[@FARID1870]

Another example why the 1970s still were the cooler decade than the 1980s.

[@siobhandeguerin9221]

I am a forever Chaka fan. I can listen to her music all day every day on replay all the way and it will never get old. Her music is as relevant today as it was back in the day. Period.

[@paulevans240]

❤Yes, indeed. And the band was so tight

[@Oregontrailblazin]

I never ever missed Soul Train. I remember this like it was yesterday!!!!

Ray Parker Jr. wrote this song at 18 years. His first #1 hit. He’s the rhythm guitarist on the original recording.

[@muffs55mercury61]

Yes. It was a no brainer that he'd be going places before long.

Chaka's first #1 R&B Hit w/Rufus. After all these years, it's still my favorite song to hear and see her perform LIVE!

[@tylerhackner9731]

Legendary! My mom was 7 that year (she turned 55 today, loves Chakas music)

[@jacquelinebailey6346]

Happy Birthday to your Mom.

[@jacquelinebailey6346]

I love Chaka too.

[@phinebrowngirl5467]

Happy Birthday to your Mom🙏🏽🙌🏽

Happy Birthday to your mom 🥳🥳🥳🥳🎂🥂, I was 8 that year...I turned 56 in December

[@rickyb5062]

Happy birthday Momma! I’m 53 this year! We loved Chaka as kids and still do…right??! 😘

[@debramolley2561]

And she's got all her clothes on, imagine that ! I'm so glad I was young when real music was around, thank u God

[@littleogeechee223]

LOL! Everyone used to tell my cousin Lucy that she looked like a white version of U, Chaka. She did! With blonde hair. Two incredibly beautiful women. RIP my Little Lulu! Love U!

[@nealrothchild3470]

They were a great group. The musicians were awesome. Chaka Khan was simply irresistible. Thank you for posting.

[@rarabarak825]

I smiled through this whole video. You looked like such a baby! I'm so happy i've been a fan of yours for all of my life.

[@evelyns7510]

So darn gorgeous 😍😍😍😍 look at baby Chaka

[@BrunoandAnthony]

Funkaholic's delight. Such a tight guitar and bass. Chaka's range is off the charts.

[@najwadeckard713]

My Queen, my Sistah. High school graduation party with my Chaka Khan feathers and pewter wrapped arms on stage belting out this song while my classmates partied on the dance floor. Thank you for your years of servitude and keeping me alive to this very day!! You've Got All The Love, All My Lifetime!!💖

[@davekleinknecht-rh7mt]

Absolutely the most Beautiful woman and talented woman ever. Loved her at 10 years old. White boy from Newark Nj. ❤️

[@stepfonmccall]

Queen Chaka 😍😍😍♥️♥️💐💐👑 so young and breathtaking gorgeous!!! One of the R&B greatest artists and queens ever!!!

[@dustyroze150]

now u see👀 ware Prince got hiz style from! u lookin at her💜

[@2lemonades]

My Brother's, the 2 oldest, oh boy... Chaka was their fantastic fantasy They had posters of Her all over their rooms It was how me and my Sister started decorating our room. Good times growing up in the 70's

[@rickyb5062]

So good! Posters, afros, 45’s, polaroid cameras, Hi Fi stereo speakers as tall as us! 70’s! ♥️♥️♥️

[@QueenMalaysia1016]

I can say one thing about being a kid of the 70’s it was a beautiful time ❤️🖤💚🥰

[@ronaldlane1597]

This song has Ray Parker jr playing the guitar and bass I believe. It was recorded just before Tony Maiden and Bobby Watson joined the group.

[@Generalbas1972]

Ray Parker Jr wrote the thing :P

[@kennethwashington3919]

So glad I was18 in 1974❤😂

[@autumn4993]

stunning and talented!

[@Pazuzu12]

I'm as bent as a 6 bob note, but this woman was and will always be my first crush, lol

[@travislatigue4957]

It's so funny, she dances the exact same way today and throughout the years she's been performing. She's still Chaka. ❤

[@NDGOCHYLD]

Been in love with Chaka since Rufus but I was born in 83. Thanks to Soul Train...🥰♥️🥰♥️🥰

[@user-mb1sy9uz6z]

Happy Birthday Chaka!❤❤❤❤

[@chjj9371]

Such amazing vocals. Check out her and Rufus covering Crosby, Stills and Nash's "Love The One Your With". She blows the roof off the joint with her range. Damn fine looking then and still is 50 some years later, like fine wine!

[@m.p.w.333]

When you hit the high notes and then insert the vabrato it's sheer Chaka. Soul and Rock. Yes 👍 🙏💙🌎👩‍🦳

[@qg3726]

If memory serves Me correctly I recall that Rufus was an off shoot of the American Breed based out of Chicago. Their tune "Tell Me Something Good" alerted me to this Band.

[@muffs55mercury61]

I've heard that too !

[@MsRemoteViewer]

I was 14 and was glued to my TV… love you family ❤️

[@muffs55mercury61]

Thank you for 50 years of awesome music. Of all the hit singles this was my favorite. 1974 was not particularly my favorite year in life but the music uplifted it big time.

