Rose Royce, a group based in Los Angeles, was founded by Copeland and Garner. Together with Dunn and Moore, the two agreed to go down the music industry as Total Concept Unlimited (and later as Magic Wand). They're best known for their hit singles in the 1970s, including 'Car Wash' 'I Wanna Get Next to You' 'I'm Going Down' 'Wishing on a Star' and 'Love Don't Live Here Anymore.'
The band first formed under the name Total Concept Unlimited in the early 70s. Total Concept Unlimited toured in Japan with Edwin Starr in 1973. Starr introduced the group to Whitfield, who renamed the band Rose Royce. The group hit pay dirt when they got the plumb opportunity to provide several songs for the comedy film "Car Wash." The band continued to record albums and singles throughout the 80s and beyond. Rose Royce's songs have been covered by such notable music artists as Madonna, Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Randy Crawford, Christina Aguilera, Teena Marie, Patti LaBelle, and En Vogue. Moreover, the group are still together with a mostly different line-up and continue to perform on stage regularly.
