Ohio Players - Orgasm (The Very Best Of The Westbound Years)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Review from allmusic.com
by Greg Prato
The majority of music fans are familiar with the legendary Ohio Players
through such mid- to late-'70s pop-funk hits as "Love Rollercoaster," "Fire,"
and "Fopp." What many don't realize is that the band had been around since
the '60s and released a trilogy of hard funk records from 1972-1973 on the
Westbound label -- Pain, Pleasure, and Ecstasy -- that were easily comparable
to the early-'70s classics by their rival Westbound labelmates, Funkadelic. And
since the albums have been out of print for some time, the European import
Orgasm: The Very Best of the Westbound Years is a solid collection of tracks
from this era. Included is the 1972 novelty hit "Funky Worm," as well as all the
sizzling title tracks from the three albums. A pair of songs from outside the
trilogy is added, "Climax" (one of the collection's best tracks) and a cover of
Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On," both from 1974. A previously unissued
track, "Ain't That Lovin' You (For More Reasons Than One)," is tacked on the
end, making Orgasm an excellent anthology of the Ohio Players' early years,
before they achieved mass mainstream success.
