I Am

Released 1979Funk & Disco
Classic

A glossy disco-funk peak, home to 'Boogie Wonderland' and 'After the Love Has Gone'. Lavish and huge. A commercial high. Released in 1979, it's one of Earth, Wind & Fire's later high points.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
