Lead singer Eddie Levert's churchy exhortations come across as heartfelt.

The O'Jays were suggested to Neptune Records owners/Philadelphia-based songwriting/production duo Gamble and Huff by the Intruders, who'd scored a million-selling number one R&B/number six pop hit with "Cowboys and Girls." Gamble and Huff weren't familiar with the O'Jays' sides for Imperial ("Lonely Drifter" and the George Kerr-produced Top Ten R&B Bell Records single "I'll Be Sweeter Tomorrow [Than I Was Today]"). They were impressed with them when they saw a concert in the group's native state of Ohio draw over 500 people, most of whom were white. This showed the duo that the group had huge "crossover" potential. The O'Jays' Neptune singles include the 1969 Top 15 R&B single "One Night Affair" (a 1972 number six R&B smash for Jerry Butler), "Deeper (In Love With You)," number 21 R&B, spring 1970, and "Looky Looky (Look at Me Girl)," which hit number 17 R&B, summer 1970.

Neptune was distributed by Chicago-based Chess Records, and when owner Leonard Chess died, Neptune folded. A couple of years later, Gamble and Huff contacted the O'Jays in their hometown of Cleveland and asked if they wanted to sign with the new label Philadelphia International Records to be distributed by CBS Records. Still smarting from the Neptune folding and not being able to see their gold- and platinum-laced future, group members Walter Williams and William Powell were skeptical. At the same time, Eddie Levert's wife had just given birth to twins Sean and Gerald (who would later be two thirds of the group Levert). Eddie reminded his groupmates that Gamble Huff were the only ones calling about a record deal and finally convinced them to fly to Philadelphia to meet with the producers. Another group member, Bobby Massey, declined in favor of a writing-producing career. Written and produced by Gamble and Huff, the million-selling "Love Train" made two stops, parking at the number one R&B spot for four weeks and going to number one pop in early 1973.

It was on the trio's gold LP Backstabbers, which also listed the number two R&B single "Time to Get Down," the Top 13 R&B hit "992 Arguments," and the million-selling number one R&B, number three pop single "Backstabbers." The rarely seen 1972 pre-MTV video clip of "Love Train" is both charming and heartwarming in its simplicity and touching because its features group member William Powell, who died of cancer on May 26, 1977. PIR labelmate Bunny Sigler's slow churchy cover of "Love Train" went to number 28 R&B during summer 1974. Appears On Various Artists: Love Train: The Sound of Philadelphia | PopMatters iTunes That music is at the center of the long-overdue Love Train: The Sound of Philadelphia. A four-disc, 71-track set, it features no fewer that 26 #1 R&B hits and 27 Top Ten pop hits.

Though it spans from Gamble, Huff, and Bell’s early careers to Philadelphia International’s distribution deal with EMI in 1984, its main focus is on the halcyon years 1971-1976. And the collection, overseen by Gamble and Huff themselves, does it right. Everything’s chronological, from start to finish. No incongruous, “themed” discs. No superfluous demos and live tracks. Just the hits, and there were plenty of them. Philadelphia International’s two premier acts, the O’Jays and Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes, are as well-represented as one might expect, with over a quarter of the 71 tracks. With few exceptions, Love Train is a de facto greatest hits for both. If you don’t already have the O’Jays and Blue Notes stuff, you’re already behind the ball. But here’s your chance to make things right, because, aside from the obvious classics, the best thing about Love Train is all the relatively underappreciated, sometimes hidden, gems. Like many soul artists of the time, Philadelphia International’s roster were not “album acts”, the O’Jays being the exception.

