Ray Cooper on percussion. He and Nathan were in Clapton's Unplugged only months after this. I can recommend Fourplay - Between The Sheets live with Chaka and Nathan. She was blushing the whole song.
Sad that few folks really are aware of those names, who they are/were, and how good they made the music and live performances of that and current era. Nathan has performed on rock, pop, R&B, funk, jazz and it keeps going.......they should do more film documentaries on the guys who played on the records and live.....amazing artists.

Paul Jackson Jr. on guitar...Nathan East on bass...Greg Phillinganes on keyboards...Steve Ferrone on drums...and Ray Cooper on percussion...with all the love and respect, I don't think people realize for a moment that this are one of the best session musicians you could and will get in this world. This guys have participated in 90% of the albums from the 70's to 00's...ALL. The music quality of this live concert is something non-existent anymore sadly. And Chaka...well that's all. Bye.
Why she sing like that!!! Hitting the high note like it's nothing!!! Smiling like she just playing, if that's me, I will be losing my breath hitting the very low note!!!! One of the best!!!
I have the same quality for Celine Dion's cover of Whitney Houston songs wayback 1992 and Mariah Carey's Love Takes Time at Arsenio Hall with the same quality.
So beautiful, as if Chaka is saying while performing: I am just expressing myself, I don’t have to impress you. Because if that spirit she has in her performance, she appears so magical throughout the rendition. So beautiful I love it. ❤
Not bad to look at and dream about either.....at least back then.... I remember her Chicago and Rufus days very well.....she was that Black female superstar who did not sell out her body and do nude photo shoots.......not a Pam Grier.....but equally beautiful. Subject of many erotic dreams......
Unbelievable band! Greg Phillinganes on keyboards, Nathan East on bass and backup vocals and Paul Jackson Jr. on guitar. This is a show that I wish I had been at!

I love Chaka and this song is one of my favorites…still speaks to me today! It’s a combination of her beautiful, unique voice, this song’s amazing melody and the lyrics. These lyrics struck a cord with me in the early 90s and still do in 2024! Thank you Chaka!!
I know. I listen to this on repeat and try my damnedest to just be OKAY. I've been listening to the album version so I figured they had her in the studio prepped and she went off but figured live it wouldn't be as good. I'm depressed, she actually sings this amazingly without any effort. She's a treasure.

Exactly. She is a musician’s singer because she is a singer with a mind of a musician lol. She uses her voice like an instrument. She has jammed with some of the best there is.
Many of these female RnB singers were trained in churches when they were children, in the 50s, 60s and 70s. The result was that in the 80s we had women with powerful voices in American music. After so much training since they were kids, singing for them, ended up becoming like breathing, it became a natural thing for them. Today we, unfortunatelly, don't see it anymore.
@@mackpatterson4911 that’s true. Chaka even said it herself in one of her many interviews. Her younger siblings kinda grew up in church but she didn’t.
They make it looks effortless ... immense talent. Chaka's voice is from another planet. And Nathan looks like he has 2 brains: one is playing bass and the other is just enjoying the act like he's part of the audience ... do they still make artists like these?
I have watched almost every cover for Chaka through the fire and this didn't disappoint at all (SOULFUL). especially the quality of this 91 camera. if it wasn't for the bassy and his dance move Plus the shirt !!! :) this video could pass for 2020
Come on here!!! August 2020 still jamming this. Reminds me of my Dad who passed in 1991. Whom I love dearly. I remember after him and my mom divorced when I would go to his house as a teen and listen to this and cry. Blessings Chaka Khan 😘♥️

Chaka's voice is why God hasn't destroyed us yet.

That was one of the best comments I ever read 😀
Kikikkkiki
Que frase marcante ❤
That FRO!
Hell yeah ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤!^%#^%!!!
From a southern white boy, Chaka is the sexiest woman alive !!
he is PLAYING that tambourine!!
Ray Cooper...
he absolutely is!
That's Ray Cooper, famous session man of the time
0:00-4:56 is the best part by far. Chaka is untouchable.
2:30 ain't bad either
The best voice in the word
My mans is playing the hell out of that tambourine
Is that Creed from the office?

Nathan East on bass, Paul Jackson Jr on guitar and Greg Phillinganes on keys. All star band.
The guy singing her backup also has a lovely voice
Ray Cooper on percussion. He and Nathan were in Clapton's Unplugged only months after this. I can recommend Fourplay - Between The Sheets live with Chaka and Nathan. She was blushing the whole song.
I think the drummer played on Clapton's Unplugged too. Steve Ferrone perhaps?
Except for Paul Jackson Jr., it's Eric Clapton band.

. . Soo correct ! We are not worthy ! . .
Was that Steve Ferrone?? Gee I couldn’t recognise him. I really only heard Steve for the first time with Eric Clapton on tour mid to late 80’s.
My soul knows it, brother or sister
Seeing all of them play together is literally on some All Star level stuff… they’re all of my favorite session musicians..
she is a voice acrobat... How she hits those notes and moves from chest voice to head voice so effortlessly, just legendary. love chaka!
she does not have head voice
Low-key one of the most grooving bass lines of all time.
TH-cam: “Inside bassist Nathan East’s California castle” Oh my Jesus…blessed man!
That low end bass sound
Gets me in the feels every time
The background singer knowing when to back off is impressive
She is RIDICULOUSLY amazing!!
Indeed she is!
Effortless power, impeccable timing, charming dynamics and the confidence to know she can do it all without breaking a sweat. Unbelievable
That tambourine player is the example of taking pride and joy in your job, no matter what it is
Exactly..
I'm pretty sure he plays more instruments than just the Tam.
@@dla116z3 of course, most percussionists do
Yes for sure.
The Great Ray Cooper👍
Why she sing like that!!! Hitting the high note like it's nothing!!! Smiling like she just playing, if that's me, I will be losing my breath hitting the very low note!!!! One of the best!!!

She does so effortlessly
Her voice is a instrument 👑🔥
This was 91???? What the heck? Not even movies in 91 had this type of video quality
Professional vídeo format (BETACAM, BETACAM DIGITAL, U-MATIC, SVHS, M2 Panasonic)
No kidding! What quality!
A lot of the Montreux archives from this period are outstanding. Tori Amos has a DVD from this period and it's super high quality.

I have the same quality for Celine Dion's cover of Whitney Houston songs wayback 1992 and Mariah Carey's Love Takes Time at Arsenio Hall with the same quality.
man the tambourine guy is having the best vibe!
I’m so glad to live in the time of Chaka.

I don’t how to makes sence of this .. her voice raspy yet crystal clear @ the same time, like a force of nature she is seriously gifted

She's so beautiful.
Yes she is
Right

That Afro is everything I love that she always has voluminous hair
What kind of 90s camera quality sorcery is this

As a drummer for 65 years... I know talent... wow!
I've seen Chaka live and it was an outer body experience she play her voice liike an instrument .

Get back to church peoplez
Trained? More like go to church and sing along nothing mythical going on here haha naturally gifted
Chaka was not trained in the church, she went straight to the streets, but I get your point
@@mackpatterson4911 hi Mack, do you know more bout her history? Tnx!!!
@@mackpatterson4911 that’s true. Chaka even said it herself in one of her many interviews. Her younger siblings kinda grew up in church but she didn’t.
God is definitely inside this woman...I cry every time I hear her sing😘🙏🏼
