EW & F Warth,Wind & Fire Earth, Wind & Fire/IN,USA 2022

EARTH, WIND & FIRE has been making the world dance for over 50 years since their debut. Here is a live album that lets you experience their latest stage in full. This work is recorded during the “Noblesville performance on July 8, 2022”. It is a super-class audience recording. They are currently touring the US with SANTANA coupling, but just the other day, Carlos Santana was rushed to hospital with heat stroke during a live performance. Let’s check out the current tour schedule to organize such recent situations.・January 1st: New Orleans performance ・February 1st-9th: North America (4 performances ・February 20th: NBA All-Star appearance ・April 22nd-May 13th: North America #1 (9 performances) ・June 17th-July 8th: North America #2 (14 performances) ←★This work★ >>Now<< ・July 28th-August 27th: North America #3 (17 performances) ・September 13th-October 5th: North America #4 (11 performances) ・October 26th-November 9th: North America #5 (9 performances) This is the schedule for EARTH, WIND & FIRE that has been announced so far. Not all performances were couplings, and some performances were opening for SANTANA. In the midst of all this, Carlos Santana collapsed at the “Clarkston performance on July 5th” at the end of “North America #2”. At that point, there were two performances left for “North America #2”, and EARTH, WIND & FIRE held the concert alone. The Noblesville performance of this work was the final concert (by the way, Santana is still recovering and is scheduled to return to the tour on July 26th). This work, recorded at the scene where he unexpectedly became a headliner, is a superb audience recording… probably. No, it is definitely an audience recording because the person who recorded it has released it, but the sound that flows out makes you tilt your head and doubt your ears, asking “Where is this a customer record?” No matter how you listen to it, it’s a sound board… no, an official work. It’s not a live album, it’s as beautiful as a studio recording. Of course, the performance has a live dynamism, and there are applause between songs. There’s no doubt that everything is live, but only the sound quality is superb. Studio work class. Just as it is meaningless to talk about the “core” and “details” of a studio album, this work also rejects such commentary. Recently, the latest recordings of scenes that have restarted after overcoming the COVID-19 pandemic have arrived one after another. The quality of 2022 is simply amazing. However, even among them, the sound of this work is outstanding. Rather than saying “The new standard sound of 2022!”, it is the shock of suddenly listening to a future recording in a time machine. Moreover, I can’t believe that this is an audience recording through space… no matter how many times I listen to it. Such a futuristic sound depicts the gorgeous greatest hits. In order to let you experience the volume and concentration of the powerful number of songs, let’s organize the set here. Apocalypse (5 songs) Let Your Feelings Show (★) After the Love Has Gone Rock That! (★) Boogie Wonderland In the Stone Challenge to Darkness (3 songs) Shining Star Reasons (★) That’s the Way of the World Others (10 songs + α) Keep Your Head to the Sky Mighty Mighty (Celebrate) Devotion Sing a Song Getaway Serpentine Fire Fantasy Got to Get You Into My Life September Let’s Groove *Note: ★ marks album songs that were not released as singles. …And so on. Normally, the ★ mark is used to mark noteworthy songs, but this time it’s a little different. Of the 18 songs performed on this album, 15 songs without the ★ mark are single hits. Even though it was not released as a single, “Reasons” is a must-have song for live performances, so I think you can understand how it is the ultimate greatest hit. Even so, it’s a tremendous sound that repeats over and over again. I can’t believe such a sound can be recorded live, and even with a microphone. A masterpiece of a music album where long-standing masterpieces come rushing in with such unknown sounds. A new dimension of sound experience. A super-class audience recording of the “Noblesville performance on July 8, 2022”. The sound is so perfect that it’s almost like an official work. It’s also beautiful as if it were a studio recording. Of course, the performance has a lively dynamism, and there are applause between songs. There’s no doubt that everything is live, but only the sound quality is studio-quality. With such a different dimension of sound, you can enjoy the super greatest hits, with 15 of the 18 songs being hit singles.
