Commodores – In The Pocket

In The Pocket is a 1981 Motown release from The Commodores, featuring Lionel Richie during the height of the group’s smooth soul era.

The album blends polished early-’80s R&B with classic Commodores funk elements and romantic ballads.

Includes:

• “Lady (You Bring Me Up)” – major hit single
• “Oh No” – one of Lionel Richie’s most recognizable ballads
• “Why You Wanna Try Me”
• “Saturday Night”

Produced by James Anthony Carmichael and The Commodores, this album captures the group just before Lionel Richie’s solo superstardom fully took off.

A must-have for Motown collectors and fans of early ’80s soul.
