Impex Records
A member of Rolling Stone Magazine´s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list and a multi-platinum seller That´s the Way of the World is as popular as it is relevant; a tightly focused, socially conscience "message" piece that you can dance to. It´s simply one of the great funk albums, bouyed by three huge radio hits: "Shining Star," "Reasons" and the title track. Says Rolling Stone: "Earth, Wind and Fire´s sixth album is make out music of the gods." Impex´s all-analog LP is cut from original masters--something a certain recent international LP cannot claim--and you´ll know it when you play it. George Massenberg´s recording is clean, punchy and full of low-down bass goodness. Kevin Gray and Robert Pincus needed to do little to the stellar Sony vaulted master tapes and with RTI´s meticulous pressing and our strict quality control, this is the ultimate expression of a seminal funk record. A VERY funky record.
