ST JOHN'S, Antigua - Grammy award-winning pop singer Lionel Richie said Saturday he and the Commodores will reunite soon for a tour.
Richie said a reunion could happen in the next two years because it is important the group get together before it loses more band members. Guitarist Milan Williams died two years ago.
"We better do it now, or in the next 10 years nobody would care,'' he said before singing at Antigua's Romantic Rhythms festival.
The Commodores were known for hits like "Three Times a Lady'' and "Brick House.''
The 58-year-old Ritchie was confident synergy still exists between band members. He said Commodores' bass player Ronald La Pread joined him on stage during his last tour and played some of the group's old hits.
Richie broke away from the Commodores in the late 1970s and topped the charts in the '80s with songs like "Endless Love'' and "Say You, Say Me.''
