The Commodores are a Grammy Award winning American funk/soul band, most popular in the 1970s and 1980s. The group is best known for their ballads, such as "Easy" and "Three Times a Lady", but, for the most part, the group mainly recorded funky, driven dance-floor hits which include "Slippery When Wet" and "Brick House". Even though the band's 1969 debut album on Atlantic slipped out unnoticed, The Commodores became one of the 1970s most popular recording acts. The Commodores were one of the top bands during their long tenure at Motown. The group is credited with seven number one R&B songs and a host of other Top Ten hits on the Billboard charts, and their catalog includes more than 50 albums. The members of the group met as freshmen at Tuskegee Institute (now Tuskegee University) in 1967, and signed with Motown in November 1972, having first caught the public eye opening for The Jackson 5 while on tour. The Commodores originally called themselves the Jays, but had to change their name because of the similarly named The O'Jays. To choose a new name band member William King opened a dictionary, and randomly picked a word. "We lucked out," he remarked with a laugh when telling this story to People Weekly. "We almost became The Commodes!"
What can I say?, It's Easy like a Sunday morning. They just don't write songs like this anymore...
Music for centuries, everytime you put the commodores on, it's like it's the first time you listen to the song.
