Lionel Richie
Alongside co-producer James Anthony Carmichael, whom he had previously worked with while in the Commodores, Richie crafted the template for his Eighties success via the emotional weight behind the chart-topping ballad "Truly", the upbeat horn-driven accents on the chorus of "You Are", and the overall vocal panache on "My Love", which also featured background vocals from a favoured collaborator, Kenny Rogers. (Richie wrote Rogers's massive 1980 #1 crossover hit, "Lady"). Certified quadruple-platinum in Canada and Platinum in the U.K, this is your 80's pop soul guity pleasure.
