Leon Huff inspects Philadelphia International Records in the aftermath of a fire, in Philadelphia, Tuesday, Feb. 23, 2010. Officials say a two-alarm fire that is considered 'suspicious' destroyed about 40 percent of the memorabilia but spared the recording studio that gave birth to the 'Sound of Philadelphia.' Philadelphia International Records produced many R&B classics of the 1960s and 1970s. Michael Jackson, Patti LaBelle and Teddy Pendergrass are among the musical luminaries to have recorded there with producing team Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff.
