Very solid CHIC album in all but name. Standouts are "Saturday", "Sorcerer", "I like love" and the ballad "I believe in you".Both "Saturday" & "Sorcerer" were released as singles, but should have been much bigger hits.Be sure to check out Dimitri From Paris' 9 min + EPIC remix of "Saturday"--much better than the original LP mix.

Classic Niles Rodgers Disco Funk! Contains Saturday Night and rare groove Sorcerer

Norma Jean Wright (born in Elyria, Ohio) was the lead vocalist of the soul, R&B and disco group Chic, from 1977 to 1978. She left Chic in 1978 to begin a solo career, billed as "Norma Jean" & this album was produced &, in the main, written by Bernard Edwards & Nile Rodgers as a goodbye & thankyou. This album has the classic Edwards / Rodgers stamp all over it; rock solid groovy b lines & funky as hell whacka whacka guitar riffage... layered on top of this foundation are some classy soaring string & brass orchestration & of course Norma's sweet soulful voice. To me the stand-out track on this album is 'I like love' which is 5.42 of pure goose-pimple inducing disco funk soul gloriousness... Opening with a simple Rodgers guitar riff, layering on an Edwards bassline & suddenly giving way to a full on orchestration & vocals which builds & builds until it suddenly drops away at 3.03 where we are treated to a jaw-droppingly glorious 2 minutes worth of midsection breakdown with Rodgers riffing his heart out building with incremental layers of Edwards bassline, strings & Norma Jean vocals until kicking back in at 4.04 with a full on crescendo & outro... This is utterly utterly smile-inducing & it's such a crying shame this tune wasn't pressed to 12" as it is crying out for a full phatt pressing.
