Chic: Everybody Dance
Bernard Edwards was the king of making danceable bass lines. Case in point: “Everybody Dance” by Chic.
This clip of the band performing the song comes from a 1977 broadcast of TopPop. Luckily, it starts off with a look at the bassist’s unique right-hand technique to kick off the song.
In his time with No Treble, Kevin has met hundreds of amazing bassists and interviewed icons like Jack Casady, Victor Wooten, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, and more. He's a gigging bassist performing jazz in Northern Virginia and bluegrass with The Plate Scrapers up and down the East Coast. Kevin appreciates all genres of music, from R&B to metal and everything in between. Connect with Kevin on Facebook and check his performance schedule on his website.
