Nile Rodgers & CHIC’s Tiny Desk Concert

posted by Jason Kottke   Oct 30, 2023

Oh, this is a good one: disco, funk, and hip-hop pioneers Nile Rodgers & CHIC play some of the most rousing and joyful music ever witnessed on the Tiny Desk Concert stage / corner of the NPR office. Here’s what they played:

“Le Freak”
“I’m Coming Out”
“We Are Family”
“Get Lucky”
“Good Times”
“Let’s Dance”

Name a better six-song set. I’ll wait. (Ok, maaaaybe this one.)
