Not to be confused with the peoples Choice group from Detroit. Peoples Choice were formed by Frank Brunson in Philadelphia during the early 70's, they evolved from The Fashions who had 3 45,s released. Signing to Philadelphia International Records (PIR), they worked with writer / producer Leon Huff (without Kenny Gamble on this occasion) on 'Do It Any Way You Wanna' (UK Top 40,1975), a Philadelphia International dance classic. Further Philadelphia International albums were 'We Got Rhythm' (1976) and 'Turn Me Loose' (1978), including 'Jam Jam Jam' (UK Top 40). In total they recorded 6 albums on PIR,TSOP,Casablanca,TPC, & Mercury. Shortly afterwards The group separated and disbanded.I have all their albums so if anyone wants any individual one contact me and i,ll gladly post up for you. This great 2 x CD gathers all their big hits and then some!
