BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1986
REQUEST
“Goin’ To The Bank” was the first single released from the album United by The Commodores in 1986 as the follow-up to their extremely successful Nightshift album from the previous year. This album included one of The Commodores’ last significant hits “Goin’ to the Bank,” and it has been the group’s last major charting album to date, even though they have gone on to release several albums since. “Goin’ to the Bank” climbed to #2 on Billboard’s R&B singles chart. The single also charted in the UK peaking at #43.
This is the second 12″ featuring the “Credit Card Mix” and “New Dub Mix”. These mixes are exclusive to the German and US singles.
