Didn't see this anywhere in the first several comments, so I'll just say it here: the tunes are "On Your Face" and "Serpentine Fire".

[mliedtke]

I keep coming back to watch this because it's so much more real than other versions. If you can appreciate the subtleties, you realize how greatly talented he is. Takes years to finesse a melody like that.

1st tune he played; "On Your Face", 2nd tune; "Serpentine Fire" . . . awesome axeman for EWF!!

My Guitar hero growing up thank you Al

i have to watch this at least once a month...The Great Al McKay is the reason i play guitar today... as a teenager when i would listen to EW& F, i would close my bedroom door and put on my headphones and imagine i was Al McKay, playing along with Verdine and Maurice and Larry and them...i would visualize myself onstage playing the amazing guitar parts on "On Your Face", "Love's Holiday", "Mighty Mighty", "Getaway", "Jupiter", "Magic Mind", "Flowers"(the Emotions), "You And I"(from 'I Am'), "Love Vibes" (The Emotions), etc...even the often forgotten Finis Henderson classic "Skip To My Lou" produced and played on by Al McKay is/was an eternal inspiration to me...like Norman said, he is the greatest rhythm guitar player in music history...and in my opinion, the greatest guitar player EVER, period....

So much respect for this guy. You can tell that even after so many years he still enjoys and has fun playing

Mr Mc Kay you made me play guitar. After I bought a EWF record. I picked up guitar playing at the age of 15. And it kept me occupied all these years. It has given me love fullfillment and piece of mind during some troublesome years.

Thank you for the music Mr

I never knew who you were. But now I hear your riffs I know you are my shining star.

My grandson is two years old and EWF is his favorite band and his favorite songs are Fantasy, Getaway and Saturday Night. Al is one of the greatest guitarist ever. ❤

Absolute legend! Earth Wind & Fire back in the day were the best band on the planet because of great musicians like Al McKay were in the group.
