A compilation album packed with the essence of passionate funk and soul.
A compilation of the best songs from the American funk band Ohio Players, characterized by sharp brass sounds and powerful rhythms.
The smooth groove and the strength of the rhythm section are striking, conveying the full dynamics of funk. The lustrous vocals and the sharp horns are exquisitely intertwined, creating a tightly knit ensemble that is appealing. The track selection is centered around their most iconic hits, reaffirming the breadth of their musical range. The sound production is also excellent, vividly retaining the spirit of the golden age of 1970s funk.
