While on a much-needed vacation, I stopped at a record store (yes! physical record stores still exist!) with the tasteful name of the Electric Fetus. (Well, at least there was no risk that the URL was already taken.) There, I got a marvy deal on a marvy box set: Love Train: The Sound of Philadelphia. Highly recommended for anyone who wants 4 discs of some of the '70s' very best orchestrations, melodies, and harmonies. For today's Friday Funtime, a sampling of some highlights:1. The Delfonics, "Ready or Not, Here I Come"
2. Jerry Butler, "Only the Strong Survive"
3. Joe Simon, "Drowning in the Sea of Love"
4. MFSB, "Family Affair"
5. Billy Paul, "Thanks for Saving My Life"
6. The Trammps, "Where Do We Go From Here"
7. Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes, "Wake Up Everybody"
8. The O'Jays, "I Love Music" (the L-O-N-G version!)
9. The Manhattans, "Kiss and Say Goodbye"
10. Dee Dee Sharp, "I'm Not in Love"
