Disco Dessert 9/13/18: "Superslick" from Wham!...

"Superslick" was the A-side of the double-sided hit single from the disco band Wham! (not to be confused with the duo featuring George Michael). Paired with the song "Lovemaker", the 12" single climbed to #24 on Billboard's Dance/Disco chart in 1978. The five-piece studio act from America (which is why George and Andrew had to originally come out as "Wham! UK") released an self-titled album, never to be heard from again. Producer Jim Burgess, a New Yorker who also worked with Madleen Kane, Curtis Mayfield, and Alicia Bridges, died from AIDS-related illness in 1993.