What you’re getting is as complete a picture of the Philly Soul sound as anyone could hope for. And it’s remarkable how, once it was established, that sound remained consistent and unmistakable for over 15 years. Like Motown and Stax, Philadelphia International had its own house band, in this case MFSB, for Mother Father Sister Brother. Anchored by the innovative, hi-hat-heavy drumming of Earl Young and the increasingly funky basslines of Norman Harris, MFSB provide the rock-steady groove on the uptempo numbers and the bedroom atmosphere on the ballads. On top of this bedrock Gamble, Huff, and Bell would lay their trademark arrangements. The Philly sound was slick, pristine, and effortless, yet warm and never mechanical. The complex vocal harmonies were heavily influenced by doo-wop, and the ambitious brass and string charts, performed by members of the Philadelphia Symphony, were swathed in reverb. Even from their pre-Philadelphia International hits with the Delfonics, the sound was intact.

It’s there on the swaying, floaty “La La Means I Love You”, the soaring chorus of “Ready or Not Here I Come”, and the rich harmonies of “Didn’t I (Blow Your Mind This Time)”, the first genuine Philly Soul classic. Gamble, Huff, and Bell’s songs are so intricate yet so natural they sound like they’re made of diamonds, and often take on a downright ethereal quality. By 1972 the funky but no less smooth mid-to uptempo grooves begin to flow with the O’Jays’ immortal “Back Stabbers” and Johnny Williams’ “Slow Motion”. Melvin & Blue Notes’ “Miss You” and “If You Don’t Know Me By Now” and Billy Paul’s “Me and Mrs. Jones” are also here. And that’s just Disc One. Disc Two finds Philadelphia International’s momentum growing into a confident, well-honed, redoubtable hitmaking juggernaut. As far as the O’Jays, “Love Train” still hasn’t lost its melancholy groove or heartfelt optimism, and “For the Love of Money” still boasts the Meanest Bassline Recorded.

Their “Time to Get Down” Melvin & the Blue Notes’ “The Love I Lost” begin to clear soul’s eventual path to modern dance music. Crucial to this development was the subtle yet effective employment of Latin percussion instruments. The Intruders’ charming “I’ll Always Love My Mama” and William DeVaughn’s sublimely smooth “Be Thankful For What You’ve Got”, later covered to great effect by Massive Attack, are among the many sleepers you’ll be glad you discovered. And so it continues into the mid-‘70s. The ballads, as ever, sparkle and seduce. Philly Soul isn’t known for its girl groups, but regulars the Three Degrees deliver one of Love Train‘s defining tracks. The swooning strings, steady congas, and ecstatic cooing all combine to serve a gorgeous melody that seems to freeze time. Philly Soul’s influence on pop, hip-hop, and R&B is readily acknowledged, but here you sense it going far beyond that. It’s hard to imagine pop neo-classicists like Saint Etienne and Camera Obscura existing without a song and arrangement like “When Will I See You Again” to inspire them.

Likewise, you can hear more than a little of the “Manchester sound” of Happy Mondays, the Charlatans, and Doves in dance numbers like MFSB’s “Love Is the Message” and People’s Choice’s “Do It Any Way You Wanna”. The O’Jays’ “Give the People What They Want” is about as heavy on the funk as Philly or anyone else got, while Melvin & the Blue Notes offer up some prime pre-disco with “Wake Up Everybody” and “Don’t Leave Me This Way”. The latter was a hit for Thelma Houston on, ironically enough, Motown, as well as for the Communards in the ‘80s. Some critics bump Philly Soul down a notch from Motown and Stax, claiming its well-polished sound was also saccharine and dispassionate. It’s true that, as the ‘70s turn into the ‘80s on Disc Four, the disco loses substance while the ballads gain even more studio sheen. But that doesn’t stop the Manhattans’ “Kiss and Say Goodbye” from being top-notch bedroom music, complete with Isaac Hayes/Barry White-style monologue.

