Biography

The O'Jays were one of the most popular and successful bands of the Philadelphia Soul genre in the 70s. Thanks to top songwriting and production team Gamble & Huff, they had a string of memorable hit singles, and multiple gold and platinum albums.

First forming in 1958 as the Triumphs, it took a long time for the band renamed The O'Jays to attain success. In the mid-60s they had a number of minor… Read more in Amazon's O'Jays Store

4.0 out of 5 stars Why don't they have a complet box set?, August 6, 2005
By 
This review is from: Ultimate O'Jays (Audio CD)
This CD is terrific. Every song on here is a classic. I only gave it 4 stars because it's missing too many hits. Why doesn't one of the most original groups to come out of the 70's have an extensive box set? Amazon has one listed that is from England I think, but it is missing way to many songs. And why haven't their albums been remastered and rereleased the way that they did Earth, Wind & Fire albums? Weren't The O'Jays just as good and deserving? I realize these guys have about 10 different greatest hits and were on more than 1 label, but come on, it's 2005 and we, the fans of The O'Jays, demand a complete box set.

5.0 out of 5 stars Every song a classic, October 13, 2002

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Ultimate O'Jays (Audio CD)
This CD is an outstanding compilation of most of the O'Jays greatest hits. Digitally remastered, it brings back feelings of admiration for the soulful and melodic Philadelphia style that was the calling card of the group. Fronted by the resounding lead vocals of Eddie Levert and backed up instrumentally by MFSB, the group was in the forefront of R&B in the 70's and 80's. This collection of tunes is a fantastic representation of the great brand of both funky music and love ballads of that era.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous!, August 7, 2003
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ultimate O'Jays (Audio CD)
I started listening to the O'Jays when I was in high school. My stepfather was a big fan. I loved the sound of MFSB and the songs always had a message. My stepfather liked the gospel flavor. This is one of the best "greatest hits" CD's I've found. There is no "filler" song that wasn't a hit. And the messages still hold true today. I loaned it to my stepfather and now he won't return it! "Love Train" is one of my very favorite songs. I highly recommend this CD to all O'Jays fans.
