Chic's greatest hits album holds up a lot better than most artifacts of the disco era, a fact that can be attributed, largely, to splendid musicianship; the instrumental core of the group--guitarist Nile Rogers, bassist Bernard Edwards, and drummer Tony Thompson--was as telepathically tight as predecessors like Booker T. and the MGs and perhaps even a bit more inventive. As a result, the group's seamless combination of irresistible rhythmic grooves and catchy pop hooks--heard here to best advantage on such period anthems as "Le Freak" and (especially) "Good Times"--still sounds fresh.
