Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band film, also makes its first appearance on an EWF album here, as does the track "Love Music.

Earth, Wind & Fire Format: Vinyl. I was ecstatic when I found this album at such a great price. Turns out I was actually wanting volume 2 of this collection which is much harder to find and definitely not this cheap. So I was a little bummed but that’s not the vendors fault. This album was just as described and sounds great.
