Dance, Dance, Dance

“Dance, Dance, Dance,” a dance-floor filler as the title implies, was Chic’s first hit single. In 1977, the band recorded it as a demo and shopped it around to various record companies, all of which rejected it. Shortly thereafter, a small label called Buddah decided to take a chance and released it as a 12″ single. The song’s success on the club charts led to the band’s discovery by Atlantic Records. Toward the end of 1977, the band signed with Atlantic, and the song was re-released nationally.
