Al McKay All Stars / Al dente

★  Al dente/Al McKay All Stars (2001)




Will not there be many people who give the name of this person when you say a guitarist of Earth,Wind & Fire?

This is the mighty album including his original and famous tunes of EWF!

The music of EWF increases new rhythm and becomes the fresh finish, and the music that the original is so good to listen to.
A vocal of Ali Woodson is attractive, too.

Rhamlee Micheal Davis joined in 2 songs.


Probably it is "LA.ALL STARS. to have become the forerunner of this band .

... That I think that it is constituted AL MaKAY as leader with members , VERDINE WHITE,FRED WHITE, RALPH JOHNSON,ANDREW WOLFORK,PHNIX HORNS.

I think that this band have wanted to release the CD!

Undercover Brother

Undercover Brother(2002)



The sound track of the action movie starring Eddie Griffin.
I can't do comment on this movie because in itself I do not appreciate it.
However, this sound track is so funky. And amazing!

It contains a new song "What Happened To Brotherhood "of Earth,Wind & Fire 
You can't listen to this music with no other albums.
The song is full pf feeling harking back to 70's .
It's SO COOL!

As for the other songs, songs are luxurious,too.
You won't get tired from a beginning to the last music!
From a good old masterpiece to a new songs of Snoop Dogg or Stanley Clarke.

Interpretations

Interpretations (2006)




Cooking resembles music.
Both are very creative, very interesting how the expression the author shows.
The taste is delicately different even the cooking was made with the standard recipt.

Many creater gives many idea to the dishes.
A device and an effort of the arrangement makes a variation of innumerable cooking.

When you express this in music; a cook is a leader or a band becoming the nucleus of the performance.
Material such as a pumpkin or cheese are members and musical instruments.
Score is a recipe.
And an ear will take the duty on the tongue in the music.

Tribute album "Interpritations" to Earth,Wind&Fire was released.

10. FantasyMe'Shell Ndegeocello



I expected that there was participation music of Maurice White but there was no
number featering him.

It is happy to listen to the famous music of EWF with the voice of other artists.
But I have a feeling that there may have been a chef finishing the music by original spice and recipe.


September of Kirk Franklin and
Fantasy of Meshell Ndegeocello are very unique.

Mixed well and happily to another music of EWF!
However, the other music seems to have been bound too much by original music.
I wanted them to tell by various recipes.
Even if I say so, I always listen to this album.

Barbara Weathers

★  Barbara Weathers / Barbara Weathers(1990)



 She had been in Atlantic Starr.
The lead vocal of famous tune "Always"is her!
Cause"My Only Love" is a product of Maurice White ,Bill Meyers, Seldon Reynolds,
It's SO exciting for me.

"Anywhere" was written by Maurice and Dianne Quander!

Furthermore, when I add it, two pieces were plesented by Wayne Lewis of Atlantic Starr !
You 'd better lissten to this!

Love,Niecy Style

Love,Niecy Style /Deniece Williams (2007)





The latest album after a long absence of Denny Williams.
After all her voice is young and charms a heart.
This album is covered.

Refineded song s of famous tune once in now. With Denice's voice/

Philip Bailey participates by a chorus in the second piece "Love's Holiday"!
The high-pitched tone of Philip will be indispensable for this song.
But I wanted the part-time job that more his voices were still outstanding!

Lacking something is left for fans by all means.
There album is really luxurious one with Philip Bailey , Stevie Wonder, Georege Duke,
 Everette Harp !
