Nile Rodgers hints at 'lost Chic album release'

Disco legend worked on Daft Punk's latest album 'Random Access Memories'

 Disco hero Nile Rodgers has hinted at a possible release of a 'lost Chic album'. He told the Official Charts Company: "The absolute coolest thing is that I finally retrieved some music that I thought was lost, when I was getting my first solo record deal."

"Obviously, I had a lot of my Chic bandmates play on some songs that I was working on. So, I basically call it 'the lost Chic album', even though it’s really a Nile Rodgers record. Bernard Edwards, Tony Thompson, Alfa and Luci singing on it. They’re just demos, but they’re amazing. So now I get to jam with my best friends and I think that I’m going to complete these songs."

He added: "They sound really good to me, after being tucked away in a vault for 35 years. I restored the tapes and they sound absolutely brilliant.”
