Risque

37 minutes of straight up boner music.

Mustaa diskojytää, hittibiisi oli laitettu heti levyn kärkeen ja sen jälkeen tasaantui. Ihan okei, ei mitään vikaa tässä.

Bloody love Chic (and Nile Rodgers). Forbidden Lover and my feet keep dancing are up there with my favourites of theirs. 5/5

First up, That is a top top album cover. Everyone who has working hearing will instantly know the first track. Its an all time classic tune and worth a couple of stars by itself. But what of the other 7 songs (can it really be classed as an album with just 7, granted quite long samey disco tracks?). Its obviously very influential and impossible not to tap your feet to but what i'm hearing is good times + lots of less good versions of good times. There is also the fucking awful Will you cry which led to me reaching for the skip button. Music to dance to but like most dance music it lacks any sort of depth. 1 point for the cover and 2 points for Good Times. 3/5

Super chill, ligerito, digerible y con una cantidad moderada de especias, como una pechugita de pollo a las finas hierbas. ¿Qué puedo decir? me gusta Chic mucho y fue agradable oir el disco. Canción fav: Good times porque soy basic bitch I guess. Mención honorifica: Will You Cry, porque es una balada que me agradó y a mi me gusta una balada una vez cada mil años. Mood: Tomando mi tecito caliente en un día frio pero soleado.

Divertido de escuchar y con ritmos pegadizos y bien elaborados

No havia escoltat mai aquest disc, però coneixia el seu tema "Good times", impossible no conèixer-lo. L'escolta ha estat agradable, tot i que m'han agradat més els tres primers temes, més llargs i amb estructures més complexes i allargades, que els temes més curts i directes de la segona meitat.

enjoyed

8/10 Good times es un rolololon que ya esta en el olimpo de las canciones

funky but sounds dated

Qué agradable disco, todo este sonido sí me gusta, jajaja, y creo que justo antes de iniciar los 80, ya a poco más de 40 años de su lanzamiento, uno puede apreciar hasta el día de hoy la influencia. Todas las canciones me gustaron bastante, excepto "Will You Cry (When You Hear This Song)". Aunque comparte estilos con C'EST CHIC, se pueden apreciar otras búsquedas acá. Qué risa además el "te quiero" intercalado y el "te quiero... papi" final de "A Warm Summer Night". Una media hora muy buena. 9.5/10.

Meh. There are lots of albums that have that _one_song_. This is one of those. This was released late late in the disco 'era' and it seems that disco had already run it's course.

Bängeri Skön funk

love love love YESSS funkaay disco monday morning I am feeeeling it

smoooooove bass on this album, man

Jams

Dancy

Good Times is perfect.

Not a disco fan

Not bad.

Disco-funk songs are excellent with smooth bass runs - but their slow stuff is uninspired

Oh man, funk and groove galore, I loved this album.

Repetitive, but it was fine

bops

Smooth tunes and bass lines

who said disco is dead?

Not nearly as good as the other Chic album. Mostly grooves, but not really songs.

Some late 70s funky R&B with some stellar bass. I think this record is up there with 70s funk which, although it is not my favorite, is a respectable period in music. Don’t have a lot else to say about this one. Favorite track: Good Times Least favorite track: A Warm Summer Night

This album works best when it focuses on the uptempo, guitar-driven tracks, but even the slower songs have their place here. It's clear this is an LP to dance to - the track lengths and structures are undeniable in their rhythm and catchiness. Fun to see the building blocks of early House (four on the floor beats, synth-like piano lines, and tight, compressed guitar looped) permeate this album and remember where the samples originally came from.

Disco! Deu vontade de dançar igual o Travolta. Infelizmente as musicas são repetitivas e longas.

Täysin vieras nimi itselleni ennakkoon. Heti ensimmäisen kappaleen alkurytmit kuitenkin paljastuivat erittäin tutuiksi. Valitettavasti tämän yhden hitin ihmeen ainutkaan hitti ei ole erityisen hyvä. Levyn loppu olikin sitten täysin yhdentekemää funkjamittelua ilman mitään tarttumapintaa. Ei ärsytä ykkösen arvoisesti, mutta ei myöskään anna mitään syytä kolmosen arvosanaan.

Enjoyable. A bop, but nothing too outstanding. Could probably use it for doing homework.

Eine Strat muss so klingen wie Nile Rodgers 'Hitmaker‘. Ich stehe ja auf so Funk-Kram, daher kann ich die Platte gar nicht schlecht finden, auch wenn 1, 2 Nummern hart an der Grenze zur Pornomusik entlangschrammen.

Good times is excellenté but the rest wasn't at the same calibre.

Disko, not my cup of tea

the best band to put on at a party

Great baselines. Album starts out strong but songs later on seem a bit generic. All in all a great album would give 3.5

Chic are great. This is another album that gets repetitive quickly though. It's all very Chic, all the way through, with no surprises . I didn't dislike it, I didn't really need to sit and listen to the whole thing though. Good Times is an obvious highlight here, the other tracks not quite living up to that opening track promise.

Good Times a fucking banger and a classic! Cool and funky, nice and consice. Loved some of the songs on this. Probably won't revisit but I like this kind of music. Fav dong Good Times, 6/8.

Nile and co will always get my vote

Kuuntelussa vasta perjantaina ja sopi tunnelmaan

Catchy disco. Meh.

3.5 stars

Enjoy the rhythms and beats, but the repetition quickly fades to the background - hard to actively listen to this album.

Funky classics.

I don't love disco. Don't really like disco. But damn it! When it comes on, it is impossible to not dance and smile.

Törkysen kova. Levy miltä löytyy oma top5 bassoriffi. Say. No. More.

Similar to EWAF I respect them a lot but it wasn’t my favorite to listen to.

Not as bad as I thought it would be, but nonetheless very, very repetitive. I suppose if you've got a bad case of Saturday night fever, you've just done some lines of coke in the bathroom, and you just want something steady that you can go all night to, then this would do the job. However, I don't think I will ever find myself in such a situation. Best song: Can't Stand to Love You, because it didn't wear out its welcome.

Fun, sticky melodies. Songs can be a little long and a little repetitive. But the instrumentals are lush and fun. 3.5. Favorite tracks: "Good Times", "What About Me", "Will You Cry When You Hear This Song"

Some really lush tracks on this album, that's the best way I can describe it. I liked it a lot more than the other CHIC album I listened to.

1979: Good Times, A Warm Summer Night, My Forbidden Lover

i know a lot of disco music is repetitive, which i usually don't mind... but for some reason this album got annoying very quickly.

It was ok. I'm not a fan of disco. There were some great bass lines in there.

meh - I like Good Times

Just testing something else: <a href="https://mastodon.social/explore">surely not</a>

Aw hell yeah... soon as I heard the first little riff I knew I was gonna like it. I think I need to admit that I really, really like disco haha. edit: the ballad-y songs are kinda bland, should be all upbeat numbers like the first one. 4/5 cause they're not all bangers.
