'Last Days In Time' finds Earth,Wind & Fire at a certain peak of sorts.This is the bands debut album for Columbia and also the debut of singer Phillip Bailey in their band.Not only is his voice in peak form but EWF have obviously not quite let go of the ensemble-style jazzy funk they'd patented from their debut on Warner Brothers two years earlier (which is even rawer then THIS).That sound is most evident on the communal funk jams of "Time Is On Your Side",the wonderful "Remember The Children" and the brilliant instrumental workout "Power".And even while Bailey sings a couple pop covers in "Make It With You" and "Where Have All The Flowers Gone" Earth,Wind & Fire didn't get any hits from this album.Their sound was still far too eclectic and drew upon too many world and jazz music elements to really get over on the pop charts.So for a glimpse into EWF's pre-superstar days WITH Phillip Bailey this album is a good place to go.You certainly won't find anything from it on Columbia's 1978 greatest hits album 'The Best Of Earth,Wind & Fire' and even on more extensive compilations these songs are often skimmed over.So for any EWF fan I'd say this album is pretty essential.
Veronica is due in 9 days, Jae and Jae are doing fine although Lil Jae tend to dominate Big Jae...SMH/LOL
Mama is fine, daddy now has diabeties to go alone with Prostate Cancer, but is fine at the moment...The little ones in your family sure are growing up...SMILE
Quincy Jones is thoroughly entwined in the musical background of my young adulthood. A genius of unique quality. I have been posting blogs and music throughout the years and decided to embark on the arduous but satisfying task of gathering some of it to remember the excellent legacy that he left.
