Circule déjà sur le web des enregistrements pirates des concerts de PRINCE à Londres d'Aout 2007.

Il y fait une reprise princière de Le Freak par exemple le 8 août dite Sexy Dancer feat Le Freak. Il nous montre tout le génie dont il est capable : il réinterprète à sa manière (et quelle manière !!!) le titre mythique avec un jeu de guitare princier à la hauteur de Nile Rodgers.
Ca dure 2mn50 et il conserve bien le refrain "Le Freak c'est CHIC" !

Extrait d'un jourmal londonien :
"He (PRINCE) closed the show with a cover version of Chic's 1978 disco classic 'Le Freak', whipping the crowd into a frenzy with people dancing in the aisles, on their seats or any space available."

C'est de la balle

je vous dis !

Vous trouvez comment ? Je la trouve génialement princière en ce qui me concerne.

How do you feel for it ? I think it's a terrific cover !

Hello Pocat and Frenchic,

Yeah it's a very funky beat ! A very CHIC beat !
It sounds like Brass Construction too ( changin' and movin' )

I like it - Prince is too much

It's very minimalist, and funky.

btw: did Prince show up in Leuven?

No , no, unfortunately PRINCE was not present in Leuven.
I hasked Rich Hilton about PRINCE coming : he said CHIC was not aware of that.
But he has met PRINCE in studio during recording sessions of some Nile Rodgers work. He said PRINCE is not very sweet with someone he does not know.
