Manhattans - Greatest Hits: 3.5 stars

 

I originally got this because of their occasional characterization as Philly Soul. But, while they recorded in Philly at Sigma Sound, it was not with Gamble and/or Huff, and so their connection, while more than say, David Bowie recording Young Americans there, is not so close as to require inclusion of this in the collection. I see them more as Quiet Storm, or just plain old R&B, which I don't collect at B plus, particularly for a greatest hits. Compare The Chi-Lites. [De-shelved in 2020]
