CHIC-Tongue In Chic


Chic's latest is far short of past creative and commercial peaks. Problem may lie with the apparent reluctance of Rodgers and Edwards to showcase the talents of vocalists Alfa Anderson and Luci Martin, except on "Hey Fool," a catchy, melodic tune that's the best cut on display, and "When You Love Someone," a mellow ballad. Instrumentation is faultless, of course, but the spark is missing, even on the first single, "Hangin.'" The Chic reputation will probably ensure reasonable sales activity, however.