Nor does it prevent McFadden & Whitehead’s “Ain’t No Stoppin’ Us Now” from being a floor-stomper that’s almost on par with Chic’s “Good Times”. Even Denice Williams’ “It’s Gonna Take a Miracle”, from 1982, provides one last breath of that still-fresh, Doo Wop-inspired sound. Gamble, Huff, Bell, and their stable of musicians, arrangers, and engineers can’t be blamed for disco and “urban contemporary” blandness any more than Miles Davis’ pioneering electric work can be blamed for smooth jazz. They’re just unfortunate but inevitable side-effects. Legacy has done a good job of licensing key tracks from acts that did not record for Philadelphia International but were a part of the Philly sound. Chief among those are Bell-produced acts the Spinners, with the transcendent “I’ll Be Around” among a handful of their hits here, and the Stylistics. Also included are tracks from already-established legends who came to Philly for a new lease on musical life.

Among these are the title track to Dusty Springfield’s Dusty in Memphis follow-up, A Brand New Me, Wilson Pickett’s “Don’t Let the Green Grass Fool You”, and Lou Rawls’ disco-era smash “You’ll Never Find Another Love Like Mine”. The accompanying 64-page booklet features essays and interviews from critics, historians, and some of the principals of the time. A little too much effort is made to paint Philadelphia International as a force of social commentary. It’s true that “For the Love of Money” and Melvin & the Blue Notes’ “Wake Up Everybody” reveal Gamble and Huff’s social consciousness. But their most overtly political statement, the O’Jays’ “Ship Ahoy”, is omitted, and “Love Is the Message” best sums up the Philadelphia International ethos. And really, as presented by this music, that’s as deep and powerful a message as any. Sadly, the remastering here tries to apply the 21st Century technique of cranking the levels and squashing out the dynamic range of the music, giving the sound of Love Train an ill-fitting harsh edge. But even that can’t keep the warmth and spirit of this music down.

You could argue that, as Philadelphia International faded in the 1980s and Gamble and Huff eventually retired later that decade, the original golden age of soul music died. But what an age it was, and a big piece of it can be found in this indispensable collection.

He has been a music fanatic at least since he and a couple friends put together The Rock Group Dictionary in third grade (although he now admits that giving Pat Benatar the title of "first good female rocker" was probably a mistake).

This single was released in December 1975 and hit number one on the UK Singles Chart on February 21, 1976. It repeated the feat on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 on March 13, 1976, remaining in the top spot for three weeks and one week on Cash Box . On April 10 of the same year, it topped the RPM National Top Singles Chart in Canada . New drummer Gerry Polci and bassist Don Ciccone shared lead vocals with long-time frontman Frankie Valli . Disco Inferno A 1976 song by The Trammps from the album of the same name .

It became a success in 1978 after being included on the soundtrack to the 1977 film Saturday Night Fever . The title alludes to the 1974 film The Towering Inferno , and the "Burn, baby, burn" chorus references a saying attributed to activist Bill Epton . It was also notably covered by Cyndi Lauper on the A Night at the Roxbury soundtrack and Tina Turner on the What's Love Got To Do With It? soundtrack. You To Me Are Everything The debut single by The Real Thing . Written by Ken Gold and Michael Denne, "You to Me Are Everything" was The Real Thing's sole number-one single in the UK, spending three weeks at the top in July 1976. A remixed version of the song returned to the chart in March 1986 reaching number five. The song was a minor hit in the U.S. where it peaked at number 64 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and number 28 on the Billboard R&B chart. Part of the reason for its lack of success in the U.S. was the flood of cover versions of the song released at the same time.

American groups Broadway and Revelation both released versions of the song the same week, and at one point all three versions of the song appeared on Billboard Hot 100 and R&B charts. With radio and the public unable to agree on a single popular version, the three singles effectively prevented each other from becoming a hit. Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel A disco song written by Freddie Perren and Keni St. Lewis. It was recorded by the New England band Tavares in 1976. The song was released as a single from the album Sky High! and was split into two parts. The first part was 3 minutes and 28 seconds in length, while the second part was 3 minutes and 10 seconds. The total length is over 6 minutes. "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel" reached #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1976. The song did even better in the UK where it made the top 10 peaking at #4. Love Train A hit single by the O'Jays , written by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff .

