Description
Late-1970s band Chic distinguished themselves from the overproduced disco hordes with an organically rhythmic sound that stemmed from Nile Rodgers's staccato guitar-playing and Bernard Edwards's funky basslines. In addition to producing their own disco hits such as "Le Freak" and "Good Times" (the latter of which jumpstarted a music revolution when it was used as the sample for the first-ever rap single, the Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight"), the Rodgers and Edwards team also wrote anthemic hits for Sister Sledge ("We are Family," "He's the Greatest Dancer") and Diana Ross ("Upside Down," "I'm Coming Out"). This program finds a reunited Chic (minus Edwards, who died in 1996) performing these songs and more at the 2004 Montreux Jazz Festival.
