Artists

D'Angelo established himself as an unwitting founder and leading light of the late-'90s neo-soul movement, which aimed to bring the organic flavor of classic R&B back to the hip-hop age.

Jones Girls

While they weren't a Philly soul group in the strictest sense, no overview of the greatest recordings written and produced by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff — or most of the scene's other major figures, including Linda Creed, Thom Bell, and Dexter Wansel — would be complete without the Jones Girls.

Manhattan Transfer

Acclaimed vocal ensemble the Manhattan Transfer are recognized for bringing the harmonized vocal jazz and traditional pop of the '40s back to modern audiences. Formed in 1969 in New York City, the Manhattan Transfer was initially somewhat of a hippie novelty act similar to the Lovin' Spoonful or Spanky & Our Gang.
