Chaka Khan – Epiphany: The Best of Chaka Khan (Burgundy Vinyl LP)

Whether she’s bending a note, perfectly soaring above or below a melody, sliding into a peerless funk groove or reaching out to us with aching clarity on one word – there’s a perfection and a precision to the music of Chaka Khan that, decades after her recording debut, is still without comparison. For female vocalists, Chaka Khan has provided the standard to follow, crossing with ease the borders between rhythm & blues, jazz, pop, fusion and funk to become not just one of the premier vocalists of our time, but one of the few female singers who can legitimately lay claim to the term “Diva.” Available on colored vinyl LP for the first time, the inspiring 1996 compilation Epiphany: The Best of Chaka Khan includes such classics as “Tell Me Something Good,” “I’m Every Woman,” “Papillon,” “What Cha’ Gonna Do For Me,” “I Know You, I Live You,” “And The Melody Lingers On (Night In Tunisia),” “Ain’t Nobody,” “I Feel For You” and “Through The Fire.”
