RIP Fred White (1955 – 2023)

“Evil” (1973)

Fred White speelde drums by de Amerikaanse band Earth, Wind & Fire die u misschien kent van “Evil” (1973), “Brazilian Rhyme” (1977), “September” (1978) and “Let’s Groove” (1981).

“Brazilian Rhyme” (1977)

Nu ik erover nadenk, opvallend veel hoezen van EWF hadden esoterische thema’s.

“September” (1978)

Die esoterische neiging hoeft niet te verbazen als men nadenkt over de titel van de band: “earth, wind and fire’, ‘aarde, wind, en vuur’; alleen water ontbreekt om er de klassieke elementen van te maken.

“Let’s Groove” (1981)

Over hoezen gesproken, een aantal ervan werden geïllustreerd door de Japanse illustrator Shusei Nagaoka.
