1	The Very Best of Rufus Featuring Chaka Khan (1996) more music like this by Rufus & Chaka Khan The Very Best of Rufus Featuring Chaka Khan contains all of the group's biggest hits, including the number one R&B hits "You Got the Love," "Sweet Thing," "At Midnight (My Love Will Lift You Up)," "Do You Love What You Feel," and "Ain't Nobody," plus the Top Ten hits "Tell Me Something Good," "Stay," "Hollywood," "Sharing the Love," and "Dance Wit ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
2	Ask Rufus (1977) more music like this by Rufus & Chaka Khan Rufus was one of the most respected groups in the '70s and '80s. Although lead singer Chaka Khan's charismatic vocals were their drawing card, few outfits boasted the skill as Rufus as a band. Songs like "Please Pardon Me," "Sweet Thing," and "Fool's Paradise" are a few of the tracks that displayed the perfect marriage. This 1977 effort is the ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $8.66!
3	Rufusized (1974) more music like this by Rufus In the early '70s, Rufus was one of the most popular and interesting bands in R&B and rock. Of course, the reason was Chaka Khan, who possessed an amazing voice that was well versed in rock and jazz every bit as much as R&B. Their debut went nowhere, Rags to Rufus offered two instant classics, and Rufusized displayed their skill as album artists. ... see all copies from $6.24! new only from $8.66!
4	Rufus Featuring Chaka Khan (1975) more music like this by Rufus & Chaka Khan One of the most talented bands of the '70s, Rufus Featuring Chaka Khan is the groups' fourth release in close to three years. Although this effort doesn't have the epiphanies of 1974's Rufusized, Rufus Featuring Chaka Khan has them becoming more established as one of the best bands in R&B and pop. The first track, Gavin Christopher's "Fool's ... see all copies from $6.81! new only from $8.66!
5	Live at Birdland (1997) more music like this by Jimmy Bruno & Bobby Watson This excellent set from guitarist Jimmy Bruno can easily be divided into two. The first four numbers (which include "Move" and "Grooveyard") showcase Bruno in a trio with bassist Craig Thomas and drummer Vince Ector; the guitarist mostly swings quite hard. The other six songs feature the great altoist Bobby Watson, who takes spirited solos on ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
6	Stompin' at the Savoy (Live) (1983) more music like this by Rufus & Chaka Khan Rufus' 1983 double LP, Stompin' at the Savoy (Live) was an ambitious, eccentric, and occasionally patchy affair that grew out of a series of live shows the group staged during 1982. With Chaka Khan at least temporarily back in the fold, the band stunned packed audiences with an energetic set of old favorites and new material, even as a second Khan ... see all copies from $17.65! new only from $17.65!
7	Masterjam (1979) more music like this by Rufus & Chaka Khan As Khan released her first solo album, I'm Every Woman, the band released 1978's Numbers, sans Khan, and it went absolutely nowhere. Masterjam finds them back together, renamed Rufus and Chaka, with Quincy Jones producing the effort. Khan had worked with Jones on his 1978 album, Sounds...And Stuff Like That. The most striking thing about Masterjam ... see all copies from $9.82! new only from $35.57!
8	Beatitudes (1983) more music like this by Bobby Watson & Curtis Lundy Altoist Bobby Watson's third recording as a leader (following obscure efforts during 1977-78 for Roulette and Pye) was the debut release by the tiny New Note label. Teamed up with pianist Mulgrew Miller, bassist Curtis Lundy (the co-leader of the date) and drummer Kenny Washington, the quartet performs five of the altoist's originals, one by Lundy ... see all copies from $11.34! new only from $11.34!
9	Present Tense (1991) more music like this by Bobby Watson After a period of time, Bobby Watson's Horizon became one of the top hard bop-oriented regular bands of the early '90s. Comprised of the leader on alto and occasional soprano, trumpeter Terell Stafford, pianist Edward Simon, bassist Essiet Essiet, and drummer Victor Lewis, Horizon performs "I Got It Bad," "Minority," and ten originals by group ... see all copies from $6.75!
