CAR WASH

Car Wash is the iconic 1976 soundtrack to the hit comedy film of the same name, performed by Rose Royce and produced by Motown legend Norman Whitfield. Bursting with infectious grooves, heartfelt ballads, and high-energy funk, the album not only defined the sound of the film but also helped launch Rose Royce into stardom. Anchored by the chart-topping single “Car Wash,” the soundtrack features a dynamic blend of disco, soul, and funk that captures the vibrant, working-class energy of 1970s urban life. With classic tracks like “I Wanna Get Next to You” and “I’m Going Down,” the Car Wash soundtrack remains one of the most beloved and influential soundtracks of the decade.
