    An incredibly high quality live performance. No pitch correctors or backing tracks fed into their earpieces; this is the real deal. Almost no group can reach this standard today live. Philadelphia International Records which was Gamble & Huff produced a staggering number of hits. There is a Nederlands TV documentary on them, that is amazing. Few Americans know how great Gamble & Huff were, and how many groups they wrote songs and produced for, O'Jays probably being their best and most successful.

    There will never be another Eddie Levert or shall I say Ojay's.. They never rushed their lyrics and maybe because they were complete songs. They teach you how to love women the right way. The group never broke up. The tides that bind. Real music and thank God for the late Don Cornelius.. Love you always Don. Soul Train was a hope for for Soul music and R&B even in 2021..

    I recall reading an article where Eddie stated that he wanted to make every female in the audience feel as if he was singing directly to them. This video speaks to that statement. This is why their songs will live on century's to come. O'jays for life.

    Slowing down and transitioning at 3:24 and on was really smooth. When Eddie moved back from the microphone, creating fade while singing is pure genius. You can hear the purity of the groups voice and pieces of instruments that united perfectly with their voices. Like adding cheese to a burger. Beautiful
