Marvin, he was a friend of mine
And he could sing his song
His heart in every line
Marvin, sang of the joy and pain
He opened up our minds
And I still can hear him say
Oh talk to me
so you can see
what's goin' on
Say you will sing your songs
for evermore

Great Albums - 1970s: #TheCommodores – S/T (1977). This LP isn’t proper yacht/ MOR because “Squeeze the Fruit” and “Brick House” have enough genuine gitdown funk to rock the clubhouse to the ground. Still, Lionel Richie was obviously sharpening his mellow attack, waiting to conquer the 80s, because “Zoom” and “Easy” are smooth as honey on Melba toast. These are fine songs, and Thomas McClary’s guitar solo on “Easy” is a masterclass in simplicity.
