Wow!!!

In the end this is a sophisticated track with so much class, and I wouldn\u2019t expect any less from Nile or Candy.<\/p>\n<p>This flits between 1960\u2019s funk, into 70s disco, smooth like butter house piano into this groove that you just can\u2019t resist\u2026 the hitmaker, the source of Nile\u2019s power is doing its job here as well as Candy\u2019s breath of life like sax playing\u2026. It\u2019s beautiful.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t need any introduction here as to who they are, but Candy came on my radar with the release of \u201cLily Was Here\u201d &#8211; I fell in love. What a player! She plays with sass, her voice just speaks for her through her instrument.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>As for Nile Rodgers, he\u2019s one of my heroes, I actually discovered Chic by accident while looking for another song from my childhood many years ago\u2026<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Then \u201cGet Lucky\u201d came out and changed my life forever.
