This music beats the recent Super Bowl halftime show offerings any day of the week. I need to make a note to look for this documentary.

I’m there. Loved me some O’Jays back in the day.

LOL, I still remember Eddie Murphy doing Teddy Pendergrass, “YOU GOT..YOU GOT..YOU GOT..WHAT I NEED!”

When I saw “sound of philadelphia doc” I got all excited and thought it might be something one could download. Then I saw it was a movie. *sad trombone sound*

Backstabbers is so good. Even though it's a sequel to a Motown song, Smiling Faces Sometimes, which they kid of acknowledge in the song.

After Motown lost it’s soul moving to LA, the Stax bankruptcy and leaving Memphis and moving Oakland, Philly soul took over. Spinners, (love) the Delfonics, Stylistics too many to mention. Even Elton worked with Thom Belle:

Wonderful music. I happily remember watching “Soul Train” Saturdays during the 1970s.

The Stylistics were just plain beautiful. (C)Rap happened and destroyed all this beautiful Black music.

Sounds so good….just at a glance.

I loved the non-romance songs. They stand out maybe since they’re so rare.

Mentioned was “Back-stabbers”, but also there was “Smiling Faces” which is better. Then on the other end there was “Only the Strong Survive”.

So much to love. Hoping many will be in my ‘70s survey when I get to that.
