Sensational!

If you truly are an EWF fan, this CD is for you! All the excellent ballad songs. Philip Bailey has never sounded better. Truly a sensational CD. I loved it so much I bought it for all my EWF fans! Don't delay -- get this now. December 12, 2007

Some of EWF's best!!

This CD features many of EWF's best songs...from songs that inspire ("Keep Your Head to the Sky," "Devotion") to songs that seduce ("Love's Holiday," "Can't Hide Love"). No, this is not a complete discology of the group, and it's not meant to be. These are their best ballards, which are a testament of the amazing songwriting/producing talents of Maurice White.

Half of the Story

One of the best things about Earth, Wind & Fire was their diversity. Sure, they could lay down a beautiful ballad, but they also created some of the hottest horn-based dance tracks known to man. "Beautiful Ballads" opts to tell only half of this story. Apparently, this is Sony/Legacy's short-sighted, transparent stab at recycling classic material from their vaults in time for Valentine's Day (other artists in this series include the Isley Brotheers, the O'Jays and Gladys Knight). It isn't a bad idea per se, especially if you flinched at the raw energy of "Serpentine Fire," or recoiled at the intensity of "Getaway." If you need a soundtrack that will help you to `get lucky,' then this may do the trick; "All About Love," "Fantasy" and "Be Ever Wonderful" are lovely sentiments graced with lush musical arrangements. If that's what you're aiming for, then good luck - I only hope that she doesn't get too excited and ask to hear "September" or "Shining Star." B Tom Ryan February 11, 2007