Released in 1973, it reached number one on both the R&B Singles and the Billboard Hot 100 chartsand was certified gold by the RIAA . It was The O'Jays' first and only number-one record on the U.S. pop chart. The song's lyrics of unity mention a number of countries, including England , Russia , China , Egypt and Israel , as well as the continent of Africa . Besides its release as a single , "Love Train" was the last song on The O'Jays' album Back Stabbers and was covered by The Supremes before the departure of Jean Terrell, their early 70's lead singer. Love Really Hurts Billy Ocean is a Trinidad -born English Grammy Award winning popular music performer who had a string of rhythm and blues international pop hits in the 1970s and 1980s. He was the main British -based R&B singer / songwriter of the 1980s.After scoring his first four UK top 20 successes, seven years passed before he accumulated a series of transatlantic successes, including three U.S. number ones .

Sweet Soul Music A soul song, first released by Arthur Conley in 1967. Written by Conley and Otis Redding , it is based on the Sam Cooke song "Yeah Man" from his posthumous album Shake . It reached the number two spot on both the Billboard Hot 100 and the Billboard R&B chart , and #7 on the UK Singles Chart . Dancing On The Ceiling Written by Mike Frenchik, Lionel Richie and Carlos Rios and performed by Richie on his 1986 album Dancing on the Ceiling . In the song Richie sings about a feeling, which is about a kind of joy and hence the title of Dancing on the Ceiling. The song reached the top spot on the Norwegian charts. Easy A 1977 hit single written by Commodores lead singer Lionel Richie , the song, a slow ballad with country and western roots, expresses a man's feelings as he ends a relationship.

Rather than being depressed about the break-up, he states that he is instead "easy like Sunday morning." Richie wrote "Easy" with the intention of it becoming another crossover hit for the group, given the success of a previous single, " Just to Be Close to You ", which spent 2 weeks at #1 on the Billboard R&B chart and peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 pop charts in 1976. Released in March 1977, "Easy" reached #1 on the Billboard R&B chart , and #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 .The success of "Easy" paved the way for similar Richie-composed hit ballads such as " Three Times a Lady ", and " Still ", and also for Richie's later solo hits. My Girl A 1964 song recorded by The Temptations for the Gordy ( Motown ) label which became a number one hit in 1965 . Written and produced by The Miracles members Smokey Robinson and Ronald White , the song became the Temptations' first U.S. number-one single, and is today their signature song.

Robinson's inspiration for writing this song was his wife, Miracles member Claudette Rogers Robinson . The song was featured on the Temptations album The Temptations Sing Smokey . You're The First, The Last, My Everything A popular song recorded by Barry White . Written by White, Tony Sepe and Peter Radcliffe and produced by White, "You're the First, The Last, My Everything" was White's fourth top ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, reaching #2; it spent a week at #1 on the Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart.The early disco class made it to number two on the disco/dance charts.In the UK it fared even better, spending two weeks at the top in December 1974. It appeared on White's 1974 album Can't Get Enough . Radcliffe originally wrote "You're the First, The Last, My Everything" as a country song with the title "You're My First, You're My Last, My In-Between", which went unrecorded for 21 years. White recorded it as a disco song, keeping most of the structure and two-thirds of the title, but he rewrote the lyrics .

It's Not Unusual Written by Les Reed and Gordon Mills , first recorded by a then-unknown Tom Jones after having first been offered to Sandie Shaw . Jones recorded what was intended to be a demo for Shaw, but when she heard it she was so impressed with Jones' delivery that she declined the song and recommended that Jones release it himself. The record was the second Decca single Jones released, reaching number one in the UK charts in 1965. It was also the first hit for Jones in the US , peaking at #10 in May of that year. The single was released in the US on the Parrot label and also reached #3 on Billboard 's easy listening chart . Jones used this song as the theme for his late 1960s-early 1970s musical variety series This Is Tom Jones. It has since become Jones' musical signature . Blame It On The Boogie A disco song , originally released in 1978 both by English singer-songwriter Mick Jackson as well as (in its most famous version) by The Jacksons (no connection), and was later also covered by numerous other artists .

