THE BLACK KEYS - OHIO PLAYERS (Silver Vinyl)[Import]

2024 release. Ohio Players is The Black Keys' fourth album in five years, a momentum with a simple explanation, Auerbach says: "We never stopped recording." There was his and Carney's reunion, after a five-year hiatus, on 2019's "Let's Rock", then the 2021 blast of Mississippi-hill-country covers, Delta Kream. A rapid-fire follow-up of new originals, 2022's Dropout Boogie, featured the duo working with outside writers for the first time: Greg Cartwright of Memphis rockers Reigning Sound and Angelo Petraglia, who has worked with Kings of Leon and the teenage Taylor Swift. (Cartwright and Petraglia are back for Ohio Players too.)

RMFN Notes:

"A late career triumph that proves the Keys aren't slowing down. Plus, several songs with writing credits from Noel Gallagher - does it get better than that?!" - Chris
