Earth, Wind & Fire: Shining Stars - The Official Story of Earth, Wind & Fire

Earth, Wind & Fire: Shining Stars - The Official Story of Earth, Wind & Fire ()
Member Rating:  
Earth, Wind and Fire was one of the most popular and most innovative R&B groups of the 1970s, who, under the direction of leader Maurice White, created a sound that was at once funky and polished, blending danceable groves with first-class musicianship and high-level stage craft. Shining Stars -- The Official Story of Earth, Wind & Fire is a documentary created with the participation of the group that features both concert footage and interviews with the members of the group as they recount the story of their early days, their rise to fame, the group's burnout through overwork, and personal differences in the early '80s, as well as their later return to the concert stage and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

    Not the best documentary I've ever seen but it was informative. Plus you get to see a lot of EWF performances.

    Unlike their famously lavish stage shows, this dvd lacks a bit in production value. But the content and their heart more than makes up for that simplicity, as Maurice White and many original group members tell the story of how this group went from the rough streets of Memphis to being the finest, first, and #1 funk / soul (black) arena concert artists in the rock / pop world. Lots of great live show footage is included, and behind the scenes development of their dynamic shows. But in the end it's about how their music made a difference and enriched our lives... on THOSE points, this dvd certainly succeeds!
