The Intruders [2023] - The Philadelphia Re-edit Sessions [Simphouse Productions]

The Intruders were possibly one of the underrated groups on Philadelphia International, in the shadows of The O'Jays and Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes. However, arguably, they achieved success well before both those groups with R&B Top 10 hits in the 60s such as "Together", "Cowboys To Girls" and "(Love Is Like)  A Basketball Game".

Probably best known in the 70s for their PIR hit "I'll Always Love My Mama" which they weren't able to top chart-wise but did release some great music in the mid 70s Philly era and Paul Simpson has selected fourteen of them for his re-edit session. 

All tracks are taken from just two albums and a single:

1973 - Save The Children *

1974 - Energy Of Love **
