CD Reviews

MFSB's 1975 and 1976 masterpieces now on CD.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"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 CD (with excellent sound quality) as these albums capture the magic of the Philadelphia Soul sound at a time when it had truly reached its apex. Enjoy!"
