Sounds Of North Philly
CD (Item 44346) Philly Archives, Late 60s — Condition: New Copy
Fantastic harmony soul from Philly! This set features work by two lost Philadelphia groups – The Royal Five and The Informers – both 60s ensembles with a tight harmony approach that's in the best style of the city's rich soul heritage – staying strong on the uptempo cuts, and hitting some heavenly highs on the sweeter and ballad tracks. The package is wonderful – with great notes, excellent sound, and an overall approach that shows a real love for the music, and that the producer has been in contact with the artists in recent years. Both groups never issued any full LPs – and the CD brings together rare singles and unreleased tracks that will hopefully make both of them bigger names in the annals of soul music! The set features 9 tracks by The Royal Five – including "Gonna Keep Loving You", "Don't Stop", "Nobody Else", "Five Miles", "Ain't No Big Thing", and "Peace of Mind" – plus 12 more by The Informers – including "Think About It", "Lady of The Night", "Love You", "I'd Rather Do It Myself", "If You Love Me", and "Baby Set Me Free". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
