Best kept secret Chic album!5
If you are one of those that still can't get over the fact you didn't have the money to buy every single Chic production back in the late 70's when Nile Rodgers Bernard Edwards ruled the dancefloors, this one is for you! Norma Jean was the first female Chic singer, apearing on the first two albums in 77 en 78. Her solo album is a full blown Rodgers/Edwards production, and easily compares to all Chic albums from those days like C'est Chic and Risque. Including floorfillers Saturday and Sorcerer it's one of the best kept secrets from the Chic era, when Nile and Nard not only brought us Chic itself, but also their famous productions for Sister Sledge, Sheila B Devotion and Diana Ross.

This CD re-release also includes all extended 12" versions and the a- and b-side of the 79 single that was supposed to be on the never released second Norma Jean album, making it a 5 star issue in my book :)

DISCO DAYS4
The gorgeous Norma Jean never achieved Chic's commercial success although Saturday, Sorcerer and High Society did well on the disco charts. These songs, especially the 12" mixes, are still the best tracks on this album, plus I Like Love. It's not quite the same as Chic, the arrangements are different. Saturday is my favorite, I love the tinkly bell like sounds that start coming in from the middle of the song. Sorcerer has similar sound effects. I Like Love is very uplifting too, but the rest are filler ballads, pleasant enough but nothing to e-mail home about. All in all a very welcome release with all the new material.

HOW much????????4
'Saturday' and 'Sorcerer' are two world-class disco tracks - but £348 for the c.d???? You're having a laugh.....Norma Jean
