About this album

Take It Off is a sharp, streamlined Chic album that extends the group’s dancefloor intelligence into a more polished early-’80s funk-disco sound. Issued in 1981, it followed the band’s late-’70s run of era-defining hits and carried forward the partnership of Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards, whose guitar, bass and production instincts gave Chic their unmistakable glide. The album balances tight rhythm work with cooler, more reflective songwriting, showing how Chic could adapt as disco’s commercial peak faded without losing their musical precision. It remains an important part of the band’s catalogue and a strong example of their post-peak elegance.
