Commodores is the self-titled fifth studio album by the Commodores, released in 1977. The album spent eight weeks at the top of the R&B/soul albums chart, the second of their albums to do so, and was their first Top 5 pop album.

„The Commodores' early years were spent on the Southern funk circuit, where their energetic, catchy tunes, and keyboard-oriented funk made them both a college and a radio staple. They scored seminal hits with 'Brick House' and 'Slippery When Wet,' although it became apparent quite early that lead vocalist Lionel Richie also had a bright future as a solo balladeer, with such tunes as 'Easy' signaling his future on adult contemporary and Quiet Storm/urban contemporary radio. This collection highlights early up-tempo and ballad hits.“ (Ron Wynn, AMG)
