“Just One Look” was written, and originally recorded by, Doris Troy in 1963. It was later covered by The Hollies (1964), and Anne Murray (1974), but Linda Ronstadt’s release in 1979 was the biggest hit for the song, and is the inspiration for Chic’s arrangement. As with all Chic's solo releases, "Just One Look" has been recorded in two separate keys for the male and female vocal ranges.

“Let's Get Away From it All" is a 40's jazz standard made popular by Frank Sinatra when he was with the Tommy Dorsey orchestra. Rosemary Clooney also had a hit record with this song. As with Chic's inaugural release, "Let's Get Away" has been recorded in two separate keys, which are sold separately. Both pieces of music are arranged in the jazz style of the Sinatra/Clooney originals, and they dance like a dream.

"Love, Love, Love Me Honey Do" is a classic Patsy Cline tune. It's an upbeat song with a catchy chorus! The energy increases throughout the song with a key change at the middle break, and again on the closer.

"Man Smart, Woman Smarter" was recorded by an eclectic list of artists in a wide variety of styles. Our version was inspired by the Jamaican feel of the recording by Dr. Victor and the Rasta Rebels. A note about the male vocal range package...the reference vocal is sung by Jon Jones who sports an amazing BASS voice. For his music, we took the female tracks and changed it by a single half step (one click) to put it in the sweet spot of his bass range. The male vocal range package will include Jon's reference vocal, but the music tracks will be in the average male vocal range. For those tracks, all the live instruments were re-played and not shifted. If you want the track that matches Jon's vocal you can either purchase the female range music (and then shift it +1 in your software), or you can purchase the dual key package where we have included instrumental tracks in all three keys.

“Monday, Monday” was written by John Phillips, who claimed to have written it in just 20 minutes. Released by The Mamas & the Papas in 1966, it quickly rose to #1 on the charts and was the only #1 hit for the group. In March of 1967, the Mamas & the Papas won a Grammy for “Best Pop Performance by a Duo or a Group” for this song. Dancers recognize this song the moment it starts, and they sing along!

"Mrs. Santa Claus!" A lesser known holiday song from the iconic Nat "King" Cole. It's a fun, bouncy, happy song about the woman who apparently keeps the North Pole running smoothly. She feeds the reindeer, wraps gifts, packs the sleigh, puts spice in the brownies, keeps his red suit clean, offers advice, reads the notes from girls and boys and puts in toy orders…all while singing a “merry, merry, Christmas song.”
