Product Information

“Halston, Gucci, Fiorucci” – these were the lyrics that ushered in the golden age of Disco from undoubtedly Disco’s greatest all-sister band – Sister Sledge. ‘He’s The Greatest Dancer’ launched the phenomenally successful ‘We Are Family’ album which resulted in a US Number 1 R’n’B album and Number 3 US Pop smash going platinum with ease. This was the apogee of Sister Sledge’s most commercially successful period in 1978 with this single album spawning two US Number 1 singles with ‘He’s The Greatest Dancer’ and the hen party classic ‘We Are Family’.

Sister Sledge’s involvement with Chic’s Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers on production duties continued to notch up a plethora of US Chart smashes with tracks like ‘Lost In Music’, ‘Got To Love Somebody’ and ‘Reach Your Peak’ – all of which are included on this superior double package with sleeve notes by the author of ‘Chic and the Politics of Disco’ – Daryl Easlea.

This package differentiates itself from everything else on the market by also including their earlier hard-to-find rare classics like ‘Mama Never Told Me’ and ‘Love Don’t You Go Through No Changes On Me’ as well as ALL of their UK Hits which also include the ever-popular ‘Thinking Of You’, the Number 1 UK Pop smash ‘Frankie’ and the incredibly collectable Sure Is Pure remix of ‘We Are Family’ and the even harder to find Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers remix of ‘Lost In Music’.

You will be hard pressed to find a better value package on the market with such a comprehensive review of this act’s complete history.
