5.0 out of 5 stars TSOP, March 16, 2009

By	B. Melody (Yonkers,, NY United States) - See all my reviews

I got a glimpse of this concert on PBS a few weeks ago and couldn't wait to purchase the DVD. This is the music I grew up on. Man! the music took me way back in the day, to those basement parties. I thought the production was great, the TSOP orchestra did a magnificient job and the sound quality was great. The best performance, in my book was by "The Mighty O'jays". They definitely brought the house down with a mini O'jays concert, belting out "I love music", "She use to be my girl" and "Love train". All the performances was good, even the bonus tracks by The Delfonics and Harold Melvin's Blue notes. The documentary as a bonus, was well put together and really gave you a good insight of the history of Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff the founders of TSOP.

4.0 out of 5 stars Proud to be from Philly, May 19, 2009

By	Ronald J. Begley (Philadelphia, PA. United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

And to have music like this representing my hometown. Understandably, some of the vocals here aren't on a par with the original recordings, but the best gauge of the quality of Gamble and Huff's music is that it doesn't sound dated 35 years after it was created.

The only disappointment for me was that there wasn't more concert footage included (The Intruders are conspicuously missing). Even that is partially made up for by the inclusion of a 40 minute plus mini-documentary on the making of the DVD.

5.0 out of 5 stars What can I say ? : Phillysound rules!!, May 10, 2009

By	Rico Vrijhoeven (Belgium, Aubel) - See all my reviews

I buy al lot of "american" dvd's because in Europe these dvd's are not for sale. So everytime it's a bit of a surprise what you get. This dvd is amazing. The Sound and the performances of the O'Jays and Harold melvin make this dvd sparkling and takes you back to the seventies. My wish is to see those groups for once in my life. I hope they will come to Europe one of thes days!!!
Dont forget the bonus section with the full version of TSOP!!!! Dance across the room
