That magical time in music history when the mirror ball became a clothing option. Bring on the funk! 🤩🌟🎸🎶

This is the Lionel Richie i miss! How it went from this to “Dancing on the Ceiling” I’ll never know. Great to hear the Commodores playing LIVE too!

Bought one of their albums at a thrift store for $2 it was brand new and came with a full size poster of the band - SO cool!

Rememory Spell; Senior year in High School, me and 5 Partners went to the Auditorium and saw them open for the O'Jays. Lionel was playing sax and keyboards and the whole set was JUST!! like this. Eddie Levert said "Guess we better bring it huh" and man o man did they, I Love Music album was out. One of the best concerts I've ever been to, all for $12.50.

Lionel Ritchie’s Earth Wind and Fire era if you know what I mean.

[StephanieJeanne]

I don't know that song, but looks like they did it live. Couldn’t tell for sure. They had some fancy moves themselves! 🤩💜

[BIZARBIES]

Was Parliament Funkadelic ever on Midnight Special?

[bingeltube]

I think, the vinyl version of this song sounds better. Or is this a very early version of this song?

Rap and Hip Hop has nothing on these Funkster!
