The O'Jays - BBC In Concert, Hammersmith Odeon, London, Britain, 2-5-1988

I didn't think I'd find any BBC concerts by the O'Jays, since the BBC isn't strong with American soul music. But I happened to come across this one, so here it is.

The O'Jays had their commercial peak in the 1970s, when the had eight Gold or Platinum albums in the U.S., and big singles like "Back Stabbers" and "Love Train." This concert took place in 1988. That happened near the end of their hit making years, with a Number One soul hit, "Lovin' You," in 1987. Curiously, that song wasn't included here. 

Instead, it's pretty much all 1970s hits. The pace is pretty relentless. There was no banter between songs whatsoever, and also almost no time for applause, except at the very end.

The music here is unreleased. The sound quality is very good. 

This album is 43 minutes long.
