About Rose Royce
Rose Royce developed as a Los Angeles group closely associated with producer Norman Whitfield. Its catalog combines disco-funk dance tracks with romantic soul ballads. Car Wash and Do Your Dance represent the rhythmic side, while Wishing on a Star, I Wanna Get Next to You and Love Don't Live Here Anymore emphasize a gentler approach.
