Rose Royce
The Very Best Of Rose Royce (Remastered) (2001)
allmusic.com...
Rose Royce -- the Los Angeles-based group comprised of Henry Garner (drums); Terral "Terry" Santiel (congas); Lequeint "Duke" Jobe (bass); Michael Moore (saxophone); Gwen Dickey, performing with the group using the stage name Rose Norwalt (lead vocals); Kenny Copeland (trumpet, lead vocals); Kenji Brown (guitar, lead vocals); Freddie Dunn (trumpet); and Michael Nash (keyboards) -- were actually formed by Copeland and Garner. Both were preparing for graduation from high school, and contemplating their careers. Joined by Dunn and Moore, the two decided to go the route of the music business under the name Total Concept Unlimited (and later as Magic Wand). They auditioned for Edwin Starr, and he hired them as his backup band.
There has never been a compilation as comprehensive as Rhino's The Very Best of Rose Royce, a 16-track trawl through their past that hits from their recordings for MCA and Whitfield, which means it has just about every hit that most fans could want from a collection. In fact, it may be a little long for some listeners, since 16 tracks is a lot of Rose Royce, but it certainly doesn't leave you wanting more, and it has fine sound and fine notes from A. Scott Galloway, which all adds up to the best collection yet assembled on the disco outfit (and likely one of the best that will ever be assembled).
