Friday mp3: The Delfonics

The Delfonics were a pioneering Philadelphia soul group, most popular in the late sixties and early seventies. Sampled by countless modern R&B artists, they earned a second wind after soundtracking Quentin Tarantino's 1997 film Jackie Brown.

The third of five records in six years, their self-titled LP was the first to both feature exclusively self-penned tracks and break the Billboard 100. Main songwriter Thom Bell would go on to produce bands such as The Stylistics.

Trying to swerve the obvious pick, this is from that eponymous LP.
