That's The Way Of The World is nothing short of a soulful masterpiece.
Pressed on heavyweight 180-gram vinyl and housed in a sleek gatefold jacket, this limited edition brings new life to one of the most iconic albums of the '70s. Slide out the included insert and you’ll be holding a piece of R&B history.
Originally released in 1975, this sixth studio album didn't just top the Billboard 200 and Top Soul Albums charts—it redefined what funk, soul, and pop could sound like together. From the uplifting anthem Shining Star to the smooth, heart-tugging ballad Reasons, every track is a journey through groove-laden brilliance. The title track That's the Way of the World remains a timeless ode to love, resilience, and harmony.
Beyond its musical influence, the album also doubled as the soundtrack to the film of the same name, further cementing its cultural legacy. Earth, Wind & Fire even snagged a Rock Music Award for Best Rhythm and Blues Album—because of course they did.
Whether you’re rediscovering this classic or spinning it for the first time, this vinyl edition is the definitive way to experience Earth, Wind & Fire’s signature blend of lush harmonies, funky basslines, and spiritual uplift. File under: essential.
