Ramsey Lewis and Earth, Wind & Fire: “Sun Goddess” (1975)
From R&B/jazz pianist Ramsey Lewis’ gold-selling album of the same name, this 1975 single features members of Earth, Wind & Fire and was co-written by Maurice White.
Although this 45 edit of “Sun Goddess” rose to #44 in the Billboard Hot 100 (and #20 in the soul singles charts) it is a bit of a rare commodity, having never appeared on any American-release EWF album or compilation.

Graffiti6: “Under the Mask” (2014)
You’d swear this prescient pop tune was released in April of 2020 and not April of 2014:
I see your light
I see your light
No matter where you turn
Or where you hide
I see it all
Shining so bright
You say that you’re not sure
And there’s no cure
But there’s a way
To fly away
There is a light, there is a light in your heart
There is a light burning a fire in the dark
Under the mask, under the mask we’re beautiful
So let out the light, no need to hide anymore
Under the mask
There is a space
There is a space
Somewhere that you belong
It keeps you strong
It’s in my arms
‘Cause it is your space
No matter where we turn
Or where we hide
We’ll fly away
So fly away
There is a light, there is a light in your heart
There is a light burning a fire in the dark
Under the mask, under the mask we’re beautiful
So let out the light, no need to hide anymore
Don’t turn away
Don’t hide away darling
Don’t turn away
Don’t hide away
I see you under the mask
Under the mask
There is a light, there is a light in your heart
There is a light burning a fire in the dark
Under the mask, under the mask we’re beautiful
So let out the light, no need to hide anymore
Under the mask
There is a light, there is a light in your heart
There is a light burning a fire in the dark
Under the mask, under the mask we’re beautiful
So let out the light, no need to hide anymore
