Les Plus Grands Succès De Chic: Chic's Greatest Hits, also known as The Best of Chic, is a greatest hits album by the American R&B band Chic, released on Atlantic Records in late 1979. It includes the biggest hits from their first three albums: Chic (1977), C'est Chic (1978) and Risqué (1979).
The seven-track album, which omits the 1979 hit single "My Forbidden Lover" and replaces it with "Chic Cheer" and also combines three 7-inch edits and one extended 12-inch mix with three album versions, was the only compilation to be released during the band's six years on Atlantic. It reached #88 on the US charts and #30 in the UK in early 1980. Non-US editions dropped "Chic Cheer" for "My Forbidden Lover". The compilation was the first time that the 12" mix of "Everybody Dance" was made generally available, having previously been issued only as a promotion.
All tracks produced and written by Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers, except "Dance, Dance, Dance (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah)" co-written by Kenny Lehman.
