The Ohio Players formed in 1959 in Dayton, Ohio, USA. Originally named The Ohio Untouchables, they were the studio house band at King Records.
Renamed the Ohio Players, the group signed to Capitol Records in Los Angeles in the mid '60s. In 1972, the band signed to Westbound Records in Detroit and achieved commercial success, after which it recorded for Mercury Records.
The original band members of The Ohio Players are Leroy Bonner, Billy Beck, Clarence Satchell, Ralf Middlebrooks, Marshall Jones and Jimmy Williams.

 For the very first time you can now get your hands on a Definitive Collection of the Funk sensation that was The Ohio Players. Robinsongs are proud to be the first label to combine the Capitol, Westbound, Mercury, Arista and Boardwalk repertoire to make this unique compilation, but they did not stop there, they have also included material from Band members: Junie Morrison, Sugarfoot and Shadow (Billy Beck, Clarence Willis and Diamond) to give you a total career overview of this exceptional Funk Band. This package also includes a 28-page colour booklet, that includes an essay by Christian John Wikane a New York based music journalist, with contributions by the band’s drummer and architect of the Ohio Players beat James Diamond Williams.