[@gloriouslove9009]

I remember when my mother bought this debut album home ‘rags to Rufus’ I played a groove in this album

[@Flowerchild1986]

One of my favorite funk bands to ever come out of the 1970's❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@miciabrown]

As Soul Train was definitely a Saturday morning ritual for me, I can't believe I missed you and Rufus on this episode, as well the one before. This is the song that attached me to your voice, and that you co-wrote it with Ray Parker Jr. is everything ❤!

[@Dan-vt3nk]

Awesome!

[@dspirit444]

Rufus is and was a badasss band🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@tenofspdes]

Chaka is the Greatest Female Singer Of All Time. G.O.A.T🔥

CHAKA KHAN!!! One of favorite artists and an amazing person!

[@emiliacanet9960]

2023 awesome and forever

[@maryellenbeale2188]

She is everything! I have worshiped and adored her since I first heard her. Took her records, tapes and 8-tracks on vacation with me as a teenager!

[@rubberbiscuit99]

What a gift to see this video! This song thrills me all the way from the top of my head to the ends of my fingers and toes! Pure deliciousness. Thank you! 🔥❤️

[@3x3mm]

Talented hot lady! Hey Chakamy childhood soundtrack!

[@safina1253]

Great Vocalists, Great Musicians, Great Music. Really Great. Feels so Good. Thanks. Love You Chaka Khan, Always!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kevinkevin1820]

Phenomenal vocalist!

[@safina1253]

Yes . A LEGEND.

[@oneto5118]

This woman is amazing, I watched a interview where they asked her how it feels to be called a legend and she is so humble she said she doesnt think of it like that. Chaka is timeless 100 years from now when we all gone Chaka is gonna still look 39 years old and entertaining people in 2122 .she just doesnt age . Btw Chaka If you want a husband I'm available in 2022 😜 You're awesome Queen 🥰🤗

[@ItsJustJodieLove-ej4il]

I watch this at least twice a week

[@LooseBooty-ik5cs]

Chaka..you and the fonky Tony Maiden were gold together! The man I learned rhythm guitar from!

[@user-ry7rm5ji2j]

Shaka oozes with funk.

[@tingdzinkochu]

What I would give to be in this band, with this Queen . . . .?!?

[@jeffreypattie7150]

Was blessed to see her do this, I rem Mike went out and xhakasamazimg vocal could stillbe heard, powerhouse, 2nd to none..I went with 2 very pretty girl, one was a ct, she dressed to the hilt thinking she'd out do chaka, never , in every dept chaka rule that night and 4 the rest of my life, going back to gigs and revisiting tunes, is crucial 4 us sr citizens, who can look back at this and say thank you god!!! No auto tuning drones, just the perfect instrument god gave to lady chjaka

[@chadfelts739]

Chaka! Still love ya.

[@hermonbluesmaclin-theboogi6830]

I remember watching this and thinking, I've gotta do that too! You inspired a whole generation of players and singers Chaka!!!

[@tytrenholme8023]

This was the first time I experenced Miss Khan the Empress of FUNK while blasting Soul Train on the TV Saturday afternoons, I was 10 years old. I finally had the privilage to experince this talented essence front row, live 40 years later. It blew my mind. Thank you Miss Khan Peace ✌⚓

[@pikenova48]

A Masterpiece, an absolutely brilliant song. Chaka Khan is simply amazing and a very skillful singer!!! 😄

[@Generalbas1972]

[@theodorejohnson1746]

That bass line is crazy #rayparkerjunuor#

[@reneehicks4629]

The bass guitar you hear at the beginning and throughout the song is Ray Parker Jr the same person that wrote “Ghost Busters” for the movie and also wrote for New Edition. I love this song!

[@redbrown7355]

Renee Hicks the entire song is Ray Parker Jr. He wrote and played everything on it.

[@redbrown7355]

@Mr McGoo No. That's Dennis Belfield. But the song was written by Ray Parker Jr. when he was 18yrs old. And it was hit first hit record ever.

[@msl5253]

@@redbrown7355 The song is written by both Ray Parker Junior and Chaka. They both have song credits, and RPJ tells the story as well.

[@pakpala1]

Chaka's voice is the best...

[@hman7236]

Beautiful 😍 🤩

[@rossieculpepper3522]

Chaka.....you changed my life. 'Live Stomping at the Savoy' was like witnessing a UFO. I was totally slack-jawed. It was then that I decided bass guitar was Waaaaay cooler than the trombone I was playing in band. I was a citrus-fed white boy in the Florida deep south......but I had a Cuban aunt with that album......it was like I had discovered Music for the first time. Why arent you and Karen Carpenter in the RHOF???? I love you, Chaka. I was a staff bassist in a large church for over 10 years, and my dream is to play bass for you on 'Stay' On my headstone will be written ' The good Lord will stand behind, but understand we are blind......to fate. That's life.' I hope to live long enough to see you inducted. You are special in my heart, and I wish you much happiness. Notwithstanding the many great singers: You and Karen Carpenter, as drummers and singers, are the best of the female voice. Xoxo
