They are among the best-selling bands of all time, with sales of over 90 million records worldwide. The band was formed in Chicago by Maurice White in 1969, growing out of the Salty Peppers. Prominent members have included Verdine White, Philip Bailey, Ralph Johnson, Larry Dunn, Al McKay, Roland Bautista, Robert Brookins, Sonny Emory, Fred Ravel, Ronnie Laws, Sheldon Reynolds, and Andrew Woolfolk. The band is known for its kalimba sound, dynamic horn section, energetic and elaborate stage shows, and the contrast between Bailey's falsetto and Maurice's baritone. The band has won six Grammys out of 17 nominations and four American Music Awards out of 12 nominations. They have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Vocal Group Hall of Fame, the NAACP Image Award Hall of Fame, and Hollywood's Rockwalk and earned a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Rolling Stone has called them "innovative, precise yet sensual, calculated yet galvanizing" and declared that the band "changed the sound of black pop". VH1 has described EWF as "one of the greatest bands".

"I AM" is the only record I own in vinyl, cassette, CD, and MP3s. It's just that awesome. Nothing but excellence.

Same,I have 3 Vinyl pressings (UK pressing,Japan Master Sound 76 pressing,Dutch 180g pressing) and 1 CD version with bonus unreleased tracks.
One of their best albums.
Corey Bright
This and All n All are the only 2 cds I still have left. Plan on framing them one day.
Martin Rockport
That the horn section is so outrageous, you almost forget the equally astounding string section. I grew up listening to EW&F and 'Rock That' was then - and still is now - simply a mind blowing arrangement from an amazing album.
Travis McLaurin
They were Killing it! The Phenix Horns!
Christopher Mobley
In 1979 I was a member of Purdue's marching band and we played Tennessee in the Bluebonnet Bowl in Houston. Tennessee's marching band played this with a perfect marching routine. Our mouths dropped open. My girlfriend said "You played this for me in your dorm room.". Truly outstanding.
Wyn Mills
Is there no limit to this band's genius?? Groovemasters!
Tommaso Magnani
Hoo.d boy!
