Boogie wonderland is tied with “soft and wet” by prince as the greatest disco song ever.
Classic Album from the Elements

With the recent passing of Maurice White, the founding member and driving creative force behind Earth, Wind & Fire, over the past few days I've found myself revisiting their music, which provided the soundtrack to my youth. "I Am" is the first album I explored in full by EWF and remains to this day, one of my favorite albums by the "Elements". The first song to grab my attention from this collection was the David Foster penned "After the Love Is Gone" (which by the way, features lead vocals from Maurice White, NOT Phillip Bailey, as the iTunes editors notes incorrectly state), with its melancholy lyrics, beautiful melody and haunting horn section accents. I used to call the radio station daily the summer this song was released and request it hourly (in the days when radio DJs took requests). Eventually, my dad let me borrow his LP and I played that album to death. Of course, Boogie Wonderland was the other radio friendly standout for this album, but there are so many cuts on this album that are better. The album opener "In the Stone", is known to be a staple among high school and college marching bands and the majestic intro from the Phenix Horns is still synonymous with the group's legendary sound. In my humble opinion, there's not a bit of filler on this album at all. "Rock That!" is one of the most jammin' grooves ever played by the group, and reminds me at once of the genius this group had overall as a BAND. You and I is also one of my favorite ballads by the group, and ALMOST gives "After the Love" a run for it's money as the most romantic cut on the album.
"I Am" will always be one of my favorite albums, not just by EWF, but in general. It's getting quite a bit of airplay these days as I revisit the legacy of Maurice White.

Ordered the song, Wait by Earth Wind and Fire. Did not remember hearing it in the past. Really love this song. Definitely worth the money!
Tightest horns on the planet!

This tour de force of instrumental back-up is unsurpassed. Many sing the praises of Maurice and the guys, but listen to the guys on the second riser. Sublime!

EW&F are exceptional as they incorporate R&B, Rock, Jazz, well, you name it. I've been a fan since the 1970's and anytime I want to listen to great musicians and lyrics, I pull out all my EW&F albums and spend hours listening to the greatest group of musicians ever.
