For fans of the great Earth, Wind & Fire, it may be EXACTLY the right time to let you in on the fact that this band has produced a Holiday album, their first. The double bonus here is that, hey, it’s a new Earth, Wind & Fire album.
On October 21, Earth, Wind & Fire will release Holiday, a richly filled album of traditionals, seasonal standards, and two originals that include “Happy Seasons” (said to be inspired by “Happy Feelin'”), and “December” (inspired by the band’s “September”). Both of those tunes alone should be well worth the price of admission. The “December” track features vocals by Maurice White, who, while kept from touring due to Parkinson’s Disease, is still a member of the band.
