Release Infomation





Four years passed between 1983's embarrassing Electric

Universe and their reunion album, Touch the World. Before

the album's release, there was excitement as well as

skepticism among Earth, Wind & Fire fans. Was EWF still

capable of delivering a great album? And even if it was, how

well would the album do in an R&B market that was radically

different than that of the 1970s? As it turned out, a lot of

the old magic was still there, and Maurice White and Philip

Bailey proved that they could still be a powerful

combination. From "Evil Roy" (which describes an urban

youth's life of crime) to the major hit "System of

Survival," Touch the World proved that EWF was still quite

capable of excellence. Though White doesn't shy away from

technology, he uses it in an organic fashion and remains

faithful to the outfit's rich history. Despite "System of

Survival"'s success, the album wasn't the huge commercial

hit it deserved to be, but it wasn't a bomb either. — Alex

Henderson
