MFSB were the house band for many of the finest Philly Soul acts, and this twofer, which pairs the group's albums GAMBLE & HUFF ORCHESTRA and MYSTERIES OF THE WORLD, represents their classic sound.

Released in 1999, MFSB & Gamble Huff Orchestra/Mysteries of the World contains two complete albums -- MFSB & Gamble Huff Orchestra (1978, originally released on Philadelphia International) and Mysteries of the World (1980, originally released on Philadelphia International) -- by MFSB on one compact disc. ~ Jason Birchmeier

MFSB (Mother, Father, Sister, Brother) were essentially Philadelphia International's studio band. Based in the Sigma Sound Studios, these Musicians played on virtually every record released on the Philadelphia label. They also found time to make their own albums for the label. These two date from 1978 and 1980, and feature contributions from Gamble and Huff themselves, as well as Dexter Wansel and Cynthia Biggs, and Jack Faith. Featured tracks are a reworking of Rose Royce's 'Wishing On A Star' and The O'Jays' hit 'Use Ta Be My Girl' and the UK hit 'Mysteries Of The World'. This package is fully annotated with photos. Diablo. 2005.

3 stars How about the rest...?
Great music, although the mysteries album had very little sax music and was more mellow.....The entire MFSB catalog needs to be released while there are still fans of their music around....
