EARTH WIND & FIRE
The Best Of Vol. 1
 (1978)
Columbia Records
picture disc

Nice copy of the Promo-Only picture disc supplied to radio stations in 1979 of Earth, Wind & Fire's "The Best Of Earth, Wind & Fire, Vol. 1". This is one of those rarities from the Golden Age of rock 'n roll radio, when the record companies were riding high and spared no expense on special goodies like this for their favorite radio programmers. This Lp compiles 10 of EWF's finest '70s hits, every one a radio smash - except for "Serpentine Fire", which is inexplicably not included, go figure.

Vinyl: MINT. SEALED. UNPLAYED. (Visually Graded)
 Cover: MINT. (Click on photos to enlarge). 


  It is extremely rare and just about impossible to find.    It doesn't get any better than this.  This is one of the holy grails of picture discs.

The Best of Earth, Wind & Fire, Vol. 1 is a 1978 compilation album collecting the charting singles of Earth, Wind & Fire. In addition to collecting previously charting songs, the album also presented two tracks which were a cover of the Beatles' song "Got to Get You Into My Life" and the original track "September", both of which also became charting singles, the former also winning a Grammy Award.

The compilation album itself placed on three Billboard charts, reaching #3 on Black Albums, #6 on Pop Albums. It reached #6 on the album charts in Britain. The Best of Earth, Wind & Fire, Vol. 1 has been certified as 5X Platinum. The Best of Earth, Wind & Fire, Vol. 1 is ranked numbers 30 and 44 on Allmusic's list of the Top urban and R&B albums of all time respectively
