▓ ▓
▓ In the 1960s, you didn't have to live in the Deep ▓
▓ South to have a southern R&B sound. Aretha Franklin ▓
▓ lived in Detroit, but many of her 1960s recordings ▓
▓ favored the rawness and toughness of southern soul ▓
▓ over the sleeker, more pop-influenced soul that was ▓
▓ coming out of Detroit as well as Chicago and ▓
▓ Philadelphia. And even though the Ohio Players were ▓
▓ from Dayton, many of their early recordings sound ▓
▓ like they could have been recorded in Memphis. ▓
▓ Produced by Johnny Brantley in New York, Observations ▓
▓ in Time is full of songs that would have been perfect ▓
▓ for a Sam & Dave or Rufus Thomas session there is no ▓
▓ shortage of southern-style grit on "Street Party," ▓
▓ "The Man That I Am" or the single "Here Today and ▓
▓ Gone Tomorrow" (which was a minor hit). However, some ▓
▓ of these 1968 recordings hint at the type of ▓
▓ jazz-influenced experiments that the Players would ▓
▓ provide at Westbound in the early 1970s. The jazz ▓
▓ influence is strong on imaginative versions of the ▓
▓ standards "Over The Rainbow" and "Summertime," and ▓
▓ "Cold Cold World" is the sort of jazz/blues item that ▓
▓ one would have expected from Lou Rawls, Jimmy ▓
▓ Witherspoon or Bobby "Blue" Bland in the 1960s. So ▓
▓ even though the Players offer a lot of ▓
▓ southern-minded R&B on Observations in Time (which ▓
▓ was their only album for Capitol), they aren't afraid ▓
▓ to branch out and try some other things. Thankfully, ▓
▓ this album was reissued on CD in the 1990s. ▓
