Millennium

Millennium / Earth,Wind & Fire (1993)




This became near the original Earth,Wind & Fire sound differing from the album of the former work.
Still, there were also featured songs with elements of world music,jazz,blues.

This album recorded the eighth first rank place in the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums section.

New member's Freddie Ravel is greatly taken an active part.
We can enjoy the beautiful harmony of Philip Baiey and Maurice White in many songs here.

We can also experience the collaboration of Prince and EWF with "Super Hiro"!

All In the Name of Love

All In the Name of Love /Atlantic Starr (1990)



This is brilliant album of R&B band、Atlantic Starr!
I like this band !

Even if there was a person who don't know the name of Atlantic Starr, but there be hardly a person who has not listened their big hit song "Always"?

This album is that the famous tune is filmed.
All In the Name of Love
