Legendary 7 time Grammy Award-Winning Founder of The Commodores Thomas McClary http://www.blogtalkradio.com/totaltutor/2017/11/30/legendary-7-time-grammy-award-winning-founder-of-the-commodores-thomas-mcclary The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview Legendary 7 time Grammy Award-Winning Founder of The Commodores Thomas McClary. The Civil Rights Movement provided the ultimate backdrop that thrusted McClary into an early life of activism and historical triumphs as the first black student to integrate Lake County Public Schools in his hometown of Eustis, Florida. Reared with a tremendous work ethic, he arose from the concrete of societal imposed standards with fervor for life, family, and music.  Countless hours with his guitar, and blood, sweat, and tears became synonymous with crafting a sound that intricately fused rhythm and blues, funk and rock, pop and jazz, and moved audiences to undeniable emotion with a language  that knew no barriers - music. Signed to Motown, under the tutelage of musical mastermind Berry Gordy, and amidst the pleasures and perils of the entertainment industry, there were no records or rules that could not be broken. In the midst of discovering divine purpose, McClary experienced an atmospheric shift that changed the trajectory of his commitment to community, music, and family, giving him a new perspective on life and the way in which it should be lived.
