There’s little doubt that Chic was disco’s greatest band. By the time Chic emerged in the late ’70s, disco was already heading toward the excesses that would lead to its downfall. But Chic bucked the trend, stripping disco’s sound down to its core essentials. Their distinctive approach not only produced some of the era’s finest dance singles but also laid the foundation for urban funk, dance-pop, and even hip-hop in the post-disco era. Les Plus Grands Succes de Chic features classics like “Le Freak,” “I Want Your Love,” “Everybody Dance,” and “Good Times.”
