<p><b>The Commodores</b> ist eine <a href="Vereinigte_Staaten" title="Vereinigte Staaten">amerikanische</a> <a href="Band_(Musik)" title="Band (Musik)">Band</a> aus <a href="Detroit" title="Detroit">Detroit</a>, die ihre größten Erfolge in den 1970er Jahren auf dem <a href="Motown" title="Motown">Motown</a>-Label feierte. Sie entwickelte sich von einer dynamischen <a href="Funk_(Musik)" title="Funk (Musik)">Funk-</a> und Party-Band zu einer populären <a href="Ballade_(U-Musik)" class="mw-redirect" title="Ballade (U-Musik)">Balladen</a>-Gruppe und hatte zwischen 1974 und 1988 29 Hits in den US-R&B-Charts. Mit <i>Three Times a Lady</i> (1978) und <i>Still</i> (1979) erreichte die Band jeweils Platz 1 der Pop- und R&B-Charts. In Deutschland hatte sie mit dem Top-10-Hit <i><a href="Nightshift" title="Nightshift">Nightshift</a></i> (1985) ihren größten Erfolg.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Karriere">Karriere</h2></div>
<p>Die Band entstand aus der Zusammenführung der Bands The Mystics und The Jays. Gründungsmitglieder waren William King (<a href="Trompete" title="Trompete">Trompete</a>), <a href="Thomas_McClary" title="Thomas McClary">Thomas McClary</a> (<a href="Gitarre" title="Gitarre">Gitarre</a>), Ronald LaPread (<a href="E-Bass" title="E-Bass">Bass</a>), Walter Orange (<a href="Schlagzeug" title="Schlagzeug">Schlagzeug</a>), <a href="Lionel_Richie" title="Lionel Richie">Lionel Richie</a> (<a href="Saxophon" title="Saxophon">Saxophon</a>) und <a href="Milan_Williams" title="Milan Williams">Milan Williams</a> (<a href="Keyboard" title="Keyboard">Keyboard</a>). Sämtliche Bandmitglieder sorgten für den Gesang. Ihre Erfolgskarriere begann 1971, als sie als Vorgruppe für die <a href="Jackson_Five" class="mw-redirect" title="Jackson Five">Jackson Five</a> ausgewählt wurden und mit ihnen anderthalb Jahre auf Tournee gingen. Erste Singles zwischen 1969 und 1973 hatten keinerlei Erfolg.
</p><p>Die bekanntesten Hits waren <i>Slippery When Wet</i> (1975), <i>Sweet Love</i>, <i>Just to Be Close to You</i> (1976), <i>Easy</i>, <i>Brick House</i> (1977), <i>Three Times a Lady</i> (1978), <i>Sail On</i>, <i>Still</i> (1979), <i><a href="Lady_(You_Bring_Me_Up)" title="Lady (You Bring Me Up)">Lady (You Bring Me Up)</a></i>, <i>Oh No</i> (1981) und <i>Nightshift</i> (1985). Der Instrumental-Titelsong von ihrem <a href="Deb%C3%BCtalbum" class="mw-redirect" title="Debütalbum">Debütalbum</a> <i>Machine Gun</i> wurde in den USA zu einer Art Hymne bei zahlreichen Sportveranstaltungen.
</p><p>1982 stieg Lionel Richie aus der Band aus, um sich seiner im Vorjahr begonnenen Solokarriere zu widmen. Dies sorgte für den langsamen Abstieg der Band. Richie wurde ersetzt durch den Saxophonisten J. D. Nicholas.
</p><p>Mit dem Titel <i><a href="Nightshift" title="Nightshift">Nightshift</a></i>, einem Tribut an die 1984 verstorbenen Sänger <a href="Marvin_Gaye" title="Marvin Gaye">Marvin Gaye</a> und <a href="Jackie_Wilson" title="Jackie Wilson">Jackie Wilson</a>, gelang den Commodores Anfang 1985 noch einmal ein großer Hit, für den die Gruppe nach acht Nominierungen erstmals mit dem Grammy ausgezeichnet wurde.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Die Band verließ Motown noch im selben Jahr. Die nachfolgenden Alben <i>United</i> (1986) und <i>Rock Solid</i> (1988) erschienen bei <a href="Polydor" title="Polydor">Polydor</a>, konnten aber nicht an die vorherigen Erfolge anknüpfen.
</p><p>Im Jahr 2003 wurden The Commodores in die <a href="Vocal_Group_Hall_of_Fame" title="Vocal Group Hall of Fame">Vocal Group Hall of Fame</a> aufgenommen.
</p><p>Das Gründungsmitglied Milan Williams starb am 9. Juli 2006 im Alter von 58 Jahren an den Folgen einer schweren Krebserkrankung im MD Anderson Hospital in Houston, Texas.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Heute besteht die Band weiterhin, allerdings mit nur noch drei Mitgliedern: William King, Walter Orange und J. D. Nicholas.
