AGNIFIQUE! A statement so true, the groove still resonates in 2011. Chic were formed in 1976, and bridged the divide between Disco and R&B with stylish and sophisticated grooves and rich, lush orchestration. Chic produced a truly unmistakeable sound that has inspired and influenced many recording artists and producers over the last 30 years. They were also the catalyst to rap’s first real crossover hit in The Sugarhill Gang’s Rapper’s Delight’ via their heavily sampled hit ‘Good Times’.

‘Magnifique!’ contains 37 delicious slices of soulful grooves from their 1977 debut ‘Dance Dance Dance…’ (#6) via ‘Everybody Dance’ (#9), ‘I Want Your Love’ (#4), ‘Le Freak’ (#7),‘Good Times’ (#5) right up to 1992’s ‘Your Love’ (#3 Billboard Hot Dance Chart). Also included is the rarely available instrumental B-side of Carly Simon’s hit ‘Why’ which was performed, written and produced by Chic. Packed with a 2,300 word liner note, this is an essential 2CD set to grace any collection.
