awesome. I was and still am a HUGE Earth Wind and Fire (EWF) growing up. As a young trumpet player, I loved their stuff. The horn section was known early as the EWF horns but later became known as the Phenix Horns and have backed up many other artists. One of my favorites has always been "In The Stone" - one of the best brass charts of all time. Now...
@JackRussellDawg , have you ever heard of the Russian/Ukranian tribute band "Leonid & Friends". They play the complete catalog of Chicago and EWF. They tour all over and have been in the US for the past couple years. Less fighting. More music. These guys are phenominal. You need to subscribe to their YT channel. Leonid is the bass player and studio wizard. )) This recording from 2022:
