"... most of the brotherhood anthems have a somewhat more rousing beat than Three Times a Lady. B."
- Robert Christgau
"... continues true to form ... but their diversity is also revealed on such variant tunes as Old-Fashion Love, a lively, danceable love song ... the title cut appears almost rooted to the folk music of the '60s. The adoration the Commodores have gained since their 1974 launch is well earned."
- People
This 1980 release from The Commodores came on the heels of a couple of the band's most successful albums and a string of hit singles, including the number one smash ballad Three Times A Lady from 1978. Some of the songs on Heroes introduce a fair dash of pure gospel and mark a slight return to the more funk-oriented sound of the group's earlier releases, typified by the top 20 single Old-Fashion Love.
