ABOUT THE ARTIST
Spirit is the seventh studio album by Earth, Wind & Fire, released in 1976 by Columbia Records. The album rose to #2 on both the Billboard 200 and Top Soul Albums charts, but also booked success with two featured tracks. “Getaway” reached #1 on the Billboard Hot Soul Songs chart and #12 on the Billboard Hot 100. “Saturday Nite”, peaked at #4 on the Billboard Hot Soul Songs chart and #21 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Spirit received critical acclaim. The New York Times wrote; “What is most interesting about Maurice White and his musicians, is their refusal to be locked into any stylistic format. Mr. White’s record will be labelled ‘disco’ in some quarters, and indeed parts of it would not sound out of place in a disco. But, generally, Earth, Wind and Fire is closer to jazz, or to jazz-rock, than to the thumping formulas of disco. And yet the group isn’t afraid to slip in a ballad, either.” Isaac Hayes called Spirit one of Earth, Wind & Fire’s five essential recordings. Spirit was also nominated for an American Music Award for Favourite Soul/R&B Album. The featured track “Earth, Wind and Fire” was also nominated for a Grammy Award in the category Best Instrumental Composition. Spirit is available on black vinyl and includes an insert.
