If it's from Philly and it's good... then Bobby Eli is somehow involved. Thanks Bobby for all the wonderful music.

Hey Bobby,
It was great seeing you again after all these years. I love getting together with the crew every once in a while. Give me a call when you get some free time so I can let you know what we're doing at Key of "E" Entertainment. You did do some great music !

Blue Magic was as good a soul band as there was in the early seventies. Bobbi was the MAGIC of the Blue!!! that was a good one!! Without his studio work, a lot of the music from that generation wouldn't exist. Thank you Bobby

I can't believe that I actually found the composer of Side Show & 3-Ring Circus. I always reckon, there's 3 songs that sum up Life in a nut shell, it's these two & 'There's No Me Without You' from Manhattans and it turns out you were involved on all 3 songs. Honoured!!!!
