A vibrant mid‑70s funk essential, Rufusized captures Rufus and Chaka Khan at full creative power — a tight, groove‑driven band matched with one of the most electrifying voices in soul and R&B. Originally released in 1974, the album blends deep funk rhythms, rich horn arrangements and Chaka’s unmistakable vocal fire, delivering a set packed with energy, attitude and irresistible hooks.
This 2025 Italian reissue brings renewed attention to a classic era of the band’s catalogue, featuring standout tracks such as Once You Get Started, Pack’d My Bags, Right Is Right and the instrumental title cut Rufusized. A superb addition for collectors of 70s funk, soul and Chaka Khan’s early work.
