5.0 out of 5 stars The Sweet Sound of EWF, March 12, 2010

Whoever's idea it was to hand-pick the songs for this particular CD is an absolute genius. With soo many EWF songs to choose from in their extensive catalog, this collection of songs is nothing short of pure brilliance. From beginning to end, this CD is absolutely amazing, showcasing some of EWF's biggest hits to a few of their lesser known ones. At any rate, this CD gets a "Classic Status" rating from me. There's not one sond on this CD that I'm willing to fast-forward thru to get to the next one. Each song stands on its own. If you love good old school singing and you love EWF, then this CD will fit perfectly into your library. These are some of their sweetest songs...

5.0 out of 5 stars Some of EWF's best!!, May 7, 2007

This CD features many of EWF's best songs...from songs that inspire ("Keep Your Head to the Sky," "Devotion") to songs that seduce ("Love's Holiday," "Can't Hide Love"). No, this is not a complete discology of the group, and it's not meant to be. These are their best ballards, which are a testament of the amazing songwriting/producing talents of Maurice White.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful collection, January 3, 2007

While there have been past compilations of EWF's ballads including "Love Songs", this is an excellent collection to buy if you don't own any of the previous ones. While EWF is largely known as a funk/R&B band, some of their best songs were ballads, and "Beautiful Ballads" compiles beloved songs including "After the Love Has Gone", "Reasons", "Devotion", "Can't Hide Love" and "Fantasy".

The remastering on this set is superb and every song is classic EWF. Highly recommended.
