Originally released in 1977, ALL IN ALL shows Earth, Wind & Fire breaking out of their previous funk/R&B mold and incorporating touches of world music to their sound. The result is a landmark album that sounds just as fresh more than 20 years later. A visit to Argentina and Brazil helped Maurice White and the gang inject some new influences into the recording of ALL IN ALL.
Opener "Serpentine Fire" is highlighted by Maurice's Latin percussion arrangement. "Fantasy," which features Philip Bailey's soaring vocals, is simply one of the great funk songs of the era. "Jupiter" features a tight, blasting horn section. "I'll Write a Song for You" is a smooth ballad with tender harmonies and strings. The album concludes with a live version of "Brazilian Rhyme," one of three bonus tracks included on this reissue. If you're only familiar with Earth, Wind & Fire's radio hits, pick up ALL IN ALL. The harmonies, grooves and top-notch production will make you a believer.

このアルバムで彼らの重力は一層軽くなったような気がする。彼らの武器である切れの良いホーン隊はその鋭さを増し、果てしない宇宙へと続く天空を駆け巡る。もはやファンタジーの領域を超えている。
ミーハーな自分は「聖なる愛の歌」に惹かれる。1000億光年の彼方から聴こえてくるようなピュアなファルセット・ヴォイスが、美しい旋律を紡いでいて、聴いていて心が洗われるようだ。
この後、銀河の覇者たちは、ベスト・アルバムを挟んで再び長岡秀星 氏の描く太陽の神に刻印された黙示録を発表し、大作『フェイセズ』へと旅を続けていくことになる。
