"Light of the Worlds" was, by far, Kool & the Gang's most spiritual and sophisticated work, produced in the wake of the success of their previous album, "Wild and Peaceful." While it was their seventh album of new material, the Gang considered "Light of the Worlds" their ninth LP (counting two compilations), and therefore consciously chose nine songs for the album, to represent the nine planets in the solar system. The album contains rock-inspired funk set to jazz-informed playing with afrobeat influences and a tinge of analogue synthesizing. "Summer Madness" is considered to be the album's highlight, incorporating smooth melodies and a mesmerizing synthesizer. It was later released as a single, with a follow up titled "Winter Sadness" to the Gang's Spirit of the Boogie a year later. ---Editorial Reviews, amazon.com
