How strongly do you feel the bassline for MOST of those songs
arerelated to
the Chic catalog? ("....these - are - the - good - times....")

rapper's delight does indeed use "Good Times" itself as its musical
basis and were sued by Chic (who eventually got songwriter credit). 
queen's bassline on "another one bites the bust" is pretty much a rip
of the "good times" bassline.

btw, though i love "jam on it" and other early electro-type stuff, my
early 80s favorite is still junior's "mama used to say."
