Album Notes and Credits

Notes & Personnel Info
Earth, Wind & Fire: Philip Bailey (vocals, background vocals); Keith Harris (keyboards, drums); Verdine White (bass instrument, kalimba); Maurice White (percussion).
Personnel: Will.i.am (programming).
With the Rolling Stones and Paul McCartney releasing fresh and vital albums in 2005, it comes as no surprise that Earth, Wind & Fire are still going strong as well. But rather than simply hearkening back to their classic formula, EWF update their sound to keep pace with contemporary R&B and hip-hop, opting for a sharp, polished production that fits right in on urban radio, while still staying true to the pan-global grooves and complex, technically advanced playing on which the group built its reputation.
A host of guest stars--nearly all of whom are from an up-and-coming generation of soul--appear here. Black Eyed Peas' Will. I. Am. co-writes and performs on the opener "Lovely People," while Outkast's Big Boi steps up to the mic on "This Is How I Feel." The sensual crooner Brian McKnight lends his pipes to the ballad "To You," and even Kenny G. puts in an appearance on a saxophone-based instrumental. Beneath all this is the classic EWF vibe, and the band's ability to effectively "modernize" themselves is admirable and worth a close listen.

Producer: Terry Lewis; Jimmy Jam; Raphael Saadiq
