Recorded at The Power Station, New York, New York.
In the 1970s, disco was dominated by anonymous artists and flash-in-the-pan singles; which is one of many reasons why Chic towers over the era. For starters, Chic was a real band--a tight-knit quintet led by the twin lights of producers/songwriters Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers (also on bass and guitar, respectively). Secondly, Chic created a consistently high caliber of sophisticated dance music that fused funk's rhythmic principles with disco sheen. Between the band's debut and the release of their classic single "Good Times," Chic released C'EST CHIC.
Due largely to Edwards and Rodgers's crisp, articulate production-- which makes the band sound like the JBs on Manhattan's Upper East Side--Chic achieves a perfect cross-pollination of urban and urbane. The streamlined, minimal groove of "Chic Cheer," the album's opener, is a call to the dance floor, and Chic delivers the goods with "Le Freak," a smash single and one of the movement's defining anthems. Another dance hit, "I Want Your Love," with its tubular-bells hook, abuts smooth balladry like "At Last I Am Free." Chic replicated this record's style on subsequent releases, but never equaled its success. C'EST CHIC is a template for how disco should be done.
