Earth, Wind \u0026amp; Fire considered their amazing mix of Latin, Gospel, Soul, Funk and dynamic horn section as being of existential importance. This was the album that would either make or break the band: either they would establish themselves or they would sink into oblivion like so many other rhythm and blues acts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe basic recipe – finely chiselled Latin beat, meaty bass grooves and sizzling funky improvisations, spiced with the sound of exotic instruments – works perfectly. Furthermore, crowned with a beautifully airy falsetto and relaxed harmonious singing, the band created a big-band sound that the magazine Rolling Stone described as »innovative yet popular, precise yet sensual, calculated yet galvanizing«. Almost two decades later, and with more than three million albums sold in the \u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eUSA\u003c\/span\u003e alone, the editorial team voted the LP into their list of the ‘500 Greatest Albums of All Time’. And about time too! At last today’s ravers and rappers also get the opportunity to experience the great rhythms to which their daddies danced.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e180 gram LP w\/ Standard Sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eRecording: 1975 at Caribou Ranch in Nederland, Colorado (\u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eUSA\u003c\/span\u003e), by Curt Wittig\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e Columbia PC 33280 -Artist-Earth, Wind \u0026amp; Fire\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal ID: JIT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Funk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 8\/28\/19\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandling Note: **Please allow an additional 5 business days for this item's shipment.**\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: LP Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Earth, Wind \u0026 Fire","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53427900645560,"sku":"8J3O6B-GWJ7-MO","price":38.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9222\/8280\/files\/earth-wind-fire-thats-the-way-of-the-world_m0tsC.jpg?v=1777674728","url":"https:\/\/musicrecordshop.com\/products\/earth-wind-fire-thats-the-way-of-the-world","provider":"Music Record Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
