The O'Jays - Ship Ahoy I Love Music

Review by Prasad Prabhu

The O'Jays' 1975 album, Ship Ahoy, has been hailed as one of the greatest soul albums of all time. Their hit single, "For the Love of Money," became an anthem for the era, and the album as a whole showcased the group's impeccable harmonies and socially conscious lyrics.

I Love Music, the opening track on the album, sets the tone for the rest of the record with its infectious groove and uplifting message. The O'Jays' vocals are smooth and soulful, and the instrumentation is tight and funky. The song's refrain of "I love music, any kind of music" is a testament to the power of music to bring people together.

Other standout tracks on the album include Don't Call Me Brother, which addresses the issue of racism and discrimination, and Put Your Hands Together, which encourages listeners to join in and celebrate the joy of music. The album also features the soulful ballad, You Got Your Hooks in Me, which showcases the group's ability to deliver heartfelt performances.
