This song, “Nighshift”, released in early 1985, was a tribute to Jackie Wilson and Marvin Gaye, who both died in 1984. This was the first hit, for the Commodores, after Lionel Ritchie left the group. It reached number three in the UK and on the Billboard Hot 100.

The Commodores – Easy (1977)
This song, one of my favorites, by The Commodores reached Number 4, on the charts in the US, and reached Number 9 in the UK in 1977. It was issued on Motown, and was written by the Commodores lead singer, Lionel Richie. This is probably my favorite slow song, of all time.
