Raise! finds Earth, Wind & Fire at their most polished and dance-ready, and this expanded CD edition pairs the 1981 album with bonus tracks.
By the early 1980s, Maurice White's band had already conquered the funk and soul world, and Raise! showed them adapting smoothly to a new decade. Crisp production, gleaming synths and tight rhythm work carried the group into the post-disco era without losing their signature horns, their gorgeous vocal blend or their spiritual sense of uplift.
The record is best known for "Let's Groove", a vocoder-kissed floor-filler that remains one of the band's most beloved songs and a fixture at parties and weddings to this day. "Lady Sun" and "Wanna Be With You" keep the mood warm and silky, showing how easily the group could shift from celebration to romance without breaking stride.
"Kalimba Tree" nods to the African thumb piano that White made part of the band's identity, and "The Changing Times" closes the original album with the horn section still cutting through. The bonus tracks extend the listen for fans who want to spend more time in this chapter of the band's story.
For collectors of classic funk and soul, Raise! is a sparkling snapshot of a band still at the top of its game, sharp, joyful and impossible to sit still through.
