Free Music Notes for Earth Wind & Fire: Greatest Hits
Free Music Review: got to get them into my life
Hit: 5 Stars
Earth Wind & Fire: Greatest Hits has many hits that I remember from when I was a kid in school; it brings back a lot of memories for me. This is a strong single CD compilation although as others have noted it doesn't give you every last one of their hits. However, what we do get is very high quality control music from Earth Wind & Fire; and that's great. The quality of the sound is excellent and I like that artwork, too.
"Shining Star" rocks! This came out and hit the airwaves big time! Earth Wind & Fire simply never sounded better. They really handle this well; they never skip a beat nor do they ever let go of a superfluous note. The tempo and key changes make the number strong; and they sing this very well. "That's The Way Of The World" quickly shifts gears for a much more mellow sounding tune; this features the group squarely in the spotlight--right where they belonged and still belong! "That's The Way Of The World" was always one of my very favorite Earth Wind & Fire tunes; and I think just one listen will tell you why--this is all THAT good.
"September" has an awesome beat that would even get the dead tapping their feet to the rhythm; "September" was yet another huge hit that got a lot of airplay when it was originally released. I still hear it sometimes on an "oldies" radio station in my area; and that's grand. "Got To Get You Into My Life" is one heck of a snazzy tune; they make this a masterpiece and they deliver this with a lot of feeling. In addition, "Sing A Song" has them harmonizing to perfection--and beyond! "Sing A Song" is another major hit on this CD.
"Serpentine Fire" uses the percussion to great advantage; and of course another big hit for this group is "Fantasy." "Fantasy" charms me with its beauty and it's truly a stand-out on this album--how could they ever get better than this? I'm amazed. "Mighty Mighty" has quite a beat that gets you up and dancing nearly wherever you are; and listen for "Reasons." "Reasons" has a mellow, pensive flavor to it that is absolutely stunning--and the backup singers harmonize well.
"Let's Groove" is another tune that still sounds good all these years later; and I really like "Boogie Wonderland" which Earth Wind & Fire performs with The Emotions. "Boogie Wonderland" was a huge success for these artists and I still love to hear it today. "After The Love Has Gone" again showcases Earth Wind & Fire at their mellow best; and the album ends strong with Earth Wind & Fire performing "Getaway." "Getaway" has a strong beat that makes me want to dance; and it also leaves me wanting so much more!
This is a great album for fans of Earth Wind & Fire, but if truth be told they would need other CDs to have all of the hits from this fantastic group. This album is particularly good for the casual fan who wants most of their hits on one single CD; and it makes an excellent starter CD for people just discovering the fine talents of Earth Wind & Fire.
Earth Wind & Fire: Greatest Hits Poster
CDSIt's the most complete single-disc collection of EWF chart rockers, and Greatest Hits' splendid remastering makes one of the major exponents of '70s funk positivity sound sparkling. From the driving "Shining Star" to the syncopated mastery of "September" and "Boogie Wonderland" to the slow-jam heaven of "After the Love Is Gone," this is a reminder of what made the group so special. --Rickey Wright
