Chic-Ism

CD (Item 442341) Atlantic/Wounded Bird, 1992 -- Condition: New Copy

Much later than classic vintage for Chic, but still pretty darn great -- and a record that was relatively overlooked at the time! The style here steps off strongly from the Chic sound of the early 80s -- and the team of Edwards and Rodgers still definitely have their funky sense of rhythm intact -- using drum programs, basslines, and riffing guitar bits to set most of these tracks up with a tightly snapping groove! The vocals are a bit more contemporary -- presented in the way that some pop dance work of the time was using, but not nearly as cloying. Titles include "Chicism", "Your Love", "Jusagroove", "Something You Can Feel", "Doin That Thing To Me", "MMFTCF", and "High".  © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
