They may be largely forgotten by kids of today but EWF was DOPE.  That bassist (Maurice's brother Verdine) is great too.
Basses: Gibson lpb-1, Gibson dc jr tribute, Greco thunderbird, Danelectro dc, Ibanez blazer.  Amps: genz benz shuttle 6.0, EA CXL110, EA CXL112, Spark 40.  Guitars: Danelectro 59XT, rebuilt cheap LP copy

Ol' Grim Reaper bin reapin' him some folks big tahm... rip...
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

I caught EWF one time in Detroit many years ago, and I have to say they were, without a doubt, one of the tightest and most polished acts I have ever seen. Their vocals, dynamics and overall precision were absolutely amazing. RIP Maurice.

Great arrangements and I always liked his voice (and the way it gelled with the other guy's falsetto). Sort of the black Chicago. 20 years of Parkinson is a long battle.
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

Their recordings were so wonderful.  Made me feel good all over.
