Lost in music - Sister Sledge

Kim, Debbie, Joni and Kathy Sledge formed Sister Sledge in 1972 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The four sisters (sister number five, Carol, preferred to stay outside of the music business) had a reasonably successful start of their career, but by the end of the Seventies, their career went into decline. It was then that they met Bernard Edwards from Chic. The disco anthems 'He's the greatest dancer', 'We are family' and 'Lost in music', all produced by Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers, became the biggest hits of their career.

Their biggest hits have been re-released several times in the UK, often in newly-remixed versions. 'Lost in Music' was one of them: it reached number 17 in 1979, number 4 in 1984 and number 14 in 1993. This single is the 1984 version, which I bought in 2000.
