COMMODORES FOREVER!! They aren't there...yet....but everybody knows this group deserves R&R Hall of Fame except those folks that vote every year and induct groups and bands much less deserving.
Classic. Absolutely fabulous song, from a once-in-a-lifetime band. The Commodores were American originals and the airwaves sorely miss their extraordinary talent.
No huge light production with pyros techs. No smoke machines. No auto-tune & backing tracks. No lip-syncing, but real "live" vocals with great harmonies accompanied by real instrument playing & musicianship with talent, artistry and lyrics that mean something and inspire....
1st met Commodores in 1971 when they were opening band for Jackson Five 1st US Tour in July at Madison Square Garden for Radio Contest I won, free airfare, limited, hotel, front row tickets, backstage passes, Autigraphed etc etc I had a ball as teenager! Met Commodores, got my 1st kiss from Lionel Richie, real man! Loved talking with him backstage..So much fun, !! Also if course, main attraction Met Michael and his Dad, brothers. Lost my massive collections in Hurricane Ian September 2022 direct hit here in Florida. Wish to meet Lionel 1 m9revtime 4:10
A shame about the audio quality, but I love looking at videos that shows the seventies. The lyrics are hopelessly inspirational...Sunshine is over the rainbow...
This is from a show in the 70's called The Midnight Special . Does the video poster have the other performance when they do Slippery When Wet ? That was on fire !!!!!!
