PHILADELPHIA SOUL

VA - Philadelphia the 40th Anniversary Box Set [2012] (10 x CDs)

A massive 10 CD boxset celebrating the legacy of the Philadelphia International label and the unforgettable music released from the early 70's up through the early 80's. Philadelphia International expert Ralph Tee compiled this boxset for the label following his previous ground-breaking 14 x vinyl LP box set in 1986. This time, Ralph has the added benefit of a further 25 years of experience studying the Philadelphia International operation and a lot more time to play with: almost 800 minutes or over 13 and 1/2 hours of pure quality music from one of the greatest labels of all time.
