The once monolithic Motown Sound had begun to fragment in the early '70s, and into the breach came Philadelphia International, the label run by genius producers/songwriters Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff. A lot of Gamble and Huff's songs of the period were frankly political; the war in Vietnam was still raging and racial tensions still simmering. Fortunately, they were also interested in more traditional, and more pleasant pop subjects, and this anthology collects some of their finest romantic efforts as performed by their number one musical spokespersons. Only two of these songs were chart hits--the title track and "Stairway to Heaven" (not the Led Zeppelin staple)--but in a better, gentler world they all would have been.
