Earth Wind and Fire
LIST OF ALBUM REVIEWS: Earth Wind and Fire (1971)
Seriously, if you have Earth and you blow it away with the wind, there's nothing left to burn. Brief album summaries:
Earth Wind and Fire (1971)A regular funk album? I think not! It's pretty interesting artistically with some (naturally) groovy rhythms and good melody. Overall Album Score: 9.0 out of 10 Average Song Score: 8.9

The Need of Love (1972)Instead of going down on more of a pure funk route, they explore jazz fusion a bit more ... Well, they're going to be disco stars *one* day. Overall Album Score: 8.7 out of 10 Average Song Score: 8.7

Last Days and Time (1972)They drop all that artistic stuff and make a stab toward commercial glory. The schmaltz is layed on a bit thick, but boy can they play! Overall Album Score: 8.6 out of 10 Average Song Score: 8.9

Head to the Sky (1973)This is easily their worst album of their early period. They're scaling back their art and being merely respectable. Overall Album Score: 8.0 out of 10 Average Song Score: 8.1

Open Our Eyes (1974)I love listening to this music ... They have quite a few interesting tunes on this one, but the freshness seems to take a bit of a dive. Overall Album Score: 8.7 out of 10 Average Song Score: 8.6

That's the Way of the World (1975)And now, it's Earth Wind & Fire in all their slick, funk-pop glory. It's really a lot of fun. Overall Album Score: 9.3 out of 10 Average Song Score: 9.3
