Slightly preferable to The Number of the Beast but it will get the same score from me. Better songs as a collective, but weaker guitarwork.

Rating: 2.5/5 [Decent]

I went straight to the words and missed the tiny bit of the cover in the quoted section and read it for a second as you were saying Sister Sledge was slightly preferable to The Number of the Beast and wigged the fuck out about that compairson inside my brain for a second. Thet was fun. 🤣

Ummm...yes! I've never listened to this before.

Fun songs one after the another. I obviously know the title track, but "He's the Greatest Dancer," "Thinking of You," and "Easier to Love" are standouts. It isn't mind-blowing by any means yet it doesn't hit lulls anywhere. I will say that the closing track "One More Time" could've been placed elsewhere in the tracklist or been given a longer runtime.

Nile Rodgers works some magic here.

Rating: 3.5/5 [Great]
 
The Sister Sledge is the most successful Chic album on the list (so far - idk, i’m not pulling out the book right now). C’est Chic overstayed its welcome sometimes and had that one dreadful song. Risqué was a little disjointed and dark. This is just good time music.
