Their masterful sixth LP, from 1975, produced and arranged by Charles Stepney.
This is sheer class all the way but highlights include the perfectly tooled funk of Shining Star, the ravishing mid-tempo title-track, Philip Bailey in full-flight on the killer ballad Reasons, the Janus-faced Africano shunting Chicagoan antecedents like Phil Cohran into hot jazz-funk…
Start here if you don’t own any Earth Wind & Fire.
‘Gathers revelatory unheard material from this prolific period including the fabled Electric Nebraska sessions with the E Street Band and solo home and studio recordings, joined by a 2025 remaster of the original album, plus a new performance film of all ten Nebraska songs played in sequence.

This is the sublime, eleven-minute version, featuring vocalist Gavin Christopher.
Big Theo Parrish record.
Backed with the promo-only disco mix of Saturday Night, lavished with percussion by Sheila E.

‘Amidst production from heavy hitters like Dr. Dre, Havoc of Mobb Deep and DJ Premier, Nas weaves evocative narratives of gang warfare, downtrodden neighborhoods, drug deals gone awry, and gangsta triumph, against a backdrop of samples from Sam Cooke, Etta James, the Isley Brothers, and even Chuck Mangione. With guest turns from Lauryn Hill, AZ, Foxy Brown, and Mobb Deep; classics like Street Dreams and If I Ruled The World.’
