Ian Dewhirst Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) If ever there was a package that should in everyone's collection, then surely this one must be it! Following on from the massively popular "Philadelphia International: The Re-Edits" package, here is the 2nd release in our special "Philly 40" campaign which is celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Philadelphia International Records. Welcome to the hugely anticipated "Philadelphia International Classics: The Tom Moulton Remixes". Tom Moulton's involvement with Philadelphia International spans the entire 40 years of their existence with many of his early mixes unaccredited in the era before the 12" Disco Disc. In 1977 PIR released the ground-breaking historic original double LP "Philadelphia Classics" which featured 8 of Tom Moulton's greatest PIR mixes. The album has subsequently been reissued several times and is rightly hailed as a 'must have' classic for ANY serious music lovers' collection. We have now taken all 8 tracks featured on the original "Philadelphia Classics" added a further 7 'lost' Tom Moulton mixes which have previously never been easily available and commissioned a further 16 BRAND NEW Tom Moulton mixes on The O'Jay's "Back Stabbers", The Intruder's "(Win, Place or Show) She's A Winner", Billy Paul "The Whole Town's Talking", Robert Upchurch "The Devil Made Me Do It", The Three Degree's "Year Of Decision" and "When Will I See You Again", Archie Bell & The Drells' "Let's Groove" and "Where Will You Go When The Party's Over", Lou Rawls' "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" and "See You When I Git There", People's Choice "Jam Jam Jam (All Night Long)", Teddy Pendergrass' "I Don't Love You Anymore", The O'Jay's "This Time Baby", The Futures' "Party Time Man", Jean Carn's "My Love Don't Come Easy" and The Jones Girls' "Nights Over Egypt". This will be 31 true full-length Philadelphia International Classics in total delivered in a deluxe box with 4 separate CD's plus a 20 page booklet with sleeve notes by Lloyd Bradley and containing some rare photos of Tom and Sigma Sound studios. In short, "Philadelphia International Classics: The Tom Moulton Remixes" will be one 2012's most revered releases.

Ian Dewhirst Posted January 13, 2012 Author Posted January 13, 2012 ........................lately , your costing me a small fortune , nice Ian , very nice. Any chance of a taste of whats to come?. Ralph Tee's definitive 10CD Philadelphia International 40th Anniversary Box Set is coming up in March and then Richard Searling's "The Roots Of Philly" (with an exclusive Richard Searling/Kenny Gamble interview on DVD) should be ready for April touch wood. Personally I'd think about taking out that second mortgage about now Garv! Ian D
Ian Dewhirst Posted January 13, 2012 Author Posted January 13, 2012 ....and about time too. Let's make this the best year for Tom since '76 Steve I had to nurse Tom throughout this whole project. He was still tweaking some mixes @ midnight last Saturday night after working solidly for the last 4 months and he was physically and emotionally drained which I completely understand. I've been listening to these mixes since just before Xmas and the sheer wealth of material and musicianship on those master tapes is almost too much to comprehend and incredibly humbling when you understand the sheer level of musicianship and expertise employed on these recordings. I'm pretty confident in saying that these were the most well written, well produced and well arranged songs in 1970's Soul Music history. We will NEVER hear repertoire and productions of this level again in our lifetimes. We were so lucky to experience such a rich musical legacy as we were growing up. As Tom himself said the other night, "where the hell can we go after this"? to which I replied, "we've peaked mate, it'll NEVER get any better than this"! Ian D
Mike Lofthouse Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 sounds good Ian - just for my benefit what is the difference between a 're-edit' and 're-mix' , is 're-mix' using the actual tapes ?
Ian Dewhirst Posted January 14, 2012 Author Posted January 14, 2012 sounds good Ian - just for my benefit what is the difference between a 're-edit' and 're-mix' , is 're-mix' using the actual tapes ? Yep, got it in one Mike. In fact I wrote this on the 'Philadelphia International: The Re-Edits' thread:- "However, with the advent of re-edit culture and the increasing sophistication of affordable new technology, suddenly there was no longer the need to physically access the original master tapes - a costly and expensive process at the best of times. Now a re-editor could work from the comfort of his laptop and craft a re-edit at his or her leisure. This meant that rather than working in an expensive studio and compressing all your ideas into several hours or even several days, now re-edits can be done to each re-editors individual time-scales, whether they be over a couple of weeks or even a couple of years in some cases. The result has been that now a finished re-edit can finally be presented once someone has lived with it and tweaked it for weeks, months or even years. So, essentially, the disadvantages in not having access to the original multi-track tapes (and being able to isolate each track separately) can often be outweighed by the sheer time you can spend in getting something absolutely right without the time constraints of using an expensive studio".

When he mixed "The Love I Lost", he sent me about half a dozen versions each time he tweaked it. There were differences but to the untrained ear it would have been barely noticable. His excitement at what he had done though shone through and he would point out 'Do you like what I've done there... Do you not think that it sounds better with...', to which I had to agree. Subtle differences lost on many are so important to Tom... and Tom is so important to the music industry. We have so much to thank him for. Steve H

Steve H Yep, he's a real one-off who has never moderated his views or kissed ass to anyone. This project had so many logistical problems and licensing issues that there were times when I thought it would never happen but I'm so relieved that we got there in the end. He's still tweaking even as I write this. Once a perfectionist, always a pefectionist ay? Hope you're well mate! Ian D

Ian Dewhirst Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 (edited) Just an update to the tons of enquiries I've been fielding about this album since it was posted up in early January. Despite thinking that everything was OK due to all the meetings we had in mid 2011 with various parties, it still transpired that there were some incredibly torturous licensing issues to deal with on this project which have taken the best part of the last 8 weeks to square away! I'm happy to say that everything has now been finalised to everyone's satisfaction, all the parts have gone to manufacture and this incredible project will now be released on:- 26th MARCH 2012 This is the biggest ever pre-sell for any Harmless album since I've been here, so the demand has been absolutely huge. I'm just so fantastically relieved that we've managed to overcome the obstacles and get the bugger out! Best, Ian D Edited March 2, 2012 by Ian Dewhirst 2

Ian Dewhirst Posted March 15, 2012 Author Posted March 15, 2012 hi ian, long time no see Tom did some incredible 'Salsoul' mixes as well not sure if thats out on a cd now it was released on cassette tape so its a few years old all the best waggy from donny Yep, I worked extensively with Tom in the early 00's when I re-released the Salsoul catalogue:- https://www.discogs.com/label/Suss%27d+Records Tom actually was really Salsoul's in-house engineer and tape custodian which was handy but, boy, did he protect those bloody tapes. Getting stuff out of Tom was a military excercise in itself at times but it was always inspirational to see someone that took his work so seriously. He really is the genuine article. Ian D 1
