Here we have a performance of the philly classic backstabbers, if you get chance check out Tailgate by 21st Creation on motown records for a killer piece of heavy disco that deals with the same subject matter.
Backstabbers - The O’Jays on Soul Train
June 28th, 2007
Harold Melvin & The Bluenotes - Reaching For The World
June 19th, 2007
Philadelphia, the City of Brotherly Love has produced some amazing emotional soul & disco. Harold Melvin & The Bluenotes contributed massively to this output on the tsop label with global hits like “The Love I Lost” & “Don’t Leave Me This Way” through to socially conscious songs such as “Wake Up Everybody” and “Bad Luck”
They departed Philadelphia International for ABC Records, based in New York in 1977. “Reaching for the World” became the group’s final major single…Emotional Stuff.
