Gamble & Huff mark 50 years of Philly Soul

They helped turn The O'Jays, Teddy Pendergrass, Harold Melvin and the Three Degrees into hitmakers and brought us songs like "Love Train," "If You Don't Know Me By Now," "Expressway To Your Heart," and "When Will I See You Again," just to name a few. 

Now Philly Sound pioneers Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff are celebrating half a century in the music biz and are looking back at their success - and into the future. 

My favorite part of this story is the fact that one of them was working in a hospital washing dishes and doing menial labor when they met purely by chance on an elevator - an encounter that would lead to 50 years of hits. Incredible.
