Lionel Richie headed into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame on Saturday during an induction ceremony in Los Angeles. The singer-songwriter played a trio of tunes at the ceremony including the Commodores’ classic “Easy” with help from Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl.
Richie’s fellow 2022 inductees included Dolly Parton, Eminem, Duran Duran, Eurythmics, Carly Simon and Pat Benatar. Lionel’s special guest, Dave Grohl, was inducted as a member of Foo Fighters in 2021 and as a member of Nirvana in 2014.

Inducted by Lenny Kravitz, Richie took the Rock Hall ceremony stage to deliver his 1983 ballad, “Hello.” Grohl then helped Lionel take it back to his Commodore days with 1977’s “Easy,” delivering guitar on the tune. Richie would go it alone for “All Night Long” to conclude his portion of the ceremony.
