One of the mightiest funk ensembles to ever emerge from the Midwest,
the Ohio Players
started out as a blues band called
the Ohio Untouchables
in 1959, and over the course of a decade they evolved into a furiously tight and hard-hitting group who would cut some of the wildest dance hits of the '70s.
The Ohio Players
were at the peak of their popularity, enjoying the success of albums like
Skin Tight
,
Fire
Honey
, and
Contradiction
, when they took the stage for this 1977 concert, the only live document from the band's greatest era. While this release includes the love ballads "Alone" and "I Want to Be Free," the bulk of
Live 1977
is devoted to tough, muscular funk workouts, with the band living up to their reputation as one of the great live acts of the day on tunes like "Love Rollercoaster," "Sweet Sticky Thing," "Skin Tight/Fopp," and an epic 30-minute version of "Fire." ~ Mark Deming
