Lionel Richie was still a Commodore when he released his first, self-titled album on October 6, 1982. But such was its immense success that there was no turning back. Four million sales in the US alone sent a very clear message that his fans wanted Lionel solo.

Released in 1985, Behind the Sun is an often-overlooked album in the Clapton catalog. However, it should be remembered, as it features great guitar playing, wonderful songwriting and it was Eric's first collaboration with drummer Phil Collins.

Big Bam Boom really dives head first into the electronic sound, chock-full of way more synthesized sound that what was ever heard before. It was a daring left turn for the pop-rock act, and it definitely paid off, giving them their final #1 hit with "Out of Touch."

This album stands as a down to earth and yet rather bold musical experimentation that reflects the young age of the musicians in the best way. A virtually perfect body of music, surprisingly humble in its boldness. It is also the first time Toto tried to free themselves from the commercial chains.
