December 19, 1941 – February 4, 2016
My heart breaks! I’m so blessed to have grown up in the 70's. I just remember afros, beads, and good times! Simple times, the best times. Ever since Earth Wind & Fire began back in the 70s, I have loved their music. I had the honor of seeing Earth Wind & Fire in the 70s and the 80s. Each time I saw them they were fantastic! How many bands can claim, that not one of their songs is about anything negative? Always about love, happiness, celebration and being the best you can be. I heard someone say, Maurice wasn’t really a singer. I wanted to slap the mess out of them. I challenge them, go on YouTube and look for: Unreleased song by Maurice White/ EWF. The man not only could sing but had a beautiful voice. He and Philip Bailey were the lead singer of the group. He was also an amazing songwriter and the main songwriter. There will never be another like Maurice White. I had a lot of favorite songs back in the day but two of the most beautiful songs ever recorded in my opinion was “Reasons” and “Devotion”. Every time I here, “After the love has gone”, “Would You Mind”, “Can't Hide Love”, "That's The Way of The World", “September”, “Boogie Wonderland”, “Let's Groove”, “Fantasy”, "That's The Way of The World" and “Sing a Song” . I will remember Maurice White with a smile on my face. The World has lost an Icon a legend to Parkinson's disease, he passed away in his sleep. Thank You Lord for giving him to us for 74 years. Maurice White the founder of EWF, has inspired so many people around the world. With his amazing music and great message. He was indeed a Shining Star and we will all Keep our Heads to the Sky! Thank You for what you left us in your music that will live forever. R.I.P. you will be missed.
