Thanks. I'm not as technology savvy as I used to be so I wasn't sure how to do that. "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley

just speaking my mind [Edited 11/15/09 13:33pm] You know I'm only messing with you But I'm partial to Ms.Stevens(so you know I'm biased), and I love her rendition of "Castles Made Of Sand" as well ONLY because she wasn't trying to sound like him, in fact I don't recall her ever trying to sound like the people she covered in her whole discography.

It's part of what made her a legendary star. Yup.... To wail and sing key and in control very few people can do it. I've seen Chaka in concert at least once a year since 74. With the expception of the times she's been high, she's never given a bad performance or mailed one in, Both videos don't do the woman justice. I can assure you she sounds, her band 10 times better than on those videos. | |

I've seen Chaka in concert at least once a year since 74. With the expception of the times she's been high, she's never given a bad performance or mailed one in As much as I adore Chaka, she has been having some issues with control over the last several years. Her best performances as of late are the ones where she keeps the wailing to a minimal. And as far as her concert performances, Chaka has always had the reputation of being a notoriously unreliable live performer. I've seen her in concert several times and each time, she was perfect. However, I've heard far too many horror stories from other people over the last 20 years or so who said they saw her in concert and she sounded horrific. And there are the stories of her strangely exiting the stage in between songs and, many times, she forgets the lyrics to songs she's been singing for years! Some of this feedback I've gotten from some of her hardcore fans fairly recently. "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley

Some of this feedback I've gotten from some of her hardcore fans fairly recently. Hmm. Hasn't really been my experience, saw Chaka last year twice, small venues and Sista was on point. Though at one of the concerts/venues I noticed she did A teleprompter though, it appeared she didn't need it nor used it. The only time I've has an issue as I've said before when she' been high. I think the year was 1980 Chaka was so high she was holding/swinging off the curtains of the theater, they ended up having to reschedule that concert. | |

From what I understand, that "problem" has been corrected. At least for the time being, let's hope so.

A friend of mine told me she went to see Chaka back in the early 80's. Chaka stumbled out on stage, looked at the audience and said "Who the fuck are all of you?" "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.!
