Indeed it is, Bob. I have always been an EW&F fanboy and was fortunate to see them a few years ago at the Paramount in NYC.

RIP Maurice. Your magnificent voice and legacy will endure in our hearts and minds for a very long time!

I wonder if his last 5 years were ok, or all a horrible suffering period of decline.

What a producer!!!

"September" is one of those songs that, wherever you are and whatever you're doing, you just have to start moving to it.

RIP, Mr. White.

And an ace drummer, too, who can be heard on many mid-'60s Chess/Checker hits (listen to his amazing work on Billy Stewart's "Summertime" as proof of his talent).

RIP.
