Ramsey Lewis With Philip Bailey
Return to the index of We Love Earth,Wind&Fire!| It was historical
live performance! Philip Bailey and Ramsey Lewis played together at Blue Note Tokyo. It was lucky that I could be at table of stage slippage although I arrived fairly just before curtain time. The big percussion set is illuminated by the blue light before my slant. Lights dimmed 10 minutes later , Ramsey Lewis and his band member appeared after the narration . Although I saw Ramsay Lewis's for the first time, it is more youthful than have imagined . He must be remarkable age, he is tall and his back is so tight. Performance started. There was no member before the percussion set. Is that place for Philip? I wished.  ① BRAZILLICA ② DEAR LORD、BLESSINGS ③ PRECIOUS LORD (GOSPEL MEDLEY) ④ .HERE'S TO LIFE Even if the scale which he pronounced was 2 mark note of the same C , Ramsey's sound hears different. These were so emotional and magnificent! After 4 numbers, Ramsey Lewis called a name of guest. Philip Bailey appeared. What a great view! Philip stood in front of the percussion set. straight position from me. The reason why Philip was in black suit and took his tie on, Ramsey Lewis was in suit. Nearness when he did Shout, to the extent his saliva shined in lighting. It was really fortunate experience feeling his singing voice and percussion very near. Philip Bailey sings a duet in voice, and Ramsey Lewis is singing a duet firmly with the finger. The smiling face of Ramsey which gazed at Philip while performing was like a gentle look to a child . ⑤ SERPENTINE FIRE ⑥ SHINING STAR ⑦ SEPTEMBER ⑧ ONCE I LOVED The music which I did not know was played shortly after the hit numbers of EWF . Fantastic tune with an urbane rhythm, a slow base, and a piano. ⑨ THE IN CROWD ⑩ ※ I don't know this song. As for this music, Philip participated only on the percussion! Members once left in vigorous applause! Isn't the show too short? I looked on my wrist watch , it was already 23. Actually,they did play over 1 hour. After few minutes, They were back to service for encore . ⑪ SUN GODDESS Wow! I really desired to feel this! Return to the index of We Love Earth,Wind&Fire! |

Philip Bailey Live @ Blue Note
With members of Earth,Wind & Fire!
I went to see his show at Blue Note.
Before show begins, I found the CD "Love is Real"released only by Mp3 download.
Of course, I bought it.
And picture of him with autograph.
After awhile,
The lighting in the hall falls down and other members arrangeed on a stage. .
I felt my adrenalin fully got pulled out with that sight.
I could recognize the menbers of EWF I really love.
Then,Philip Bailey appeared through the hall!
Almost EWF!

Philip passed along the left-hand side passage toward the stage,
I should have wished the seat in that direction .
The performed music was as follows .
I"ll Write A Song For You
Nature Boy
Tell Me A Bed Time Story
Fantasy
Kalimba Story
You In I
Love Is Real
Serpentine Fire
Chinese Wall
Let's Groove
September

Easy Lover
Since it started with the jazz taste at first,
I thought this was jazz show but he played many groovy songs in many ways.
Audience looked happier when he played EWF's tune,
But I rather want to listen his solo.
"Fantasy"was played with new arrange with surprise.
When they played "Serpentine Fire", we,audience sung the phrase of "Oh Yeah! all together.
Anyway I was so fulled with excitement and amusement!

EWF Japan Tour 2012
I have not seen fit to work, in my head , music of EWF were ringing loud.
It was the day that EWF concert was in kokusai Forum in Tokyo.I can never miss that kind of chance to enjoy the music!
Mail has arrived to the mobile from my friend Kim , great fan of EWF the day before yesterday.
To summarize the content, something like this.She could not join the concert of EWF,
but she say three people to exercise the rest of special privileges!
What a thing.
A wonderful gift was backstage pass of EWF!
Enter the hall.Boogie wonderland had played suddenly immediately after the Introduction!

To set the above list does not have much confidence.What is it about like this ·
"Somebody Screem!"
Favorite phrase of Pjilip Bailey/
After being shouted several times, plunged into long slow time period!
"Love"s Holiday"
B David Withworth took a vocal that I listend for the first time,
Originally Maurice White sung ,of course this song,But the time aroud 2000,Robret Brookins always perfomed this song,
Unfortunately he passed away, I loved Love's Holiday with his husky voice !
I remenber his voice at this time.
Show a slow time, such as "Devotion" "After The Love Has Gone" was quite long but a translation ·of our thought.
What band does one of the few in the world that can liven up the audience with a slow time like this?
This supreme hour.Not it end up even if there is a quiet live like this?
It was full of satisfaction and convinced me that if there were.EWF end this time strategy with the up-tempo songs
"September" and "Let's Groove" is the intensity of the reaction of venue · · ·
It was fresh in the Amazing live anyway!David will I move around I was so tireless as ever.
I Really Love Earth, Wind & Fire!
They've been great to service the increased vitality and sensitivity in a long time.

I nevrer thought that a miracle would not happen twice already, we did not even want.
We could get into back stage last time in the kindness of Kim !
It came true face of excitement, of goose bumps, a shock, excitement with EWF members,
I really thank Kim!
EWF back stage for the second time ,
EWF members already have been talking with guests .
The number of crazy fans like us mere cormorant and clearly less than two years ago and though.
Members of the band and that they have my favorite spots in the world around me!
In the room ,There were members of EWF · · ·
In addition to the guest but the number of people that is was not just like us,
clearly less than the previous.
First I talked to Mr. McKinley, and I got his autograph.
I couldn't talk with Mr. John Paris at the last time.
"Mr.Paris!""Oh, Do you know me?"
"Ofcourse!"
I did not expect that he was so friendly
I taked to B David Whitworth.
This time I showed the album "Have Fun" of 14 carat soul he was enrolled before!
I wanted him to write his name on that jaket!
His countenance was changed after a little talk with David!
David began to show that CD to other members of EWF !
I heard later from David, the other members did know " 14 karat Soul "but ,to witness the first time itself is with a CD ·Settled at the conversation back to under David,
