In all honesty, just one look at the tracklisting is enough to make any self-respecting music fan fall to their knees.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Compilation!, May 8, 2004

I have purchased this Lionel Richie and The Commodores double CD in the UK. If you compare it to the US Definitive Collection, the US version has nothing on this compilation. It has all Lionel's big hits, and more, from all his solo works and as a member of the Commodores. I'm not a big Commodores fan, but listening to this compilation would make anyone like me become one. Listening to the Commodores songs on this CD shows you just how good the Commodores were. This compilation also has two songs on it that I don't believe are on any other Lionel Richie CDs. Those songs, "I Forgot" and "To Love A Woman" duet with Enrique Iglesias are both superb songs. I Forgot is a beautiful love ballad that really touches the heart. Although To Love A Woman is more of an Enrique, it deserves its place on this compilation as another beautiful Lionel Richie song. I would highly recommend this Definitive Collection over the US version anyday.

5.0 out of 5 stars a Great overview, October 8, 2006

This review is from: Definitive Collection (Audio CD)

Lionel Richie is One of the Few Artists who truly did it the right way both as a member of a very Successful Band&then later on as a Solo Artist. He understood what Words&Music was truly all about. his material covered R&B,Pop,Gospel&country. He didn't sound like anybody else&just always understood the power of using the Bridge in his music. the Man is One of the All time Greatest Artists as a Singer,Songwriter&all around force. so many great songs that truly stand the test of time. this is what a Double Set is all about. Lionel Richie is One of My All Time Favorite Artists.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is an Import "Best Of" worth the price!, October 27, 2006

Both as a founder member of the Commodores as well as a solo artist, Lionel Richie is one of the best singers/composers/performers from "the miraculous MOTOWN Hit Maker". This import compilation has a very good selection from both stages in LR career, including the wonderful hits "Easy", "Brick House", the nice and funky instrumental "Machine Gun", "Stuck On You", "Hello", "Do It To Me" (single version), "Love Will Conquer All" and more. If you're planning to go into Lionel Richie's magnificent career in music, this CD is definitely for you.
