THE STORY OF EARTH AND FIRE

This is probably the best compilation you can get from "Earth & Fire". Two of their epics are featured : "Atlantis" and "Song From The Marching Children" in an almost complete version of and all of their hit-singles as well.

It will be the opportunity to be able to listen to "Memories" which was a non-album song, the fantastic "Storm and thunder" and it is always a pleasure to listen to those prog pop anthems like : "Maybe Tomorrow..." : very catchy chorus, superb guitar break. I have also always loved very much a track as "Only Time Will Tell".

A weirdish half a chunk from "To The World Of The Future".

Some of their very old songs are interesting for the casual fan. You'll hear how psyche this band sounded in 1970 ("Wild and exciting ).

If ever you would like to get an overview of their good work, I strongly recommend this compilation. Don't even think of other ones because they either include their infect production of the late seventies (totally uninteresting), they are too concentrated on their first release (unless you donot had the opportunity to have listened to their debut album), or they skipp all their epics.

Four stars for this one.
