Chic was an early 1980's phenomenon as a disco band with some amazingly simple lyrics (some sung, some spoken seductively by the band), catchy tunes, linear easy-to-dance-to beats and a signature funky bass lines, the most notable from "Good Times," which was re-used and resurrected in many successful disco, house and pop hits. Another notable hit was Le Freak ("Freak Out") which highlighted a snappy guitar riff in A minor that rivaled my all-time favorite guitar riff (from C to A minor) in Cliff Noble's The Horse.
Getting back on point (which is a constant problem for me), I believe the group's best effort and most paralytically powerful bass punch-thump was featured in the song below.
Everybody Dance, actually says it all.
Pump up that volume, crank up that bass boost and you'll feel this disco diamond from the soles of your feet to the top of your chest. Dazz invites you to click on either the hyperlink or the video player, if your browser makes it available to you.
Go to it! Enjoy this.
