One hit wonders of the 70's, but an unforgettable hit single "Native New Yorker", makes them relevant and timeless in my book. ~Hope Elle~ Artist Biography by Bil Carpenter First formed as the Lopez Sisters (Carmen, Lillian, and Louise) in 1968, Carmen dropped out and Tony Reynolds (a Manilla native) joined to form Odyssey. After performances in New York clubs, they hit it big in 1977 with the soft disco cuts "Native New Yorker" and "Easy Come, Easy Go." Their music had a subtle Caribbean feel, and while their U.S. hits soon dried up, they had a few more hits in the U.K. before the group fell apart. ~allmusic.com~ #onehitwonder #odyssey #rnb #group #70s #vintage #vinyl #oldiebutgoodie #smooth #soul #islandbeat
