Power by Earth, Wind & Fire (1972)



Earth, Wind & Fire was more than just a disco band. Sure, they had a bunch of disco hits in the late 70's, but they started out as a progressive soul funk band. Their first few albums are total album-listening masterworks(Earth, Wind & Fire, Last Days and Time, Head to the Sky) . They really set a mood. You can usually pick those albums up on the cheap at your local independent record store.

Yesterday, one of the band's founders, percussionist and vocalist Maurice White died after a long battle with Parkinson's Disease. RIP. Check out this funky instrumental track off of Last Days and Time.
