i love chic...but they did steal a funkadelic riff at the end of this song. it's ok because there's only a million songs that other artists copied from chic. tony and bernard r.i.p
I remember this not being too well reviewed at the time -- too self-consciously 'moderne', perhaps -- but it sounds incredible today, and full of those little flourishes and melodic twists that made Chic so special. Even a lesser Chic track is head and shoulders above most of what passes for R&B these days! Thank you for posting...
Calling them a disco group is almost insulting. They made really good dancing music, but IT'S ALL GOOD !!!!!! Hey Frenchiic, keep em coming. You know what time it is.
believe it or not this chic record signaled the end of disco. the music was shifting r&B, house music was in its early stages, funk chic sadly was officially dead with disco

Tony was one of the most underated drummers in the business, this cat had mad groove.
I loved these guys, and have every album "Yes wax" R.I.P. Bernard, and Tony

Tony Thompson (of CHIC) was involved and had record sessions with the reunited Led Zeppelin in 1985.
He could have been the new drummer of Led Zeppelin.
Unfortunately, ha had a car accident and the project of a new Led Zeppelin LP failed.

30 years later we listen and we enjoy to "minor" hits of CHIC. I'm OK with you, I don't think in 30 yers we will still listen to modern R'n'B hits !

Another one of my favourites and a bit of a change for them, a bit more rockier.
I was a bit surprised when this first came out but soon settled down into their new sound.
