Verndine is so HUMBLE. I am still an EWF fan for life.
These men, this band, this family of poets transported my entire soul when I was a child. The more you listen the deeper the message gets. Timeless.
"Maurice White, My Life With Earth Wind and Fire," by Herb Powell. For serious EWF fans, this is an account of Maurice White's cherished memories from his mouth, going back to those childhood days in Memphis, where his fascination with drumming, and marching band parades, first started. The book is a must have keepsake, for the fire still burning in all of us, from this man's dream turned reality, Earth Wind, and Fire.
It blew my mind when I read how Maurice White picked cotton. Later he wrote a slave song called "Ain't no Harm to Moan"
This was my childhood ❤ I Love to see and hear that music! Thank you for showing this!
Thanks for watching
Earthwind n Fire will always be my favorite!! They are a Class Group !! I miss MAURICE!! IT STILL SADENS ME THAT HE IS GONE !! Still Very hard to Accept !!
Man, It's amazing how mellow Verdine is, but once he's on stage...he just turns on that switch!
So true! Such a great guy
I Think Verdine is a VERY SPECIAL MAN !!
FACTS. Very blessed. Very gifted.
Verndine. Is very kind peerson . I spoke to him and took pictures with him. It was a wonderful moments.
He’s a class act. And EW&F is part of the soundtrack to our lives.
That helps thanks forbwatching
EW&F was on a TV special last night, and I've been binging ever since. Verdine is a class act, and Philip Bailey's vocal range is insane.
Somethings the algorithm delivers what you didn't know that you needed. A genius with a big, humble heart and an amazing memory. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Well I’m so glad they delivered it to you
Giants in the industry! Truly incredible!
Verdine is a humble human being and I had the honor of doing a show opening for EWF in 2000 in Morocco. It was an unusual show (I was playing bass with Eartha Kitt) that featured Eartha Kitt, EWF and James Brown for the King's 37th Birthday. We only had the one performance, but we were in Rabat, the Capital, for 3 days. I had a chance to do my own interview with Verdine and learn a lot of history of which I'm grateful. With that said, the photo you have at the introduction of this video (:53 mark) is not Verdine's bass teacher and EWF Horns trombonist Louis Satterfield. That's Philadelphia bassist and Ornette Coleman alum Jamalaadeen Tacuma.
Thank you for the correction
❤❤❤Mr. Verdine White--SO blessed❤
he may not wow you with his playing at NAMM because he's not a chop guy bu,t you better bet he will WOW you when you listen to the bass lines he came up with and laid down on those EWF records absolute GENIUS!!! and all those chop guys spend cray time learning and will never create what he did!!! one of the GOAT's
Verdine White is such a big teddy bear in heart. One of the greatest bass player of all time. I am a true fan of EWF and glad to say that Verdine White, Philip Bailey and Ralph Johnson are keeping the 🎶 music and the vision of Maurice White alive by passing on the music to our young people. My Neices and Nephews and great my great Neices & Nephews know the music of Earth Wind & Fire!!!These guys are true legends. Their music will live on.🎶 🎵 🧸
Verndine very humble Beginning and caring Spiritual person I like,All Albums 🙏💪😮 they made.
You are so Divinely Special Verdine, I love your musical skills especially Bass; I really can't see living life without:EW&F...
Verdine White has always been my favorite member of EW&F since I saw him perform at IU coming from the ceiling playing his bass guitar ❤
He is amazing
I loved this interview! Verdine is so humble and crazy talented. I didn’t know their original group name until this conversation . BRAVO Derick!
Amazing man! Legendary musician, fantastic singer, performer, writer, singer, infectious smile, just great to see this man who I have admired since the early seventies, as a kid discovering Earth, Wind and Fire.
Thank you so much for watching

Verdine, genious!
Excellent interview! I saw them in the early 70's at the Memorial Auditorium in Sacramento, CA. So incredible! Love them!!! Verdine is incredible!

EWF performed at Memorial Auditorium in Sacramento in ‘75 and ‘76 and sadly didn’t come back to Sac until after their revival (System of Survival) Touch the World LP. released ‘87

Thank you for watching
@@DerickMonroe of course, shout out to your white brothers and sisters! I’m German😁
@@beautyRest1 it’s for everyone! Who loves Earth Wind and Fire and Verdine white
@@DerickMonroe yes, so true, the beauty of music is that it brings all kinds of people together and transcend above color and language. And that is definitely the case with the music of Earth, Wind and Fire!
Such a brilliant interview, thoroughly enjoyed, can listen to Verdine White for hours upon hours, thank you
Dont forget the movie "thats the way of the world"
I'm the biggest fan.this is it for me.
Great interview. Relaxed, and the questions were so relevant for superfans. Well-informed interviewer, too.
Thank you so much for watching and supporting
A Lengendary Player from a Lengendary band!
I found you by happenstance but, am officially a new fan and subbie. I've brm binge watching your videos. You are attentive, respectful and excited to talk to legends. God bless and keep doing this. Sending PEACE and LOVE from Philadelphia
Great interview!!!
Awww thank u for watching!
🎉Liked, Subscribed and Shared🎉
conscious band
Love this interview Derick!!👏👏👏👏
The interviewer asked how they stayed together for so many years, but if you think about it, Earth, Wind. and Fire is Verdine, Philip and Ralph. There were nine all together. Other than Maurice I would’ve asked what happened to the other five, Larry Dunn, Al McKay, brother Fred White (who just passed away), Andrew Woolfolk(who died last spring) and Johnny Graham?
I still feel such a sadness !!! I read a lot about EARTH WIND AND FIRE !!
THEIR STORY !! I FEEL LIKE I CAN IMAGINE WHAT THEY WENT THROUGH ... UP'S AND DOWNS !! THEIR STORY OF FAME AND LOSS. THEY EXPIERENCED IT ALL !! AND STILL STAYED ON TOP !! I TRULY FEEL A WARMTH IN MY HEART AND MY MIND !! THAT WILL STAY FOREVER !!! I STILL FEEL SOME ANGER THAT MAURICE IS GONE !! BUT SO HAPPY THAT 3 OF THE ORIGINALS ARE STILL TOGETHER !! THEY ARE DECENT MEN !!
You are a god Verndine
Awesome interview! EWF is my favorite band 🥰
Thanks for watching and thank you for commenting
@@DerickMonroe you're welcome
🎸🌺 🎸🌺
I want to know the story about the hair. I want to know why him and Ashford wore long hair.
Years ago I met back up singer with group.. He left.the group.. He goes under the name TAYLOR NOW !! I WONDER WHERE TAYLOR IS ?? DOES Verdine know ??
"God Work"
Im late to the party. VERY GOOD INTERVIEW. I grew up listening to EW&F and the COMMODORES. In my opinion!!! EWF and the COMMODORES are the best 2 R&B soul bands in the history of American R&B music. Which band is number 1 is arguable? In my opinion!!! MINT CONDITION is a solid number 3 for best R&B band of all time.
