The album was released in the UK and Europe at a time when interest in Rodgers and CHIC was high for various reasons: the publication of Rodgers' autobiography in 2011, the appearance of BBC television and radio documentaries about him, the popularity of his collaboration with Daft Punk, "Get Lucky" (which is referenced in the compilation's title and sleeve art), and a series of acclaimed live performances including one televised from the Glastonbury Festival on the weekend before the album's release.
Most of the tracks featured are 12" versions and are mastered to match the pitch and tempo of the original vinyl releases; this resulted in some tracks having slightly shorter running times than on other CD issues.
Up All Night reached number 2 in the UK Compilation Albums Chart for the week ending 13 July 2013.
Track listing
All tracks written and produced by Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers, and are the original album versions unless otherwise noted.
A second version of the album was released in October 2013, omitting some of the less well-known tracks in favour of three UK number one hits produced by Nile Rodgers, a new megamix and a live medley taken from Chic's performance at the 2013 Glastonbury Festival.
