Went for a wander on my lunch break, and passing by a mess in an alley made this #GettingClean song spring to mind. A classic of Philly Soul, it's ideal for the #JukeboxFridayNight.

If you're in #Lancaster on tonight & love #PhillySoul then pop into the Stonewell Tap (Church St.) when #ProfDJ will be playing nothing but #TSOP all evening (all on vinyl)
Indulge yourself in some lush, symphonic #soul, grab some wonderful artisanal #beer & forget the sh*tshow outside.
When all around seems dark, Philly Soul will lift your mood (or at the least get your foot tapping!)

๐ฌ Exactly 50 years ago this week, #TheSpinners released "One of a Kind Love Affair" from their self-titled LP. It was a crossover hit on soul, top 40 and easy listening #radio.
#TheSpinners are nominated again this year to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame after being nom'd in 2015. It's past time.

The Thom Bell playlist on Spotify compiled by @somevelvetblog is great, but the Elton John songs are awkward! #philly #phillysoul #EltonJohn

I love the original "Betcha by Golly Wow" by the #Stylistics, but #Prince knocked it out of the park with his cover version.

Many around my age first heard Mr. Bell's amazing music as kids when our parents, uncles, and aunts played vinyls or 8-tracks of songs he wrote, performed, arranged or produced. Some are still favorites to this day and are constantly in my playlist rotation. Gonna link "Betcha by Golly, Wow" by the #Stylistics and later covered by #Prince in my next post. ๐

Producer/arranger/composer Thom Bell dead at 79. The foundation of 1970s Philly Soul. Nobody could combine classical orchestration and wicked grooves like him.

Mad props to the young delivery truck driver blasting deep 1960s cuts from The Intruders with the van doors wide open while delivering to the apartments across the street.
Earlier this year on Medium, I started a series of articles about my favourite music.
Here's one with 9 Philly soul tracks I love, including Jean Carn, Phyllis Hyman, and The Jones Girls:
