Lionel Richie (born June 20, 1949) is an American R&B singer, songwriter,
composer, producer and occasional actor.
Lionel Richie's fame began when he was the frontman for the Commodores, a
nationally popular Motown band during the 1970s. They had several hits such as "Easy",
"Three Times A Lady" and "Brick House". Lionel Richie left the Commodores in
1981 for a solo career, becoming one of the most successful artists of the Eighties with five
#1 hits and thirteen consecutive Top 10 hits in the U.S. Some of Lionel Richie's
most popular songs include "Endless Love", "Truly", "All Night Long", "Hello" and "Say
You, Say Me".

Lionel Richie Tickets Continued
Lionel Richie released his self-titled debut album, Lionel Richie, in
1982. The album hit #3 on the music charts and sold over 4 million copies. His 1983 follow
up album, Can't Slow Down, sold over twice as many copies and won the Grammy
Award for the Album of the Year in 1984. His third album, Dancing on the Ceiling,
which was released in 1986, spawned such hits as "Say You, Say Me", "Dancing on the
Ceiling" and "Se La", but it also signified the end of his large commercial success.
Lionel Richie's albums in the '90s, such as Louder Than Words and
Time, all failed to achieve the previous decade's commercial success. Some of
his recent work, such as the album Renaissance, has returned to his older style,
achieving success in Europe, but little in the United States.
In November 2005, Lionel Richie performed with Kenny
Rogers on a CMT Crossroads special. The show gave an informative insight into
their friendship both in and out of the music world. Lionel Richie was also the
headliner at a 2006 Fourth of July tribute concert with Fantasia Barrino at the Philadelphia
Museum of Art. Lionel Richie's latest album, Coming Home, was released
in fall 2006. The first single of the album is called "I Call It Love" and was premiered in July
2006 with his adopted daughter, Nicole Richie, starring in the track's music video.
