In the Name of Love

In the Name of Love  / Earth,Wind & Fire (1997)



This album released as an international edition after"Avater" was released from Avex Trax in Japan.

Several songs of different song is filmed by each, and the song order is also different.

" When Love Goes Wrong" was featured only in this album!
The painful ballade that voice of Philip Bailey moves our hearts.

I thought there was a price of the purchase enough only by this 1 song.

These 2 are indispensable album for a fan, aren't they?