Although Mick Jackson recorded the song in 1977 "Blame It on the Boogie" was written in hopes of being shopped to Stevie Wonder . The Mick Jackson track was showcased in 1978 at Midem where according to Mick Jackson: "The Jackson's manager [Peter Kerstin] heard the track being played...and took a tape recording of it...back to the States [where] The Jackson's quickly recorded a version so it would be out before mine." In fact the Mick Jackson recording was released by Atlantic Records in the US in August of 1978. I Want You Back Released in 1969 and in early 1970 became a number-one hit single recorded by The Jackson 5 for the Motown label. The song, along with a b-side cover of Smokey Robinson & the Miracles ' " Who's Lovin' You ", was the only single from the first Jackson 5 album, Diana Ross Presents the Jackson 5 . It went to number one on the soul singles chart for four weeks and held the number-one position on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart for the week ending January 31, 1970.

Saturday Night At The Movies The Drifters are a long-lived American doo wop / R&B vocal group with a peak in popularity from 1953 to 1962, though several splinter Drifters continue to perform today. They were originally formed to serve as Clyde McPhatter 's (of Billy Ward & the Dominoes ) backing group in 1953. Rolling Stone magazine states that the Drifters were the least stable of the vocal groups due to being low-paid hired musicians of their management.The Treadwell Drifters website states that there have been 60 vocalists in the history of the Treadwell Drifters line.Several splinter groups by former Drifters members add to the count. Only one splinter Drifters group features a classic Drifters member, Charlie Thomas' Drifters. Celebration Released in 1980 by Kool & the Gang from their album Celebrate! . It reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on February 7, 1981 and held that position until February 20, 1981.

Late in 1980, the song had also reached number one on both the Billboard Dance and R&B charts. The song dominated the radio for nearly the entire year, and is still heard today at weddings and parties. The The O'Jays Picture Pages Love Train Background: Originally a quintet, American soul and R&B singing group the O'Jays, now consisting of Eddie Levert, Walter Williams and Eric Grant (joined the group in 1997), have been active since 1958. The group achieved the zenith of their fame with Philadelphia International, a label founded by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff.

During their stint with the label from 1972 to 1987, the O'Jays scored a series of successful albums, including “Back Stabbers” (1972), “Ship Ahoy” (1973), “Survival” (1975), “Family Reunion” (1975), “Message in the Music” (1976), “Travelin' at the Speed of Thought” (1977), “So Full of Love” (1978) and “Identify Yourself” (1979). They also released the No.1 R&B hit singles “Back Stabbers,” “Love Train,” “I Love Music,” “Livin' for the Weekend,” “Message in Our Music,” “Darlin' Darlin' Baby (Sweet, Tender, Love),” “Use Ta Be My Girl” and “Lovin' You.” “Love Train” peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the group's first and only No.1 record on the chart.

After leaving Philadelphia International, the O'Jays recorded with various labels like EMI, MCA, Volcano and Sanctuary, but none of the albums enjoyed the same level of success as the ones released with Philadelphia International. Canton Childhood and Family: The story of The O'Jays began in 1958 in Canton, Ohio, where all five original members, Eddie Levert (born June 16, 1942), Walter Williams (born August 25, 1942), William Powell (born January 20, 1942), Bill Isles and Bobby Massey attended McKinley High School. They decided to form a singing group after watching a performance by Frankie Lymon & the Teenagers. First calling themselves The Triumphs, they changed their name to The Mascots in 1960 before eventually adopting the name The O'Jays in 1963. They got the name from their manager's last name, Eddie O'Jay. After the departure of Isles in 1965, the group became a quartet, but Massey then quit in the early 1970s.

