Rufus, Chaka Khan & Clare Fischer - Egyptian Song
I'm really feeling this song right about now so I didn't bother to see if it's been posted lately. Honestly if i knew it was posted just yesterday i still would've posted it. Enjoy.
Rip Clare. From the album Ask Rufus(1977). Rest in Peace Bettie Boo. See u soon. | |

This song is orgasmic. Pure genius. If I were forced to choose my all-time favorite Rufus & Chaka song, this would be it! "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley

Yes! Chaka's singing along with Clare's orchestration. Beautiful.
Also i was reminded of how much of an impact that Clare Fischer sound was on some of Prince's songs. The orchestration on this song automatically reminds me of Under The Cherry Moon(album). Rest in Peace Bettie Boo. See u soon. | |

All this time I thought Clare was a woman-who names a boy "Clare"? "Lack of home training crosses all boundaries." | |

Don't feel bad. Your not the only one. I didn't discover until a couple years ago that Clare was a man. Back in the 80's i used to think to myself 'I bet that clare chick is HOT ....and a freak.!" Rest in Peace Bettie Boo. See u soon. | |

From one of the best albums of the 70's to boot. Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

Their finest hour IMO. And one of the jewels on Clare's crown along with "Crystal Ball".

"Egypt Song" was one of Teena Marie's Rufus faves! Hungry? Just look in the mirror and get fed up. | |
