The soul music scene was bursting with energy in the early 1970s. In Detroit, Berry Gordy's Motown was the "Sound of Young America" and Philly was next with "The Sound of Philadelphia. "Undoubtedly, one of the best local vocal groups of the time that defined what came to be known as "Philly Soul"was the Philly Devotions. As good as any of the better-known groups associated with this sweet sound, the Devotions' singles were largely ignored by commercial radio.
