly · · ·

I felt that way. The first black band that changed the history of music.
 Its history and energy gave you power I believe.

 When thinking that such a leader, Maurice does not exist in this world anymore・・・
I am very lonely though ...
 The music he left behind and the various influences are engraved numerous and deeply in history.

 Please read this book and get to know the origin of EWF.
And the message Maurice wanted to tell. Except some disco music, EWF's music is great message from outer space. That way I recognize it.

 A strong step-up message like the world coach, Anthony Robbins !
 They send us with music. One book I would like to read by those who are not EWF fans.

Earth,Wind & Fire Japan Tour 2017

Earth,Wind & Fire Japan tour 2017 started at Osaka Festival Hall, May 20th.

I was so excited seeing them again/

The Members of Earth,Wind & Fire!

Before the concert,

I visited the  hotel  they stayed at with the Japanese friend who had worked with them.

Waiting in the lobby about 20 minutes, the members came down.

My friends who first met with them for the first time were in a dreamlike state that seem to be stunned.

A friend's little daughter started crying poorly at that timing, 

but  David B Whitworth tryed to stop her crying with gentle smile and voice.

How kind  members of EWF are!

Although it is just a little time, I really enjoyed talking and talking with them!

So Happy Time for us !

I really thanks to them!

5 hours later at Osaka festival Hall.

Brrilliant performance started on the stage.

Although the set list was almost same as the shows in 2016.

Their sounds and vibrations that I felt in the same space met the time with the utmost happy mood.

At that time, Kim Johnson  participated , I felt it gorgeous to listen to their chorus with female member.

Philip Bailey lead the performance on  the center,.

and B David Whitworth also played a major role!

The camera was chasing only 3 of the original members,

Philip Bailey, Verdine White, Ralph Johnson.
There was dissatisfied point for me coz I really love all the members of EWF.

Cavalcade of hit songs!

Hundreds of times would have been listened , but these songs  never get us tired.

Also attractive arrangement was changing.

Interlude that connects the songs, solo play at the time of the member referral・・・

There were really cool!

For me,this DVD became in one important thing to watch on a regular basis in the future.

Electric Universe (Expanded Edition)

Electric Universe (Expanded Edition)  （2015） This album might be the posthumous work of Maurice White. Maurice intended this album  as an album which reaches the present young people instead of the mere past repackage. It was an experimental album that electric sound was taken in on a large scale, though with the phones of Andlew Wolfolk,. I really love this album! The tracks were added to this Expanded Edition , eight trucks to the original. Since the number of original was eight, this had double contents. Different Version of "Magnetic" which is the highlight music of an album were three kinds. The sound source of first public presentation were five . 12 and 13 were demo version of album inclusion music. I  was surprised with the chorus portion of the  "Were Living in Our Own Time" Low voices of chorus were added to the demo instead of high-pitched sound. Furthermore, the last three music was precious music first exhibited in this album. All 3 music were written by Maurice White. 1.  Magnetic  2.  Touch  3.  Moonwalk  4.  Could It Be Right  5.  Spirit Of A New World  6.  Sweet Sassy Lady  7.  We re Living In Our Own Time  8.  Electric Nation  9.  Magnetic (Extended Dance Remix)  10. Magnetic (Instrumental)  11. Magnetic (7 Inch Version)  12. Spirit of a New World (Demo Version) (Previously Unreleased)  13. El Solitario (Were Living in Our Own Time Demo Version) (Previously Unreleased)  14. Heres to Love (Instrumental) (Previously Unreleased)  15. Club Foot (Previously Unreleased)  16. Milky Way (Previously Unreleased)

Thank you, Maurice!

I did not want to believe this news

I was so shocked .


Maurice White died at home in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

He is for me, really big presence.


It feels like a hole in my heart had opened.

Maurice has  given a lot of things to us until now, and will continue to have an impact in the future.

Thank you so much , Maurice!

You are shinning star, forever!
