\nFor generations of R&B fans, Earth, Wind & Fire have been an elemental force in the soundtrack of their lives. And 50 years after the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band \u2014 founded by the late Maurice White \u2014 dropped its self-titled debut, EWF is still making us groove to \u201970s classics such as «Shining Star,» «Boogie Wonderland» and, of course, «September.» On Friday, the Grammy-winning group released their new single «You Want My Love» \u2014 a Babyface-produced update of 1975\u2019s «Can\u2019t Hide Love.» The good times continue on Saturday, when the band will be part of the star-studded lineup at We Love NYC: the Homecoming Concert in Central Park. Here, lead singer Philip Bailey,70, and bassist Verdine White,70, share what playing Central Park means to them, how their Verzuz with the Isley Brothers went viral, and which element best symbolizes them.
