The Commodores "Easy" 1978 (Reelin' In The Years Archives)

[@slickmic6113]

growing up a little white boy from a small town in Wisconsin I used to watch Soul Train every Saturday at 1 p.m. growing up that's when I first discovered the Commodores and I knew when I grow up I want to be a black musician and play in a funk band!!!!!

[@sheiladavis6523]

Slick Mic -- SO you were little white boy & you watched Soul Train on 📺 If God wanted you to be black he would had created you black . Why you couldn't be a white musician that played in a funk band or any other type of band music you wanted to play in. To me music has no color & neither does a soul take care 🎤🎶🎷🎵🎹🎼🎸🎺April 17,2020

He is also a great songwriter too.
