B'MUSCLE Don't know where you were hiding this one.. Chaka's singing here took me there .. with some of those legendary Chaka-Tony-Chaka-Tony vocal fills that only happens between the two of them.. this is the voice that launched a legion of fans, admires, devotees, shameless imitators and hopeless wannabes.. Smokin' Room live is a real treasure.. that whole B side of Rags to Rufus flows good .. I gonna get my vinyl out right now and turn it UP! . Thank you!

One of my favorite bands. I saw them in concert in 1975; it was fantastic! Chaka Khan is definitely one of a kind. Thank you so much for posting!

This takes me back to when I first saw Rufus back in the day when they would have free outdoor summer concerts in Hampton Va. I recall seeing them twice in a six week period.Became a fan the and will always be one.

RUFUS WAS ONE OF THE "ABSOLUTE BEST BANDS" IN THE MUSIC BUSINESS!!! The intricate arrangements they were able to master were out of this world...Only they could keep up with Chaka without missing a beat and compliment whatever vocals she would come up with!!!

@BLAQUEMUSCLE It Really was!!! Cuz soon as they hit the scene copycat groups came outta the woodworks from everywhere like roaches trying to immulate & capitalize on their unique sound!!! Both were often imitated but never ever duplicated!!! EVER!!!
