The Ohio Players - Graduation (1984)

Remastered reissue of long lost album for the funk/ soul legends.
Eight tracks including, 'Fast Track', 'Follow Me' and'Don't You Know I
Care'. An utterly underrated mid 80's venture for the Players
"Garduation" stars strong with two high-energy grooves in
"Fast Track" and "Follow Me",countered only by the B-side's
"All Night",making way for the albums closing bluesy rock 'n roll
of "So Glad I Got My R&B",the most orginal and clever tune the
Ohio Players ever came up with.

DJ-JFK's One That Got Away!

A great little album of jazz funk and the only record we’ve ever seen by this group! The 3 Pieces may not have lasted long in the record business, but this rare album from 1975 has made them legends on the rare groove scene for years. The record was cut during the height of the jazz funk years at Fantasy Records and it features Donald Byrd handling the production chores, in a similar manner to the style that he used with the more famous Blackbyrds, who were also recording for Fantasy the time. The record features loads of electric piano and ARP, plus some tight and smooth guitar, and a nice rolling groove that is very catchy. A number of tracks have vocals in kind of a subdued soul mode and tracks include the groove classics “Backed Up Against The Wall”, “Shortnin’ Bread”, “Concrete Jungle”, and “Vibes Of Truth”. And believe it or not, there aren’t any vibes on the album!
