The News For Parrots ~ Chic 'Freak' On Peak

An interview with Chic's Nile Rodgers in The Morning Record & Journal, March 24, 1979, by James Farber

"The Barnum Room is a disco where any man who dresses like a woman can feel like a star.  Even on this snowy night, the place is filled with Marlene Dietrich types, porky Totie Fields clones and sundry Angie Bowies, all circling around the host-hostess, Eve, who looks like Jean Harlow after an auto wreck.  Nile Rodgers, co-leader with Bernard Edwards of the disco band Chic, is loving every minute of it."

Ginger is the new black.
