Master at playing several instructments sadly departed this world which he touched so dearly with his talent and grace on Feb 3, 4 in his sleep. His music was inspirational. It was guaranteed to inspire anyone who would take 2 minutes to listen. It literally made you feel better about yourself and feel that tomorrow was going to be a better day. The one thing about Earth, Wind and Fire is that even with their status as one of the greatest and I mean the greatest bands of all time. They never came across as if the fans should be so lucky or worship them. They always gave an inspiring concert and an awesome performance. I have several favorite E,W,&F songs. This is just one of them "Keep Your Head To The Sky." I am posting this one because this represent what Maurice White would tell us all. List your favorite Earth, Wind , and Fire song.

The absolute best live show I've ever seen, was this group. R.I.P.

This is sad. a wonderful talent, gone to soon. R.I.P.

[FMA4ME]

Forgot my favorite song. Shinning Star comes to mind, I always air bass that song like its 1975, I like Mighty Mighty too

E,W&F totally transformed Pete Seeger's "Where Have All The Flowers Gone." But I really love them both.
