Last Days and Time (1972)
Last Days and Time-1972
Columbia KC 31702 Produced by Joe Wissert Arranged & Written by EWF Al Schmitt-Engineer Recorded at Sunset Sound, Hollywood Recordist: Kent Nebergall Earth, Wind and Fire Maurice White-Drums, Vocals, Kalimba Philip Bailey-Percussion, Conga, Vocals Verdine White-Bass, Percussion, Vocals Ronnie Laws-Flute, Saxes Ronald Bautista-Guitar Jessica Cleaves-Vocals Larry Dunn- Keyboards Ralph Johnson-Percussion, Drums. Featuring: Oscar Brashear-Trumpet / Bobby Bryant-Trumpet Reggie Andrews-Guitar Martin Yarbrough Overall*** Armed with a new lineup ( most notably CO-lead vocalist; Philip Bailey) EW&F delivered with a better sound
altogether. The jazz foundation that EW&F had forged the first two albums filters through a little. Rock, folk, gospel,
doo-wop, light-fuzz and light-funk are also added to the mix and balanced out decently. "Last Days and Time" is
better produced than the first two EW&F albums, but not up to par with the group's finest productions.
