For three decades, the Commodores have remained a force in the
music industry. Many bands would have closed shop after losing
a lead vocalist like Lionel Richie. However, the Commodores
aren't just any group. They have staying power. Just like their
hit song "Brick House," the Commodores have created a foundation
that just won't budge.
After churning out hit after hit in the Motown days, the
Commodores still hadn't achieved Grammy recognition. This
wasn't to be until 1986, without Lionel Richie, when the Commodores
released "Night Shift". Now, the Commodores are ready to climb
the charts again with their first album in five years, Commodores
XX-No Tricks, and their soon to be hit single, "Everything
Reminds Me of You".
In 1968 the group began recording at the Tuskeegee Institute.
After being discovered by Berry Gordy, the Commodores went
on to sell over 50 million records for Motown. With hits like
"Machine Gun," and "Sail On," the Commodores became proven
artists. They proved it then. They proved it in 1986 with
"Night Shift," and now they are ready to prove it again.
Unlike many other groups, the Commodores haven't rested
on their early hits. Quite the contrary, the Commodores have
continued to put out quality work. With the creation of their
new label, the Commodores released Commodore Hits Vol. I,
Commodore Hits Vol. II, Commodores Christmas, and the latest
album, Commodores XX-No Tricks. The Commodores believe in
their work, but they are not the only ones:
"Seventies phenoms return with a self produced album filled
with some great music. The Commodores look set for a fantastic
return."
BRE Music Report, Mar. 12, 1993
"Venerable pop/R&B band issues its first single in five
years engaging vocals woo with warmth and restraint."
Billboard, Mar. 13, 1993
The successful Commodores of the present have not only produced
four new albums, and embarked upon a world-wide tour, but
have created their own record label, Commodores Records and
Entertainment. Today the Commodores stand not only as talented
and successful musicians, but artists, determined to continue
their success into the future.
