  • It's a great megamix, clean cuts and perfect links of the harmonies of the various tracks.

    I can't help thinking I've heard the mix before. It this taken from a white label 12" that came out in the early 80's by any chance? I had a copy but lost it. This mix only has tracks from the first 3 Chic albums and the 2 Sister Sledge albums, and so did that 12". Actualy I'm happy about that because those 3 albums were the most similar in sound, compared to later work they did.

  • Le Freak by Nile Rodgers (the Book): a great read, totally engrossing; hard to put down. Thanks Nile for your generosity of Spirit in your writing. BIG RESPECT to the genius of Sir Bernard Edwards- stalwart of dance soulful basslines....

  • This is the best mega-mix I have ever heard.

  • Chic another great band, RIP in peace Bernard.
