Two of Philadelphia Soul's most important musicians take center stage... June 4, 2008
This CD reissues the LPs which the late Norman Harris and the legendary Leon Huff recorded for Philadelphia International Records in 1980. Neither was a commercial success but are well worth having if only because both men were key figures in the rise of Philly Soul and Disco. Norman's album is primarily a showcase for his masterful and fluid guitar playing while Leon's album is a (mostly) instrumental R&B/Smooth Jazz-infused affair but also features such illustrious guests as Stevie Wonder, Teddy Pendergrass, The Jones Girls, Eddie Levert and Walter Williams to keep things hot (vocally). Interestingly enough, these albums do not sound much like the classic PIR albums of the period but any fan of '70s Soul or Disco would probably love them as both are representative of both genres' evolution.
