*** THE SESSION- CLUB MIX ***
** CES'T CHIC **
* DJ SANDRO THOMPSON *

CHIC TOOK A MORE AVANT STANCE,STREAMLINING THEIR MUSIC FOR THE CLEANEST,MOST FUNCTIONAL DANCE
SOUND.THOUGH IT SOUNDS A BIT TRAD TODAY,THEIR''DANCE
DANCE,DANCE'' TOOK THE DISCOS BY STORM IN 1977 AND
WRITER/PRODUCERS BERNARD EDWARDS AND NILE ROGERS**
THE BASS PLAYER GUITARIST FOR THE GROUP** WERE
IMMEDIATELY THE MOST IMITATED TEAM AROUND. THE CHIC
SOUND RHYTHMICALLY CONCISE,WITH RAZOR SHARP VOCALS
AND CRYSTALLINE ORCHESTRATION-BECAME THE NEW FORMULA BUT NO ONE COULD TOP ITS ORIGINATORS .
EDWARDS AND ROGERS HAD THEIR FINGERS ON THE PULSE OF
THE DANCE FLOOR AND A KNACK FOR TURNING THE TRIVIAL
ANTHEMIC.
THEIR **GOOD TIMES** STILL CAPTURES THE SPIRIT OF THAT
MOMENT OF EUPHORIA AND OPTIMISM, NO MATTER HOW
REMOTE.

I liked 'Soup for one' as well (before Modjo used it for 'Lady').

[MAN]

Question in which tracks did Luther Vandros appear with chic group and is it only in the CHIC LP or there is another ?

[pepper1dancer]

I also liked "Dancin" by them. Chic was very good in the day. I still enjoy their sound today........

[DiscoMan]

I really really love Chic and I do hope to see Nile Rodgers' re-constituted Chic some day soon.

Silver Logan Sharp may be Hot but she just ain't no substitution for the young Luci Martin, Norma Jean Wright and Alfa Anderson.

I still love you ladies! :D

Question in which tracks did Luther Vandros appear with chic group and is it only in the CHIC LP or there is another ?

He was just a background singer on the Cest Chic LP..no leads
