Hey, thank you Bob, for telling us about the Devoted Spirits album. It
looks incredibly good, and how could it not be with Larry Dunn, Ronnie Laws,
and Jonny Graham on it?! It is kind of interesting how there is the
official EW&F, and then there are groups that other original members have
that play EWF classics. Like Al McKay and the LA Allstars, and I think
Jonny Graham has a band like that too. And now there is Devoted Spirits.
I actually don't have the problem you have with EWF. Yes, they did get
cheesy, but not velveeta like Kool and the Gang and especially the
Commodores did. In my opinion, 1977's _All 'n All_ is their best album. I
don't hear an ounce of disco in Serpentine Fire...it's pure Funk.
P*ter Funk
