Command Performance


Shalamar was one of my all time favorite groups, beauty, talent, fashion and trendsetters that is what this group brought to the entertainment Industry. I love this performance very energetic and the song "Night To Remember" holds so many wonderful memories for a lot of people. Also notice the background singer is Watley's good friend Jermaine Stewart(RIP). Jody Watley, Jeffrey Daniels and Howard Hewitt parted ways long time ago, but for the five years that they were together as a group, what beautiful music we're left with. This performance warms my heart and takes me back to a happy time in my life. Enjoy!

  1. NICE!!!! Look at the outfits! Look at the stage. That was back when people still sang in front of a live band and actually sang into the mic. Now it's performance tracks.

  3. Love Shalamar. Howard has a GREAT voice, and listen how he played with the original melody, improvising with his vocal, the sign of a great singer who REALLY understands MUSIC. and jeffrey did the moonwalk first, yes, I remember........

  7. This is my favorite song by Shalamar and believe me I had many, but I love this song because it's one of the rare songs where Jody badass Watley got to sing lead! I miss the good ole days.

  14. you out did yourself with this Commmand Performance, man you took it all the way back there, I remember where I was when this song came out, Shalamar was huge at the time. Solar Records had everything on lock at that time Dick Griffrey was getting paid.
    Thanks for the stroll down memory lane....can't wait to see what other jewels you pull out your hat.
