Album Review

It's inarguable that Lionel Richie's presence in the Commodores was the lifeblood of the group's creative and commercial success during their prime years. Not only the group's unofficial captain, he was also one of the most successful producers and songwriters for Motown during their second golden age. The proof is certainly more than one disc would allow for, so someone over at Universal had the good sense to release this thirty two song, two disc set, which is easily the most thorough retrospective of Richie's work assembled to date. A vast improvement over 2004's Definitive Collection (but comparable to the two disc non-US version) , the removal of some of Richie's more recent work in favor of minor hits is a welcome change and a smart move for fans wanting Richie's lesser known hits from his solo career and from the Commodores. Combining his work with the Commodores with his solo outings was a smart move on Motown's part, as it helps to give listeners a wider perspective on just how important Richie's contributions were to soft rock and pop music. And while not every song may read instantly recognizable on the ears of casual listeners, they are no less enjoyable and infectious. ~ Rob Theakston , All Music Guide
