ROAAADDDDD TRIPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!! I am going to Philadelphia for the weekend to visit the afformentioned Blumstar and my other pal who's a Rocket Scientist
. No wonder they call it the city of Brotherly Love (actually comes from Greek; Phila, from Philos meaning Love, and Delphia, coming from Adelphos, meaning Brother).

As long as I'm there, I will be playing music from Phamous Philadelphians. Our first song comes from MFSB
(Mothers, Fathers, Sisters, Brothers), the 30 some-odd piece orchestra that played behind almost all of the Big Hitters of the Philadelphia Soul Sound
. It served as the theme for the TV mega-hit, Soul Train

Here, with by far the best video to grace this site yet is MFSB
with TSOP
. Watch through the 2:30 mark where things get really crazy and there's a cameo from an extremely young and limber Rosie Perez.
