Back is the final studio album by the American band Ohio Players, released in 1988.[1][2] The first single was "Sweat".[3] It was Ohio Players' only album for Track Record Company.[4]
The band supported the album by headlining a SOS Racisme show during the New Music Seminar and with a North American tour.[5][6] "Sweat" and "From Now On (Let's Play)" were minor chart successes.[7]
The album was produced primarily by Ohio Players; the band was made up of five members for the reunion.[8] Some of the tracks incorporated hip hop-influenced sounds.[9] Herbie Hancock contributed to the album after Leroy "Sugarfoot" Bonner had guested on Perfect Machine.[10][11] "I'm Madd!" is about the dangers of drunk driving.[12]
