Great harmonies by this group. I likes a lot their 1975 United Artists single that I keep from my teens "Since I Found My Baby" b/w "I Love Music" [[it's not a cover of The O'Jays one). Anyway and...
IMHO, "The Soulful Strings Plays Gamble & Huff" is a good one. Symphonyc Chi-Sound covering symphonic Philly Sound, the strings conducted by Carl Davis at their best, mellow instrumental takes of...
The Blue Notes fronted by Harold Melvin have had dozens of replacements [[I don't knows about the original quintet fronted by Bernie Williams)

"Shine On Silver Moon" by them as a duo and The Reflection's cover of "Three Steps From True Love" by Billy solo, two all time favorites of mine.

Sounds totally "Philly" and so well orchestrated! These are The O'Jays I allways have loved!
According to all I have the opportunity to read about this question, I think there have been a great mutual respect and admiration betwen Gordy and G & H and all the people involved on both "hits...
Appart from "Something To Believe In" [[1979) and "Never Say Can't You Survive" [[1977) [[my two absolute favorites), "Got To Find Away" contains some gems as "Mother's Son" that I need to hear from my...
No track lists and no titles of the albums... I think betwen 1970 and 1974 should includes "Curtis", "Live", "Roots", "Got To Find Away", "Superfly"... and not sure what others.
Anyway, having...

I have been almost centered on 70's exclusively. The 70's music is the music of my teens but appart from emotional considerations, I think that the 70's were rich in fusion of styles and also, if...

I'm totally agree with "post - Smokey Robinson's MIRACLES". Since my teens, when I purchased "Love Crazy" I can't spend more than a month without re-heard this MONUMENTAL masterpiece of harmony vocal...
I don't knows really why I can have lost totally my interest in the music by a vocal group who were one of my absolute not only group or soul group but absolute favorite artists from "Lonely Drifter"...
"Bad Bad Symba" - O'Donell Levy [[one of my all-time jazz-fusion favorite)
The whole album "Survival" by The O'Jays that my brother ripped for me from my vynil copy. FANTASTIC "HOW TIME FLYES"!!!
