I have to be in the mood for "that Chic sound". But when I am, I don't play the whole album, but rather a Nile Rodgers playlist that includes Upside Down, I'm Coming Out, My Old Piano, Give Up and Friend to Friend.
Come to think of it, The Boss is indeed "the last great album of her popular years". I do occasionally play the whole album. My only quibble is that I think Sparkle goes on too long at the end.
IMO Take Me Higher, Every Day Is a New Day and Red Hot Rhythm & Blues are Very Good if not Great albums from her "unpopular" years.