By 1977, the group had lost one more member when William Powell died of cancer on May 26, 1977. He was replaced by a former member of Little Anthony & the Imperials, Sammy Strain (born December 9, 1941). In 1992, Strain left the group and returned to the Imperials. The group then recruited Nathaniel Best and when Best left, he was replaced by Eric Grant. Back Stabbers Career: As The Mascots, the group released their debut single “Miracles” in 1961 under the Cincinnati based King label. The song achieved average success in the Cleveland area and brought them a fan in the important Cleveland DJ Eddie O'Jay. In a tribute to Eddie O'Jay, who gave them some airplay and career advice, the group took the name “The O'Jays.” Under their new name, The O'Jays signed with Imperial and released “Lonely Drifter” in 1963, which peaked at No. 93 on the Billboard Hot 100. The follow up single “Stand Tall” (1964), only charted at No.

131 on the Billboard Hot 100 while “My Dearest Beloved,” “I'll Never Stop Loving You,” “You're on Top” and “Girl Machine” were all unsuccessful on any charts. Isles left the group in 1965. Later that same year, the foursome launched their debut album “Comin' Through.” The O'Jays made their return to the Billboard Hot 100 with a cover of Benny Spellman's “Lipstick Traces (On a Cigarette)” (1965), which peaked at No. 48 on the chart. The single also made the Top 30 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart (#28) and was included in their first album. The group had their next charting singles with “I've Cried My Last Tear” and “Let It All Out” (both also 1965), which peaked at No. 94 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 29 on the U.S. R&B charts, respectively. In 1966, they released the R&B hit single “Stand in for Love,” which went to No.

12 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The song also made it into the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 95. In 1967, the O'Jays released the album “Soul Sounds” on the Minit label. They then signed with the New York based Bell Records that same year. Shortly after, the group scored their first Top 10 R&B hit with “I'll Be Sweeter Tomorrow (Than I Was Today)” (1967), which peaked at No. 8 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. The song also rose to No. 66 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was followed by the singles “Look Over Your Shoulder” (#89 US Hot 100; #27 US R&B) and “The Choice” (#94 US Hot 100; #41 US R&B) in 1968. After releasing the album “Back on Top” (1968), the group parted ways with Bell and signed with the newly established Neptune Records, which was founded by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff in 1969.

The group's first release for the label, “The O'Jays in Philadelphia” (1969), went to No. 156 on the Billboard 200 and No. 37 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. They also recorded a string of R&B hit singles for Neptune, including “One Night Affair” (#15), “Branded Bad” (#41), “Deeper (In Love with You)” (#21) and “Looky Looky (Look at Me Girl)” (#17) before the label folded in 1971. It was around this same time that Massey left the group. The last three of the group went on to record with Trip label and released the album “Super Bad” in 1971. The O'Jays' career gained momentum when the group signed with Philadelphia International, which was owned by Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff. Their label debut, “Back Stabbers” (1972), peaked at No. 3 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and No. 10 on the Billboard 200.

It sold over 500,000 copies within a year of release and gave the group their first gold record. The title track was certified gold by RIAA on September 1, 1972, and went to the top of the Hot Soul Singles chart on September 9, 1972. It also peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 14 on the U.K. Singles Chart. The single “Love Train” (1973), written and produced by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and the Hot Soul Singles chart. It also achieved gold status in the U.S. The album spawned the singles “992 Arguments” (1972, #13 US R&B and #57 US Hot 100) and “Time to Get Down” (1973, #2 US R&B and #33 US Hot 100). After the success of “Black Stabbers,” the O'Jays became stars.

The group's second release for Philadelphia International, “Ship Enjoy” (1973), was a critical and commercial success. It peaked at No. 1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and No. 11 on the Billboard 200 and was eventually certified platinum by RIAA. The album generated two hit singles with “Put Your Hands Together” (#2 US R&B; #10 US Hot 100) and “For the Love of Money” (#3 US R&B; #9 US Hot 100). In 1975, the O'Jays released “Survival,” which achieved the same charting position as “Ship Enjoy” on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and the Billboard 200. The album, however, only went gold. It yielded two hit singles with “Give the People What They Want” (#1 R&B, #45 US Pop) and “Let Me Make Love to You” (#10 US R&B, #75 US Pop). Still in 1975, they released “Family Reunion,” which peaked at No. 1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and No.

