Various Artists - Philly Groove Records Presents: Deeper In The Groove (2023 Remaster) (2023)

This compilation is a collection of soul and disco tracks from the extensive catalog of the legendary Philadelphia label Philly Groove Records, founded by Stan Watson. The album is part of the "Philly Groove Records Presents" reissue series, launched after the catalog was acquired by the media company Reservoir Media Management in 2012.

Deeper In The Groove features compositions by various artists who worked with the label in the 70s, such as Flashlight, Quickest Way Out, Finishing Touch, David Lasley, Terry Collins, Tapestry, and Broadway Express. This 2023 edition offers the listener a refreshed, remastered sound of classic soul recordings, including a rare Tom Moulton remix of a Terry Collins track, allowing for a deeper dive into the unique "Philly groove" of the 1970s, characterized by rich arrangements, smooth rhythms, and powerful vocals.
