Philadelphia Freedom & Summertime

MFSB - Philadelphia Freedom (1975) & Summertime (1976) [2CD] [2010, Remastered Reissue] Music

Posted by BlondStyle at Nov. 20, 2023

The two classic albums reissued on this CD are from 1975 and 1976. While they didn't exactly set the world on fire, they DID leave the listener with no doubt as to just how talented the musicians that made up MFSB were and that they could tackle everything from Disco to Funk to Soul to MOR-Pop with grace, class and musical virtuosity. It's definitely great to have these classics on CDs as these albums capture the magic of the Philadelphia Soul sound at a time when it had truly reached its apex. Enjoy!

Best known for recording the hit theme to Soul Train, MFSB were the pre-eminent instrumental outfit of Philadelphia soul, backing numerous Kenny Gamble/Leon Huff productions while recording regularly on their own throughout the '70s. The group's name stood for Mother Father Sister Brother, and prior to their formation in 1971 as the house band at Gamble and Huff's Sigma Sound studios, some of the core personnel had been working together as early as 1968. Guitarists Norman Harris and Bobby Eli, bassist Ronnie Baker, and drummer Earl Young had an uncredited dance hit with "The Horse," the instrumental flip side of singer Cliff Nobles' "Love Is All Right." As the Horse dance craze swept Philadelphia, the group also backed singers the Fantastic Johnny C and (as the James Boys) Jesse James, while also issuing singles as the Music Makers and Family.

This package also contains the full-length version of the classic 'Let's Clean Up The Ghetto' which featured all the major artists on the Philadelphia International label, but the driving force behind this hit was defiantly M.F.S.B.'T.S.O.P (The Sound Of Philadelphia)' was the ensemble's first smash hit single, and went to No. 1 on both the R&B & Pop Chart back in 1974, and was adopted as the theme tune to the legendary Soul Train TV Show. The track also featured the Three Degrees on vocals… but it was not to be their only hit single. 'Sexy' was a No. 2 on the R&B chart in the summer of 75. Both 'T.S.O.P.' and 'Sexy' also charted in the U.K. The package also includes the track 'K-Jee' probably best known for it's inclusion on the "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack album. Other stand-out tracks are 'Mysteries Of The World', 'Love Is The Message' and 'Dance With Me Tonight' which Robinsongs include here in the rare 12" mix.

Each volume was issued on either compact disc, cassette or (with volumes issued prior to 1991) vinyl record.

"The Complete Thom Bell Sessions" brings together the complete recording session by Elton John and producer Thom Bell onto one album. Released in 1989 by MCA Records, the album is composed of the material previously released in 1979 as well as the songs that were recorded at the original session but had then gone unreleased. Two of the "new" songs were co-written by John - "Nice and Slow" was co-written with Thom Bell and longtime writing partner Bernie Taupin, and "Shine on Through" with lyricist Gary Osborne. Because the recordings were shelved at the time, the latter was re-recorded and included on John's 1978 LP, "A Single Man".