7 on the Billboard 200. Thanks to “I Love Music” and “Livin' for the Weekend,” both of which topped the R&B singles chart, the album eventually achieved platinum status. Around the same time, William Powell was diagnosed with cancer. He kept recording with the group for a time, but was unable to join them in concerts. He passed away in 1977. The gold album “Message in the Music” (1976) became the group's last release with Powell. It rose to No. 3 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and No. 7 on the Billboard 200 and spawned the hit singles “Message in Our Music” (#1 US R&B, #49 US Pop) and “Darlin' Darlin' Baby (Sweet, Tender, Love)” (#1 US R&B, #72 US Pop, UK #24). With new member Sammy Strain, the O'Jays released the album “Travelin' at the Speed of Thought” in May 1977. It peaked at No. 6 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and No. 27 on the Billboard 200.

The album's only single, “Work on Me,” peaked at No. 7 on the Hot Soul Singles chart. The album was certified gold by RIAA. It was followed by “So Full of Love” in 1978, which rose to No.1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and No. 6 on the Billboard 200 and went platinum. It produced the hit “Use Ta Be My Girl” and the next single, “Brandy (I Really Miss You),” peaked at No. 21 on the U.S. R&B chart. The group closed out the decade with the release of “Identify Yourself” (1979), which peaked at No. 3 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and No. 16 on the Billboard 200. The album went platinum and contained the R&B hit singles “Sing a Happy Song” (#7) and “Forever Mine” (#4).

The O'Jays went on to produce several albums with PIR, including “The Year 2000” (1980; #36 US, #6 R&B), “My Favorite Person” (1982; #49 US, #7 R&B), “When Will I See You Again” (1983; #142 US, #19 R&B), “Love and More” (1984; #35 R&B), “Love Fever” (1985; #124, #20 R&B) and “Let Me Touch You” (1987; #66 US, #3 R&B), before leaving the label and signing with EMI America. Some of their singles during the 1980s included “Girl, Don't Let It Get You Down” (#3 US R&B), “Let Me Touch You” (#5) and “Lovin' You” (#1 R&B), their first No. 1 single since 1978. “Lovin' You” also marked the group's last No.1 hit to be written and produced by Gamble and Huff.

The O'Jays recorded three studio albums with EMI: “Serious” (1989), “Emotionally Yours” (1991) and “Heartbreaker” (1993). All three albums were Top 10 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, with the second being the highest charting (#2) and also going gold. The group also produced several R&B hit singles for the label, including “Have You Had Your Love Today” (1989, #1), “Out of My Mind” (1989, #11), “Serious Hold on Me” (1989, #9), “Don't Let Me Down” (1990, #2), “Emotionally Yours” (1991, #5) and “Keep on Lovin' Me” (1991, #4). In 1997, now with Eric Grant, the O'Jays launched “Love You to Tears” on Volcano Records. It peaked at No. 14 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and No. 75 on the Billboard 200.

The singles “What's Stopping You” and “Baby You Know” (both 1997) peaked at No. 21 and No. 34 on the R&B charts, respectively. In 2001, the group released the album “For the Love...” on MCA Records. It went to No. 53 on the Billboard 200 and No. 11 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. The album spawned one single, “Let's Ride,” which peaked at No. 63 on the R&B chart. In 2004, the O'Jays released “Together We Are One” (#36 R&B) on Philadelphia International and “Imagination” (#19 R&B) on Sanctuary. The only single released that year, “Make Up,” peaked at No. 74 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. In 2008, the group released the compilation album “Playlist: The Very Best of the O'Jays” on Playlist Records. A new holiday album, “Christmas with the O'Jays” was released by Saguaro Road Records in 2010.
