GOURANGA MIXTAPE: Greg Wilson - The Chic Organization - 1977-79 Selection Reworked by Gouranga published on 2018-06-21T22:15:51Z GREG WILSON presents The Chic Organization – 1977-79 Selection Reworked Greg writes about the mix and all things Chic at his blog: http://blog.gregwilson.co.uk/2018/06/the-chic-organization-1977-79-selection-reworked/ Chic had a sound of all their own, the crack rhythm section of Nile Rodgers (guitar), Bernard Edwards (bass) and drummer Tony Thompson providing the highly infectious grooves that characterised their records. They would be massively influential as a consequence, their anthemic tracks still loved all these years later, with a new younger generation embracing their good time vibe in the same way their parents might have. The mix consists of 12 edits / reworks of 9 Rogers & Edwards produced tracks, all of which happened to be originally recorded during 1977-79, the years which saw Disco peak and decline, with Chic at the helm during those halcyon days, their own recordings providing 4 US top 10 singles, including a pair of #1s, whilst Sister Sledge, whose success they mentored, weighed in via the hit-laden ‘We Are Family’ LP. They even found time for a French excursion via Sheila & B Devotion’s ‘Spacer’.
