		The Osmonds were signed on as regular nighttime performers, and luck smiled on them just a few weeks later when the father of popular singer — and newly minted variety-show host — Andy Williams caught their act and recommended them to his son.
		The Osmonds' momentum was slowed a bit in 1973 with The Plan, a concept album about their Mormon faith that failed to connect with the record-buying public to the same degree (although it was surprisingly popular in the U.K.).
		The early '80s found the four eldest members of the Osmonds performing together as a country act under the name the Osmond Brothers, and achieving respectable commercial success; Marie followed a similar musical path after the Donny and Marie variety show (which ran from 1976-1978) was cancelled.
