Earth, Wind & Fire

As diverse and elemental as their title, Earth, Wind & Fire combined so many musical stylings it would be foolish and impossible to limit them to a single musical genre. Artfully crafted components of funk, jazz, soul, R&B, African music, blues, disco and pyschedelia can be found in their archives, and hits like "Got to Get You Into My Life" and "September" made the band one of the most popular funk outlets of the 1970s. To appreciate their vast realm of flavorful melodies, one should properly serve up Earth, Wind & Fire's albums and songs year by year. Or, you could simply pop a 'greatest hits' album into the old stereo and relax with the ultimate soul food that is Earth, Wind & Fire.
