One of the most successful disco acts of the 70s included three men who became incredibly successful producers and studio musicians as well. The men: Edwards, Rodgers, Thompson. What was the name of their group?

I believe that would be Chic.

You are correct sir

What Disco artist did the Weather Girls (of "It's Raining Men" fame) sing backup vocals for in the '70s?
