Description

Artist : Ohio Players Album : Skin Tight (1974). Авторы текста и музыки. James "Diamond" Williams, Marvin "Merv" Pierce, Leroy Bonner, Ralph Pee Wee Middlebrooks, Clarence Satchell, Marshall Jones.

Skin Tight was a major turning point for the Ohio Players, who had enjoyed several hits on black radio (including "Pain," "Funky Worm," "Varee Is Love," and "I Wanna Hear From You") but hadn't been huge. Switching from Westbound to Mercury, the Dayton funksters became exactly that - huge - and went from enjoying a cult following to being one of the most celebrated funk bands of the 1970s

Skin Tight signified a turning point in the group's career towards a more jazzy and polished funk sound. The album began the Players' dominant platinum selling period, and would bring them a much bigger audience. In fact, this release would outsell all of their previous LPs combined. The band produced and recorded the album in Chicago, with Barry Mraz as recording engineer. The final mix was mastered by Lee Hulko.

Skin Tight,’ meanwhile, cruised into the top 40 in its second week and spent two weeks at its No. 13 peak in October. Before the end of the year, the Ohio Players’ hot streak truly burst into flames, as the single ‘Fire’ hit the pop and soul charts on its way to No. 1 on both. By the summer of 1976, they’d amassed a weighty five soul chart-toppers in little more than three years. The Skin Tight album of 1974, self-produced and recorded in Chicago, was also the one that began the group’s run of platinum-selling long players
