Friends is the sixth album by AmericanR&B group Shalamar, released in 1982 on the SOLAR label. The album, which features the 'classic' Shalamar line-up (Jeffrey Daniel, Howard Hewett and Jody Watley), topped the R&B chart and peaked at #35 on the Billboard chart. It has been certified Gold in the United States for sales over 500,000. It would eventually go Platinum.In the United KingdomFriends gained impetus from a now-legendary demonstration of body-popping by Daniel during a performance of 'A Night to Remember' on the BBC programme Top of the Pops. It reached #6 on the UK Albums Chart and produced four top 20 singles.
In 2002, Friends was re-released by Sanctuary Records in the United Kingdom in a double-CD package with Shalamar's previous album Go for It.

Their first hit was the 1977 Motown-inspired production 'Uptown Festival', the success of which inspired Griffey to replace his session singers with vocalists Jody Watley, Jeffrey Daniel, and Howard Hewett (the latter replacing short-time members Gary Mumford and,later,Gerald Brown) in 1979.The group was joined up with producer Leon Sylvers III in 1979, signed with Griffey's SOLAR Records and scored a U.S. million seller with 'The Second Time Around' (#1 U.S. R&B, #8 U.S. Pop).
In the UK the group had a string of hits with songs such as 'Take That To The Bank' (1978), 'I Owe You One' (1980) and 1982's 'I Can Make You Feel Good', 'A Night to Remember', 'There It Is' and 'Friends'.The album of the same title Friends was also a big seller in the UK in 1982 crossing the genres of pop, disco and soul. The band's record sales in the UK increased dramatically[citation needed] when Daniels demonstrated his body-popping dancing skills on BBC Television's music programme, Top of the Pops, premiering the Moonwalk on television for the first time. Michael Jackson was an ardent fan of the group, in particular, Jeffrey and his dance moves, after watching him for years on the show[citation needed], Soul Train. Jackson and Daniels met after, Jackson took his then 12 year old sister Janet to see Shalamar perform at Disneyland. Jeffrey Daniel went on to teach Jackson the Moonwalk and choreographed Jackson's 'Bad' and 'Smooth Criminal' videos.
The group took a knock when both Watley and Daniels left the band over artistic arguments with the SOLAR record label, shortly after the release of their next album The Look in the spring of 1983.Nonetheless, the album yielded a number of UK hit singles including 'Disappearing Act', Dead Giveaway (also a #22 U.S. Pop hit), and 'Over And Over'. The album itself moved Shalamar into a more new wave/Synthpop direction, with rock guitars to the fore. But The Look generally was not the success that Friends had been the previous year.
With a mid 1980s line-up change with Delisa Davis and Micki Free, Shalamar returned to the U.S. Top 20 in 1984 with 'Dancing In The Sheets' from the Footloose soundtrack, peaking at #17, and they won a Grammy for 'Don't Get Stopped in Beverly Hills' from Beverly Hills Cop in 1986.
But when Hewett left for a solo career in 1986, and was replaced by Sydney Justin, the band faded into temporary obscurity.The group recorded 1987's Circumstantial Evidence, which was a commercial disappointment, and faded away soon after the release of 1990's Wake Up.
Jody Watley, launched her own successful solo career in 1987 winning The Grammy Award for Best New Artist and releasing decades of hit singles in the Pop, R&B, and Dance genres including 'Looking For a New Love' and 'Friends' featuring Eric B & Rakim. She rejoined with Hewett and Daniels, plus LL Cool J, on Babyface's 1996 million-selling single 'This Is for the Lover in You'; a cover of a hit single from Shalamar's 1980 album Three For Love. Watley was also one of the few American singers to perform on the original Band Aid record recorded by mostly British singers in November 1984. Free was mentioned on Chappelle's Show, under Charlie Murphy's 'True Hollywood Stories' when playing basketball with Prince.
Shalamar reformed in 2005, for the UK television series, Hit Me, Baby, One More Time, with original members Jeffrey Daniels, Howard Hewett, and with new singer Carolyn Griffey (long time friend and fan of the original band, and daughter of Shalamar founder Dick Griffey). They reached the grand final on 22 May 2005, ultimately losing out to Shakin' Stevens.
Shalamar has scored a total of three gold albums in the U.S.; with Big Fun, Three for Love (which eventually went platinum) and Friends.
Also in 1980, the band made a promotion of 'The Second Time Around' for the radio station KJR in Seattle, called 'The Sonics Came To Play'; dedicated to the Seattle SuperSonics who had won the NBA Championship, the previous year.
