Earth, Wind & Fire – “Boogie Wonderland”

Cover of "The Best of Earth, Wind & Fire, Vol. 1" album (1978)

American R&B band Earth, Wind & Fire from Chicago had quite a distinguished career in the Seventies, but the only (original) song from them that instantly comes to mind for me is “Boogie Wonderland”, from 1979.

I guess I just didn’t listen to their kind of music that often.

Nevertheless, the band was very successful, with six Grammy Awards and four American Music Awards.

They were inducted into both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Vocal Group Hall of Fame.

What I do remember is the very strong horn section, and you’ll notice it here in “Boogie Wonderland”:

Short and sweet today.
