@achewood There are only five Wodehouse books on my special Wodehouse shelf?! As Jeeves himself might ask, "Where in the fuck are the rest of them."

Tuskeegee (LIonel Richie Goes Country)
« on: April 03, 2012, 04:22:36 am »
Heard an interview with Richie on NPR this afternoon about his new country album.  They played a few snippets and I suddenly realized he is the R&B (Disco? Funk? What is Lionel Richie's native style?) version of Kenny Rogers.

I hope I never have to refer to a scone in spoken conversation.

R&B Easy Listening.
Not exactly my cup of tea either.

Yeah, Lionel fell off, but the Commodores take a back seat to no band when it comes to funk. I rate them as good as EWF (ok, P-Funk has them beat, but they're up there just below that echelon).

I'd rather know that Lionel's doing country as opposed to Jon BJ. Of course, I don't need to actually hear any of it.

Lionel doing Jon BJ.

Now there's nightmare(?) fuel right there.

That's a construction I hadn't intended.

I think I posted a picture of that flyer when it was up in my neighborhood.
