The shattered pieces of life will not discourage me.

Earth, Wind & Fire: 30 Great Songs
Earth, Wind and Fire is an R&B, Funk, Jazz, Rock band which was formed in Chicago in 1969 by Maurice White. In 1962 Maurice became a session drummer for Chess Records, a blues, early rock and roll, and jazz label. From 1966 to 1970 he recorded with Ramsey Lewis and played drums on nine of his studio albums. White left Ramsey Lewis to concentrate on Earth, Wind and Fire. In 1972 Philip Bailey joined EWF as a co-lead vocalist and percussionist. Bailey and Maurice White shared lead vocals until White's death in 2016. Bailey went on to achieve major success as a solo artist. His biggest hit (away from EWF) was "Easy Lover" a duet with Phil Collins in 1984.

Celebrating the Admins at Vocal + Assist
Hello Friends, Associates, and Fellow Creators, I am proud to be part of the Vocal Media platform. I love writing and creator content that people read and enjpoy.

Now a year and a half later (almost to the day) my reason for the group is to share the joy I receive from being a Vocal Media Creator.
