Ohio Players are an American funk band, most popular in the 1970s. They are best known for their songs “Fire” and “Love Rollercoaster”, and for their erotic album covers that featured nude or nearly nude women. Many of the women were models featured in Playboy.
Angel is the ninth studio album by the Ohio Players, and the sixth album recorded for Mercury. The band grew from seven to eight members with the addition of Clarence “Chet” Willis on rhythm guitar.
