in this album !

I was looking for this album for long time!
A friend of mine in Spain told me the infomation about this album!
Among 8 songs of this album, we can listen to the lead vocal of Robert Brookins!
(1 song is by Michael Brookins) ...

His voice was not so husky comparing from now.


This album was produced by Verdine White!

And Executive Producer is Maurice White!

RB was destined to enter EWF?

REGGIE YOUNG OF THE EWF HORNS charge of the trumpet released his solo album!
10 songs in this album are Most of his work !

Sophisticated adult music indeed!

I feel really good to listen!

EWF members of the group's full of talent!
That's why they can keep on attractting us always,I think.

Myron Mckinley and Ray Brown participated in this album.

But unfortunately, I could't find the infomaton for purchase ///

I wonder why such kind of good music is not distributed in general way.

We Are Family

★ We Are Family / Pat Boone (2006)



The EWF members participated in Pat Boone's album!
This is special album that Pat sung classic dance music with original menber of the song!

This album starts with shout of James Brown in "Papa's Got A Brand New Bag" and
 it's so exciting!
Many other great artists were in this,too, such as Sunshine Band, Kool & The Gang, or Ray Paker Jr !

Pat Boone is really great singer because he has the perfect rhymes skills and has refreshing voice.
But my personal impression is that kind of voice is not sutuble for dance music like music below.

"That's The Way Of The World" they said in leaflet that Al Mckay and Johhny Graham partcipated.

And there is a picture named Johhny Graham and Pat.
But the person in this picture was Verdine White!

What a mistake!

I'm afraid that we can't listen to the voice of Philip Bailey or Maurice White!
Instead of them, Philip Ingram played the part of chorus.

But We can listen to soul classic music at once in this!


1. Papa's Got A Brand New Bag - Pat Boone & James Brown

2. Soul Man - Pat Boone & Sam Moore

3. Get Down Tonight - Pat Boone and KC & The Sunshine Band

4. Tears of a Clown - Pat Boone & Smokey Robinson

5. Celebration - Pat Boone & Kool and the Gang

6. I Can't Help Myself - Pat Boone & The Four Tops

7. A Woman Needs Love - Pat Boone & Ray Parker Jr

8. We Are Family - Pat Boone & Sister Sledge

9. Shotgun - Pat Boone & Gerald Albright

10. That's The Way of the World - Pat Boone & Earth Wind&Fire

from the heart

★ from the heart / Daryle Chinn (1996)




Philip Bailey participated in alubum of keyboard player,Daryle.
The participation tune is "Fantasy"!

His voice shines more than any musical instruments though his turn is not long
because the keyboard is a leading part.
The chorus in the latter half is different from the original and it is glad of
fan like me.

Most of other tunes is original of Daryl.
We can enjoy that there is diversity though it is united under the kind
of soft jazz music.

1. My Summer Love
2. From the Heart
3. We Came 2 Party
4. All My Love (Interlude)
5. All My Love
