Vincent Montana, Jr., legendary Producer, Arranger, Composer and Creator of The Salsoul Orchestra, and his Philly Sound Works label are back with this extraordinary new production. “That’s What Love Does” is a dedication to Montana’s love of Philly Soul and is without a doubt a classic from the 21st Century!
The original version with its laid-back feel is a genuinely soulful piece complete with lush strings, cool vibes and all the added touches and quality expected of a Montana production. To bring it all together, Montana calls on veteran performer William ‘Smoke’ Howard, formerly of ‘The Ebonys’ to complement the classic feel of the project with his timeless powerhouse vocals. Right at home, Smoke effortlessly captures and projects the very heart and soul of the song and dynamically delivers the message ‘Love Always Finds A Way’…and may even raise a goose-bump or two!
While keeping the integrity of the original song, Louis Benedetti gives the original his treatment on the Club Vox bringing The Philly Sound to a whole new level by speeding it up a notch, adding an infectious groove driven bass line, funky guitars and spotlighting a tight and precise Vibe solo from Montana. The Classic Dub follows in the footsteps of the Vocal Remix and the Reprise Dub utilizes some of the funkiest elements of the Original Mix. Bonus tracks include 3 previously unreleased versions!

Soulful meaningful dancefloor house does not come better than this.
author: Mark Moore, Blues & Soul
The Salsoul Orchestra's head honcho releases this preview to the Revival Project Album. The Original is stunning true Philadelphia soul with its lounge vibe. The Club Vocal from Louis Benedetti comprises a nice Latin rhythm, guitar riff, sumptuous strings and lovely chimes - it's faultless. Louis' Classic Dub is even more upbeat, a real musical treat with Montana on Vibraharp and with the Reprise Dub and Radio Edit included on the package too, every base is covered. A classic in the making. 5/5

This is a serious release!

If you are a fan of the Montana sound like I am you will adore this new tune. It is like hearing a tune and trying to work out how you missed it when it first came out - only to discover that it is actually brand spanking new! A Mr. Montana in fantastic form with the great soulful vocals of William Howard, this is highly recommended indeed!

A must for garage fans and modern DJs
author: Yogi Haughton, DJ Magazine
The disco/boogie legend who produced, wrote and arranged material for top disco stable Salsoul back in the day is back on form with his Philly Sound Works label. Of course the vibes are the prominent instrument, although there is a strong disco/garage scent in the air on the Club Vocal. The Original and Classic Dub mixes walk a thin line between house and soul, making this a must for garage fans and modern DJs. Strong vocals are present too. 4/5
