"Three Times a Lady" is a 1978 single written by Lionel Richie and it was first recorded by the Commodores of whom he was part. It was recorded on the Motown label, owned by an American record company. The name, derived from motor and town, is also a nickname for Detroit. Motown played an important role in the racial integration of popular music by achieving a crossover success. In the 1960s, Motown and its soul-based subsidiaries were the most successful proponents of what came to be known as "The Motown Sound", a style of soul music with a distinct pop influence. The Shadows recorded an instrumental of the song on their Moonlight Shadows album (1986).
This instrumental version has the lead played on Steelocaster A6 tuning with an accompanying rhythm track on a Martin Custom X acoustic guitar. All other backing is by Ian McCutcheon and Dave Prickett. Key of A/D.

Jim and Len, many thanks for the appreciation, apologies for this late acknowledgement.
I had also posted on other sites, and it has been chosen by the bride for the first dance at the wedding of a new acquaintance in Scotland . That is good for steel guitar...
