Commodores - Machine Gun This epic song needed to be extended desperately for ages. Also, it doesn't hurt to add a funky booty shaking music video.

As a teenager I ran a discotheque with a friend, did weddings, etc. This record ALWAYS got the crowd dancing! And I mean always! It was embarrassing how easy it was. The only skill was WHEN to play it. You had to feel for when was the right time!

Many people today don't know that this is a Commodores' song! It was actually their first big hit and their ONLY instrumental song. It's a nice jam.
@bpabustan3 жыл бұрын
I beg to disagree on this being the only Commodores instrumental tune. Also on that same album (their debut) on the same side (side 1) the last track is also an instrumental - Rapid Fire. On their 3rd album Movin' On, there's an instrumental, the last track called Cebu. So, kabayan, the total number of instrumentals of the Commodores (with Lionel Richie in the line up at least) totals to 3.

Bro, this track was a Super Smash in the Phil in the mid 70's. It was so big that, for the first time in Phil radio history, they started to feature this in a 30min non-stop play to the delight of all dance afficionados (very early stage of Disco) and even just for the pulsating, synth magical sound! Incredible track! Then the Commodores held a sold-out concert to the Filipino people. Loved them!

Historic first single by The Commodores in 1974. They had just come from a worldwide tour opening for the Jackson 5 in 1973 when they finally convinced Motown to release this Super Jam that lit up all dance floors nationwide. Oddly Motown was seeking a lead singer for the group and quickly went to Lionel R. who was not really a part of the group or the tour with J5. The drummer and the lead quitar player, in my opinion were very good lead singers but Lionel was given the lead nod. Go figure.
@rooseveltb9962 жыл бұрын
It was a good move putting Lionel as the lead. Their would be no 3 times a lady, Easy, fancy dancer and just to be close to you. Lionel wrote a lot of the commodores hits. Gotta give Lionel his props.

I like this song's funky rhythm guitar(0:20~0:37). I try to play rhythmical and cool like this. Sorry to write my poor English text from Japan.
