Message In The Music

Album US 1976 on Philadelphia International Records label
R&B/Soul (Soul, Funk, Gospel)

Rare cover notes: 'In this day of confusion, we must find the root of the problem in order to solve it. The problem is a lack of truth and communication among man and woman. Therefore, the wrong interpretation of life and life's purpose has been exposed. The word with music is one of the strongest, if not the strongest means of communication on the planet Earth. Music is the first means of communication known to man. It is the only natural science known to man. We choose to 'make a joyful noise unto the Lord' only to help vindicate His name. So His will can be done. The word with music can do it's part to calm the savage beast that lives in every man. The message is PEACE. The message is LOVE. The message is WISDOM. The message is UNDERSTANDING. The message is UNITY. The message is dedicated to truth and justice for all mankind. Man Understanding Spiritual Information Clearly ''Understand while you dance'' -Kenneth Gamble Special thanks to Bobby Martin, Jack Faith and Ron Kersey and all the musicians that make these recordings possible. Recorded at Sigma Sound Studios, Philadelphia, Pa. Mastered at Frankford/Wayne Mastering Labs, Philadelphia,Pa.
