(Kayos) Eagle Rock Entertainment will release Earth, Wind & Fire Live In Japan in a specially-packaged two-disc CD/DVD set on August 26.

Surely, one of the most successful, dynamic and creative funk bands ever to come out of the 1970s, Earth, Wind & Fire, led by singer/songwriter/producer Maurice White, is captured in this double-disc set on CD and DVD in 1990 during White�s final tour with the band after a sterling 19-year run as band leader where the former drummer proved to be the incredible entertainer he ultimately became.

Touring in support of 1990�s Heritage album, the show, in front of thousands of adoring and unusually demonstrative Japanese fans, is a tour-de-force of the power, the artistry, the elegance, and the soul of this all-time great funk machine. Spectacularly staged, and beautifully filmed, Live In Japan stands as the ultimate testament to a band whose music will never die.

Leader Maurice White, born in 1941, moved to Chicago as a teenager and played drums on numerous early rock�n�roll and blues records at the legendary Chess label. He formed Earth Wind & Fire in 1969 and hasn�t looked back.

Other Earth, Wind & Fire funkfests on Eagle DVD include Live At Montreux 1997 & 1998, Shining Stars and In Concert. All of these shows, filmed with abso-funkin�-lutely festive freedom, are solid hours of exquisitely syncopated funk, dazzling choreography and mighty bigtime horn blasts on jams of epic proportions.

Now, with the release of Live In Japan, Earth, Wind & Fire has come circle in hiphopping the globe, proof positive that the inherent joy emanating from this ensemble, knows no cultural or geographic borders.
