About this album

Love Is The Message is a landmark Philadelphia soul album that helped define the lush, dancefloor-ready Sound of Philadelphia. Released in 1973, it captures MFSB at the centre of a scene built by the veteran studio musicians at Sigma Sound and guided by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff’s production team. The album moves between slick soul, funk and early disco, with the title track and the enduring theme "TSOP (The Sound of Philadelphia)" showing how polished arrangement and rhythmic drive could meet pop immediacy. Its influence on disco and modern soul was enormous, making MFSB one of the key forces behind the era’s sound.
