About
Phase III is the third studio album by The Osmonds, released in 1972. The album entered the Billboard Top LPs chart on January 29th, and reached #10 on March 11th. Two singles released from the album, "Yo-Yo" and "Down by the Lazy River", reached No. 3 and No. 4on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, respectively. The album was certified Gold by the RIAA on May 29th, 1972. Phase III was, as its name implied, a shift in direction for the band, after its 1960s era as variety-show child stars and the band's early breakthrough as bubblegum pop idols, much of this album featured the band moving into a hard rock sound and writing more of their own material. Phase III is the Osmonds' highest ranking album, peaking at #10. Most of the album features lead vocals from Merrill. Some songs have Donny singing with Merrill like on "Yo-Yo." "Business" features: Alan, Wayne, Merrill, and Donny each singing a solo.
