I had the honor to see them in 1978. I can honestly say that concert was the best concert I have ever seen. It's was totally perfect in every way. It was pure "Magic".
The Best! Their live performances were as tight musically as their recordings, and the sheer showmanship in their live performances just could NOT be beaten!
I saw them several times in the late 70's when I was a music performance major in college. EWF ruled the stage completely! The musicianship is right on! They are my favorite band of all time.
Rest In Peace….Andrew Woolfolk…and all of the others of …EWF…Gone to soon Thank you for all of your Awesome Songs that now relate to the world today…2023 Incredible Artists…thier music will be heard in all ages of life

From a Long Time #1 Fan!! Kudos to the Best Band EVER!!!💕💕 It will NEVER be another Earth, Wind & Fire!! Cannot wait to see them Live in concert on July 5th!! R.I.P. Maurice White!!💕
Maurice White, what can I say. He would've been one of greatest solo artist, OF ALL TIME, had he gone solo. His loyalty to the greatest band ever assembled is the definition of loyalty.
It's a powerful thing that Maurice described Phillip as his brother. So you see for a King of men like Maurice getting out his powerful messages to uplift those those in need of spiritual and educational upliftment was more important than individual success.
EWF was the greatest "feel good" bands of my youth. Whatever mood you were in...listen to EWF and all was ok with the world. EWF was one of the GOAT bands!!! There will be no other. Drop the mic guys!!
I had the privilege of spending time with Mr. "MO" White at The Sony Music Studio in Santa Monica CA. back in the early 90's assisting Mr. White on behalf of Sony/Columbia Records. Mr. "MO" White assisted I call him "MO" handed Me The DAT Tape of The Greatest Cobollation Album in 1992 to Secure It then give it to the Currier when he arrived and was cleared by the security. I'm a child of the '60s and the '70s now I've been playing Guitar for over forty plus years and I have MO White and Every Member of EWF since the 1970s to Thank for it.
Another RU-vid Account I actually see a couple of others in this comment section referring to Maurice White as “Mo.” I really wouldn’t know one way or the other though. What I do know is that I LOVE ME SOME Earth, Wind and Fire!!!❤️❤️❤️🙏🏿
I visited here again as Andrew Woolfolk passed away on 24 April 2022, RIP and hope you and Maurice White as well as Roland Bautista are playing in Heaven.
HAD A CHANCE TO MEET THIS GROUP WHEN I FIRST STARTED IN RADIO THIS IS THE GREATEST CONCERT FULL OF ENERGY AND POWER FROM THE 80S TIL NOW THEY ARE THE BEST RIP MAURICE THE LEGACY LIVES ON........
Maurice White a musical genius. 🎼 R.I.P MAURICE.... YOUR A SHINING STAR 🌟 SHINING BRIGHT TO BE WHAT YOU WILL TRUELY BE . GOD BLESS ALL OF EWF..... YOUR LIKE NO OTHER.
Pat! Phillip Bailey CANNOT SCAT SING! If it wasn't so pathetic it would be a big Laugh! Sometimes l do laugh but l Always fast forward to escape the Agonizing bwep bwep coughing that Bailey does! Bwah bwah bwah bwah 👎 👎 nonsense Bailey calls scat Singing is a disgrace to the real Scat singers lime Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald!
The best concert also this is the one concert where I discovered the talented Vance TAYLOR on Keyboard what a talent Maurice had a eye for top notched talent and Vance TAYLOR is one of them .
I really don't label EWF, even though their music is firmly rooted in the Afro-Cuban tradition: they do it all so moving and spectacular. See them before we lose "the voice," Phillip Bailey. It took me 5 years to convince friends to come to a show. Now we bring 5 or 6 and show the youngsters how to bump it right!
I'm in my early 20's, and I forced my friends to an EWF show a few weeks ago. Some guys were missing (RIP), and they don't groove like they used to, but it was still killer. One of my friends never even bumped EWF but he sure does now
You should RU-vid a group call Leonid and Friends very very good they cover EW&F and Chicago band- awesome and I got to see them in New Orleans just a few days ago 4/30/23 - all I can tell you they are awesome ❤
Love EWF Seen them twice in concert 1st time 1980 in Seattle and in Tacoma Wa. 2018 if it were not for covid-19 would have seen them again with Santana this year big love R.I.P. BIG BRO M.W. GOD BLESS ❤❤❤❤🥰🥰😊🇵🇷
Joe Jones Don Myrick his original horn soloist in most of their recordings for the Phoenix horns their original horn section also died in 1992 murderred by the LAPD for mistaken Identity. Most of not all the Phoenix horns also passed away from the original band.
I have so many favorites 😍 since I was a teenager. Their music is deeply spiritual and uplifting words of love ❤ I hope yo see you again soon since I see that you are touring this year. Blessings to you
Maurice White.ya se encuentra viajando en ese Hermoso por demás .Mundo de ensueño dónde nos transportó con su Linda música .a un paso de ver a Dios.Maurice Gracias infinitas ...
Ewf was a sum of its parts . By 1988 the Phoenix Horns were gone as Al McKay , Johnny Graham , Larry Dunn and others . Even the brilliant Maurice White couldn’t lead them into the top tier ever again . They peaked in 1982 .
I have so many beautiful memories of this great time, they are a part of my history, a fabulous group of great musicians that make us feel alive, thanks EWF for all you gave to me, you are the best band ever, I love you, R.I.P. Maurice...
RIP Reece - you crossed and infuced soo many genre's into the Earth Wind & Fire sound that it will never be replicated! That there is how ;legends are born! EWF4EVA
I look at earth wind and fire,,,because of their crossing of oaths of literally every music genre,,,but their ultimate influence are the lyrics,,,and undertones,,,the message being sent to u,, becareful,,,dissect it,, reevaluate my friends,,,for reality is and can be misinterpreted,,,,words,,,we as humans are interested only in human desire,,,what feels good ACROSS the median of emotions,, we are creatures of habit,,,want and need,,,am I to late in telling one this?,,to get grounded,, takes. Time,,,this is just a median to vent,,,per chance one may stumble across this tidbit,,,tell them,,,the signs of the end are here,,,for real and look at their faces,,,seven cans short of a six pack,,,
This was the time when they had almost transitioned into the new age of rap and hard industrial beats. It wasn't easy for them after 1981 since there was friction among members. The Pheonix horns had left, the new horn section was adjusting to the vision of Maurice, and they had also lost Ronald Batista to police shooting. Several core members had also left which really put them in a state of creative and identity crisis for at least 5 years but they came stronger than ever, especially on the next tour, i.e. System of Survival in 1990. And by 1993 they had become seasoned musicians who had found a way to cope up with the fast changing trends and still be authentic to the elemental and ancient mystical ideology they came from. But I feel the changing times somewhere diluted EWFs spirit for a couple of decades. Especially on the records they were releasing. But with the album Now, Then, & Forever, they returned to their core and showed the world what EWF truly was. I love this band the most. Their music and each member's inspiring personality helped me through a really tough time during my college days. I would sing their songs note for note. And at one point in time, I was able to almost hit those high soprano falsetto notes that Phillip has masterfully sung all those years. May the elements keep nourishing our minds and hearts for another hundred years.
