September - Earth Wind and Fire

Groups like Earth, Wind & Fire don't really exist anymore, I think. Looking at this sleeve, it's hard to imagine how these nine people resolved issues like wages, dinner and successful group photos. Look closely at this one: at least two of them have their eyes closed.

'September' (Yes, I had to put it up this month) was recorded during the sessions for the album 'I am', but released ahead of the album. It reached number 2 in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and number 3 in the UK singles chart.

My collection: 7" single no. 3209
Found: Record fair, Amsterdam, September 30, 2000
Cost: 1 guilder
Tracks: 'September' / 'Can't hide love'
