@Powlee07 Wikipedia says they had 1 obscure song that charted in the 60s. That gave them very little notoriety. In fact, when Chaka came along in the 70s, most of the band members had changed from the 60s were gone. The band might have launched her career, but it was Chaka who took them to stardom. So much so Stevie Wonder decided to collaborate with Khan to write one of their signature hits. This pushed the band to a new success and successful longevity they’d not had before..
This was the first lick I ever heard from the Empress of FUNK while blasting Soul Train on Saturday afternoon when I was 10 years old. It completely blew my mind. I wore out 3 copies of this album playing it non-stop on the record player. It was LOVE instantaneously. And still is. Much love, peace, and respect Miss Khan, the grooviest person I have ever experienced. ✌🎗⚓
@@allenlevelle Patti Labelle would have to born again to compete with Chaka...she only wish having a 3rd of the relevant back catalog Chaka has, plus her international fame. Chaka Khan is by her own right "Queen of Funk", like Aretha was the "Queen of Soul", Donna Summer was the "Queen of Disco" and Tina Turner was the "Queen of Rock 'N' Roll". There aren't much space for other queens except maybe for Gladys Knight, the legitimate "Empress of Soul". Period. Natalie Cole is a whole different story, she also managed to become an international household name by her own right, with an interesting diversed back catalog too...
Oh my god this is the song that made me come to know such woman with this big talent existed I was ten years old watching soul train and I’ve been a fan of hers every since that day and still is she’s my hero
I'll admit that during this time that coincided with my UCLA years, most people that new me or of me new that Chaka was my lady at least in my mind musically while I was on the dance floor at least, she really did it FOR ME!!!!!!!!!!! And Rufus was one of my favorite musical groups.
I seen Rufus live 1977 or 78 in Kalamazoo MI $7 general admission . After entry we would always work our way to the front row next to the stage so close we could feel the sweat. Strange *NO SHOTS FIRED* Only boy meets girl days.
YOU GO CHAKA KHAN, ONE OF THE BEST OF ALL TIME. I LOVE YOU MRS KHAN I ENJOYED EVERY SONG YOU PUT OUT THERE. FRANKIE CROCKER CALLED YOU LIPS AND HIPS HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA. REST IN PEACE FRANKIE CROCKER AND DON CORNELIUS.
Seen her perform in Baltimore about 1977-78.. Me and Mickey. They found the beverage we tried to bring along. It was different funky good time. Almost Spiritual....
@@lifeworksndhenterprisesllc6597 Chaka Kan is not a Black Woman. Look up her Nationality. Native American. Blackfoot Indian. Look up her Biography. She herself always said: I am not a Black Woman/ Negroe
I don’t know if the audio is from the original show or synced using recordings by the person posting this. I suspect the latter. Pretty good job if that is the case. But I was looking all over for Lennie Pickett during the tenor sax solo on Have A Good Time!
@@Chicanaloca in the 70s we did a lot of miming to music here in Europe but I didn't know miming was so usual in the states that time as well. Anyway I've played bass with Chaka live, no miming! ua-cam.com/video/_xssKtgw678/v-deo.html
😆 LOL. As great as this is it's ashamed their not really singing it. Back then they wanted it to be perfect for those watching on TV. This is still awesome. Have a Good Time is my jam. That's what you call music. I'm obsessed with how she came to start singing with them. This band was originally an all white band in the 60s.

Chaka's voice could send your soul to another level.
She is just everything. Beautiful voice. She smiles when she sings. That is so lovely. She has so much energy and brings so much to her performances.
No smartphones, no Internet. Full fells good 70's❤
Im 57 and still in love with this woman's presence. Ain't nobody can do it like you did. Somebody will catch that later.
I second everything you just wrote. I'm 57 also and after all of these 47 years, she's still memorizing.
I remember the song "Like You Did"
I'm 75 and just love her and her work! :)
Let's hope this woman will have a movie out in the future
Who would play her???
@@allenlevelle some new chick will play. Everybody gotta wait and see
@@allenlevellenicki minaj
I believe there's one in the making 😂😂

Get it Chaka! Sista girl was wearing that outfit..

YES SHE WAS!!✊🏾👍🏽🤑
Lord she was so Fine!!!
Chaka wore the hell out that pants.
The good old days I was young & all was right with the world !! 😎
Chaka Khan one of the sexiest and most talented women ever in music!
🤔🤔🤔😮 Really?
@@malakahbanathyasharahla2302 yes

Chaka Khan is the one and only!
Agreed!!
Chaka is a true icon and Queen! I came age listening to her music.
Baby she taught us how to feel good & not worry about a mother effing thing ...we get lost in the music when she sings
im a 70's baby and i still love and listen to my oldies but goodies.....Yes chaka......
Happy Birthday Chaka!! Gotta re-educate myself on Chaka's oldies!!❤❤❤Chaka & Rufus!!❤
What a concentrated little stick of dynamite! I loved her then, and I love her now!
Chaka put Rufus on the map and when she left took them off.. You can't hold that kind of talent back.. She's was a presence no denying it.
Liked her better with Rufus

THE GREATEST FEMALE SINGER NEXT TO ARETHA FOR ME. MY FAVOURITE FEMALE SINGER EVER.
Don't forget Patti LaBelle, Natalie Cole, or Minnie Ripperton..... IJS... And there's more Female performers I forgot to mention....👍👍👍💯

Too bad this is lip-synched, but it still is awesome, and my Lawd can Chaka shake and sang it!!!
sorry, I don't saw that (I'm french) I try to fix it and reupload, happy new year
i hate when back in the day tv broadcast would make singers lip synced to their own songs… never understood the reason why!?
WHERE ARE THE HORNS?
Too much money for daytime tv!

She made huge mistake leaving Rufus.. they where hell of a band...
Not, she went on to become more successful as a solo artist, which led to her being inducted into The Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame
@@Mark-rw9gw She could have done both is all I'm saying. She didn't have nearly as many hits as a solo artist that she had with Rufus..
