The 3rd album after they transferred the registration to CBS .
All members lchanged except Maurice White and Verdine White.
It was the original member construction of present Earth,Wind&Fire.
The rhythm they made in this album tends to be fond compared with the previous 2 albums, and more audience would be able to accept.
They tried to tell the message with the easy and attractive tune to remember .
EWF covered "Where Have All the Flowers Gone" of Pete Seeger work .
It might be because they found something near of their message in that song.
Whatever I said, a twin vocal of Maurice White and Philip Bailey could be heard from this album.
You may probably say that a probability did essence of EWF by this album.
Ronnie Laws in Sax was participation only of this album.
Unfortunately his EWF enrollment period was very short.
Now, recorded songs.
4 vocalists were replaced/ Maurice White, Philip Bailey, Jessica Cleaves, Verdine White , and the form which takes the lead is luxurious.
EWF in 2000 's is made bearing a close resemblance.
Verdine White did sing these days entirely more than now.
Very nice voice similar to Maurice!
High note of Philip Bailey becomes clear for "Make It With You".
The voice of young Philip Bailey is beautiful like an angel.
Magnificent instrumental tune Power" was over 8 minutes.
Because it's often played in live even now, the fan should be matched with an ear.
9th numbers of "I'd Rather Have You
It sounds like the standard number of the Christmas!
(Though I introduced the same way the song in former album)
The gentle number that heat our hearts slightly.
