Today Marks The 37th Anniversary of Midnight Star ‘s 7th Studio Album “Midnight Star” Originally Released on August 24, 1988.
“Midnight Star” is the self-titled studio album by Electro-funk band Midnight Star released in 1988 on SOLAR Records.
The album reached #14 on the U.S. Billboard Top Black Albums chart, and at #96 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart.
Three songs were released from the album Don't Rock the Boat, Snake in the Grass, and "Love Song".
“Don't Rock the Boat (feat. Ecstasy of Whodini)” peaked #3 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Black Singles chart.
"Snake in the Grass" peaked at #10 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Black Singles chart.
"Love Song" reached #55 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Black Singles chart.
The album proved not as successful as their previous three releases, but the singles "Don't Rock the Boat" and "Snake in the Grass" did reach the top of the Billboard charts. The band went on a long hiatus, though they never officially broke up.
The group reunited in 2000 with many of the original members (including all of the singers) and released the album 15th Avenue two years later.
