Greetings, Rocksmith fans!
Dan’s (or, rather, Chris’) clue has been solved, and it looks like we’ll be getting a rather appropriate start to the month of September; legendary funk/soul/disco/jazz/R&B group Earth, Wind & Fire is finally coming to Rocksmith!
Why, that’s the founder of CNN, Ted Turner!
That’s a Geordi LaForge doll from Star Trek, Wheeler Hall at UC Berkely, and Red Linka Blocks.
This is absolutely fantastic news (for me at least, since I’ve been requesting EWF songs for who knows how long), as I’ve seen quite a number of comments on the forums and on Facebook asking for more funk music on the game. Surprisingly, EWF have had only one music/rhythm game appearance before; Shining Star as Rock Band 2 DLC on March 17th, 2009.
Since it’s a three-pack, what songs could we be looking forward to? Obviously, this song is a given;
How about dat funky guitar line?
Come on, disco ain’t dead!
Perhaps if Ubisoft SF were going for more of their earlier funk as opposed to their disco material. Also because it was in Rock Band 2.
Dat guitar solo and slap bass.
Unlikely, considering it’s a three-pack and this song is a little light on guitar, but it’s their biggest hit and highest-charting single.
Here are their top 10 most popular songs on Spotify, which one do you think are most likely to make it into the pack? (Although Got to Get You into My Life is a Beatles song, so it’s not very likely.)
So what do you think, Rocksmith fans? Are you as excited as I am for the arrival of Earth, Wind & Fire? Are you disappointed that it’s only a three-pack? Leave a comment below, and we’ll see you on Tuesday!
