While their name conveniently conjures slabs of fashionable late-'70s New Agey mysticism and eco-consciousness, EWF founder Maurice White couldn't have picked a more metaphorically perfect moniker for his mighty, genre-expanding soul ensemble. The 34 tracks on this double-disc anthology underscore White's downright utopian vision, which shrewdly stewed the emotionally compelling lead vocals and sweet harmonies of Motown with the earthy funk of Sly and the Family Stone and some slick contemporary jazz, then seasoned it with tasty dollops of Tower of Power horns and Maurice's (and brother Verdine's) curiosity in Afro-Cuban rhythms. Small wonder they became arena superstars. There is something to please nearly everyone in the EWF oeuvre: from upbeat, infectious groove-staples like "Shining Star," Mighty Mighty," and "September" through the transglobal "Kalimba Story" and "Ponta de Areia" to the gospelized "Open Your Eyes," their pop-savvy cover of Lennon-McCartney's "Got to Get You into My Life," and the dancefloor-ready collaboration with the Emotions, "Boogie Wonderland." Essential features new liner notes with commentary by Maurice White. --Jerry McCulley

You can never go wrong with classic soul and groove to melodies that are well done.
The Best EWF Compilation December 14, 2007
Scratchy (Park City, Utah)
Having grown up in Miami listening to Earth, Wind & Fire LPs, I've always thought EWF is one of the best groups of all time. Now in the CD age, I didn't want to re-purchase all the albums, so have been hunting for a compilation that is more than the singles. This is the one. Two CDs -- early, later. Both great. When you listen to this stuff you realize it could displace most of the R&B that is currently on the airwaves. Timeless and ultimately engaging. If you're an EWF fan, this is a great collection. If you don't know about EWF, get with it and get this pair of CDs.
