Ohio Players - A Little Soul Party '1999

Tracks list

A Little Soul Party, released in 1999 by the U.K.-based Almafame, is a two-disc
set that combines the Ohio Players first album, Observations in Time, with a set
of early recordings originally issued as First Impressions. Prior to becoming a
rock-solid funk band, the Ohio Players were more like a Stax act that made tough
but sensitive Southern soul. The difference between Bad Bargain -- a highlight
here -- and Skin Tight, for instance, is enormous. Southern soul freaks should
enjoy this, while fans of the Ohio Players peak 70s hits might not. Regardless,
this material deserves to be in circulation.
