Yes Lionel Richie was with the Commodores!!!

Yes lead singer. This is where he started

Commodores were a huge Alabama Funk ("Machine Gun", "Brick House", "Slippery When Wet") act on Motown in the 1970s. Over the years, though, it was often the Country-flavored ballads ("Sail On", "Easy", "Three Times a Lady", "Just to Be Close to You") written, sung, and produced by Lionel Richie that put them on the Pop charts. After a few years, he kinda started taking over the band, and they pushed back, inspiring him to begin his successful solo career in 1982. This was right before that. They had one major non-Lionel hit in 1985 with "Nightshift" (US#3), while Lionel Richie himself became one of the biggest recording acts of 1982-86 with an impressive string of 13 consecutive USTop10 singles (five of which went to US#1). He was huge. I recommend his hits "You Are", "Stuck on You", "Running with the Night", "Penny Lover", "My Love", and "Say You, Say Me". Really, they're all solid.

I actually met Lionel Richie once. I am an actor and I was working with a murder-mystery dinner company and we were doing a show at a very classy restaurant in W. L. A.. Lionel and his family were sitting at one of the tables. My character was sitting at one of the tables with my "wife" trying to act like part of the audience. Halfway through the show my "wife" gets "killed" and the detective stands me up to ask me some questions. I speak lovingly about my "late wife" and this time I ended it by saying "She was once...twice...three times a lady". I actually sang the last part of it. Lionel started laughing and banging on the table as I sang. After the show I went up to him and asked him if I owed any payment for singing his song and he just burst out laughing again.

The Commodores most successful period was in the late 1970s and early 1980s when Lionel Richie was the co-lead singer. The band's biggest hit singles are "Easy", "Three Times A Lady", "Sweet Love", "Just To Be Close To You", "Still", "Oh No", "Lady (You Bring Me Up)", "Sail On", "Nightshift", "Brick House", "Fancy Dancer", "Lady (You Bring Me Up)", "Too Hot ta Trot" etc. Lionel Ritchie went on to have a big solo career.

Lionel Richie is what made the Commodores . He was with the group first. One of the best singers and song writer's of all time. Listen to Still and Three Times A Lady!!

This song was another big r&b crossover hit for them. It went all the way to #1 on the Billboard Soul chart and it peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the fall of 1981. Sadly, this song was Lionel Richie's next to last Top 10 hit as the original lead singer. An absolute awesome song indeed!!!

Lionel was the lead singer from 1968-1982. He then went solo.

Yes Lionel Richie was the lead singer of the Commoders before he went solo. Then what an amazing solo Carreer he had.

LIONEL RICHIE: "Truly"

His career in music began with the funk and rhythm and blues group the Commodores, in which he was a lead vocalist before he transitioned to a fruitful solo career. 1968-1982

You guy did "Brick House", on which he didn't sing lead. But from the 80s on, he was the lead singer on most of their hit songs. "Three Times a Lady", "Easy", "Sail On", and "Still" all featured Lionel. Their 1985 song "Nightshift", came after Lionel went solo, but it's a GREAT song, as it was a tribute to Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson, both of whom died in 1984.

Three times a lady by the commodores, featuring Lionel Ritchie

Sail On, Easy, 3 x a Lady all are wonderful, Endless Love (Diana Ross and Lionel) too!!

The Commodores featuring Lionel Richie (before he went solo) are a rabbit hole of musical joy! From here, it's on to Brickhouse, Easy, Zoom, Sweet Love, Sail On, Too Hot to Trot, Just to Be Close to You, Slippery When Wet -- so many possibilities. Their hit 'Three Times a Lady' is an all-time love & romance/wedding song. Also, this is a very early music video (1981), just as videos were gaining popularity, which is partly why it's so simple.

Lionel was a member of The Commodores. He was actually originally the saxophonist for the group, but over time he gravitated to lead vocals. This was all before his solo career.

This is the music I was raised on! The older I get, the more I'm grateful for what my mom taught me through music. The Commodores, Kool & The Gang, Earth, Wind, and Fire, and so much more. I got a music education and had no idea until I got older. And Lionel Ritchie started as the sax player and grew to the lead singer, then went solo.

I went the University of Alabama from 1977 to 1983. I had some friends from Tuskegee. We drove over to see the Commodores in '79. Paid $10 and they played from almost 4 hours. Brick House was an hour. 15 years later on Valentines Day I take my wife to see Lionel Richie in Mobile Al. Paid $75 a piece and he played for just over an hour.

I love the commodores and Lionel Richie... 3 times a lady is one of my favorites...

Impossible to sit still when this music is on. That was the fashion back in the day.

I think that's why Lionel Richie eventually left Commodores. Different musical interests. I love all those sugary sweet songs too. Together with the song Truly. Very soft and deep at the same time. Easy was probably their biggest hit. And Amber at 5:33 "It's so EASY to get lost". For me she can lose herself more often in songs by Lionel Richie 😉

The 70’s fashion! Lionel wrote and sang but he wasn’t the only one, he just stood out. There are several Commodores songs that you need to do!

Music history in the 70’s and early 80’s Lionel Richie was the Lead singer of the commodores and then turned solo in the 80’s and beyond

You two need to hear the Commodores “Sweet Love” from 1975, it’s EPIC.

Two of their best songs are "Zoom" and "Sweet Love" also, Lionel Was the lead singer for The Commodores first and then went out on his own.

Lionel Richie was with the Commodores before he went solo. Lionel Richie is one of the greats when he was with the Commodores and when he went solo. You can't go wrong with any of his music, in my opinion. When he was with the Commodores, he was the lead singer on many of their hits, but couple others in the band also saying lead in some of their songs.

From 1981 my favourite Commodores tune along with Nightshift from 1985

Lionel Richie was first with the Commodores before he went solo! Definitely should do more reaction with the commodores which had lots of good hits.

Lionel Ritchie has a fantastic voice. He started with the Commodores as their lead singer. Then he went on his own as a single. He’s had a great career. I’ve seen him in concerts and he is the real deal. Always a great show.

I sometimes forget how young you guys are. The Commodores are 70’s royalty. Lionel Richie went solo and did very well too. If you liked this try some Earth Wind and Fire. Amazing bands and I’m loving your parents. We must be close in age. 😁❤️❤️

Although, Lionel didn't sing lead, you two reacted to their song Brick House already. I remember Amber saying that her dad would go around the house and sing that line to her mom. They had some phenomenal hits. Definitely check out more

The Commodores, the pride of Alabama. Brings back memories of doing "the bump" to Brickhouse in the clubs in the 70s. That's a dance move btw. LOL

Yes, that was Lionel! This was his group before he went solo in the 80's. So cool you are discovering new things about these iconic artists. I wish I can go back into the 80's as a 41 year old and see 80's bands in concert. Request: Commodores--Nightshift, Brick House, Easy Like Sunday Morning.

Yes, Lionel Richie started with the Commadores. After singing Endless Love with Diana Ross, he went on to do a solo career. Commadords were so much fun to dance and get up and moving.
