Here's an excellent & inexpensive comp recently issued: Conquer The World: The Lost Soul Of Philadelphia International Records. None of the usual Philadelphia International suspects (O'Jays, Harold Melvin, MFSB, etc) are included. The most familiar name is Bunny Sigler, whose releases are mostly unfamiliar to me. Anyone who loves orchestrated soul should dig this set. My favorites include "Love Is Here" by the Futures, "Ghetto Woman" by Ruth McFadden, the funky "Grasshopper" by the Soul Devalents and the Bunny Sigler songs, "Everybody Needs Good Lovin" and "Theme From Five Fingers Of Death". Nice to hear rarities from this label, and I hope they do a follow-up.
