By Scubaboy VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
Just picture it - you and your mates like metal and prog rock. Anything that had the whiff of commerciality about it was scoffed at. That was me in the late 70's, folks, when Genesis, Yes and Camel were kings in my eyes. THIS was the album to change all that - and not just for me. It had such a profound effect because it didn't destroy my faith in those bands but simply widened my musical horizons. And I was not alone. I knew LOADS of guys who had this album but refused to admit it. Before I knew it I was buying albums by Earth Wind and Fire and things would never be the same.

Classics from beginning to end - Bernard and Nile had THAT sound which proved difficult to resist - you HAD to move to it unless you were dead. This album set the foundations upon which modern dance was based. Where would Hed Kandi be today?

Saw this on Amazon at an unbelievable price and had to go for it. An absolute gem.

discos masterpiece 3 Mar 2006
Format:Audio CD
The follow up to Chic, this album has come in many differing forms, some with Dance Dance Dance and others not. To capitalise on the music of the first album, the uk label released 'Tres Chic' with the same tracks, but in a poor order. It was pulled and a disco classic was born. From the lush cover art to the inner picture of Nile and Nard, this a pure funk/disco album. With the vocals of Lucy and Alfa, Niles iconic playing, Bernards funky bass, tonys tight drumming, Robs keyboard work and people like Luther Vandross in the background it's gonna be good. Now of course everyone knows 'Le freak', but listen to Happy Man, hear the music taking shape as the track builds up into a life of the 70's playboy. Hanging out all night with the jet set and he parties every little chance he gets. While 'At last I am free' can seem to go on it does have great sadness in those vocals and 'Savoir Fair' might seem like practise time, other tracks like 'Sometimes you win' and 'I want your love' (the groups biggest UK hit) show the group and Nile and Nard at their best. Pure disco and brilliant for it. Forget disco drones, this is the real thing.

see my review of Risque, because this is more of the same - with smoother production.

Deeply cool.
