"Riding High”, a smoky, somewhat ethereal groove, was a deserved Top 10 R&B hit for the group, and about the only thing which you can pin on Faze-O’s name to the present day, since it became a sampling playground for rappers. Everything else here cops the late 70’s Ohio Players sound unfailingly, alternating dance floor jams with ballads, but the heart, soul, and most of all, wacky sense of humor which was all over classic OP records is sorely missing from Faze-O’s cookie-cutter attempts. The group would release two more records to round out the 70’s then disappear from view; I have not heard them and judging from this release, I’m not sure it’s worth the attempt.