10	Tailor Made (1992) more music like this by Bobby Watson This CD was altoist Bobby Watson's first as the leader of a big band. He leads the orchestra through a dozen of his compositions, none of which they had performed together before meeting up in the studio. But due to the high caliber of the players, the music came together smoothly. In performances ranging from modern hard bop to Latin with subtle ... see all copies from $19.99! new only from $23.55!
11 view cover	Live & Learn (2002) more music like this by Bobby Watson Live & Learn, Bobby Watson's Palmetto debut, is an engaging quintet disc featuring Orrin Evans on piano, Greg Skaff on guitar, old friend Curtis Lundy on bass, and up and comer Montez Coleman on drums. It's a high-spirited record, melding hard bop ("River Jordan," Pamela Watson's "Stanky P," Dawn Warren's "Why Not") with more soul-tinged sounds ( ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
12 view cover	Horizon Reassembled (2004) more music like this by Bobby Watson & Horizon For his second Palmetto Records release, saxophonist Bobby Watson reassembles his 1990 hard bop quintet known as Horizon. On Horizon Reassembled the quintet that fans referred to as "the happy band" revisit their commitment to the music and to themselves on such great songs as "Pere,""Xangongo,""Eeeyyess," and "Horizon Reassembled." The set opens ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
13 view cover	Strictly Saxophone (1998) more music like this by Various Artists This light jazz compilation includes mellow saxophone tracks by Bobby Watson ("Love Remains"), Denis DiBlasio ("Sugar Buzz"), Mike Tomaro ("I'll Remember April") and Leo Potts ("Three Street Scenes"). John Bush, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99!
14 view cover	Advance (1984) more music like this by Bobby Watson Bobby Watson leads a quartet in a 1984 concert in Germany on this CD, with pianist Jim McNeely, bassist Todd Coolman, and drummer Adam Nussbaum. The alto saxophonist's extended solo that opens "But Not for Me" is a bit unusual, as it is initially staccato before he gradually smooths out his sound to resemble his normal tone in a driving bop ... see all copies from $37.26!
15	The Inventor (1989) more music like this by Bobby Watson Altoist Bobby Watson's group Horizon was starting to solidify at the time of this Blue Note recording. Most selections feature Watson with trumpeter Melton Mustafa, pianist Edward Simon, bassist Carroll Dashiell and drummer Victor Lewis; pianist Benny Green, up-and-coming tenor Willie Williams and percussionist Don Alias are guests on a few ... see all copies from $39.26!
16	Post-Motown Bop (1980) more music like this by Bobby Watson & Horizon After dropping the synthesizers and reformatting his group Horizon in 1990, alto saxophonist Bobby Watson recorded one of the most memorable CDs of his career. His opener "The Punjab of Java Po'" is a powerful hard bop number with elements of East Indian and Brazilian influences, while its catchy bass vamp supports strong solos by pianist Ed Simon ... see all copies from $69.96! new only from $155.85!
17 view cover	Jewel (1983) more music like this by Bobby Watson Sextet Bobby Watson had not inked a major label recording pact and was not a finished improviser when he cut these songs in 1983. What he did not lack was intensity, passion, and drive, and those served him well. His solos and playing are spirited, and he builds and completes ideas impressively. Likewise, pianist Mulgrew Miller and vibist Steve Nelson ... see all copies from $7.22! new only from $14.57!

20 view cover	Midwest Shuffle (1993) more music like this by Bobby Watson This interesting live CD, which includes some rather frivolous but harmless on-stage dialogue, features Bobby Watson's group Horizon. The quintet (comprised of altoist Watson, trumpeter Terell Stafford, pianist Edward Simon, bassist Essiet Essiet and drummer Victor Lewis) was one of the finest hard bop units of the time and one of the few that ... see all copies from $8.99! new only from $8.99!
21 view cover	Balance of Light (2003) more music like this by Mark Kleinhaut Trio/Bobby Watson Guitarist and composer Mark Kleinhaut's fourth album as a leader, Balance of Light, finds him collaborating with the great alto saxophonist Bobby Watson and making music of an unusual warmth and joyfulness. That feeling is generated, in part, by the fact that the entire program consists of compositions written by Kleinhaut specifically for this ... see all copies from $6.95! new only from $16.38!
22 view cover	From the Heart (2008) more music like this by Bobby Watson Bobby Watson credits Art Blakey with showing him the ropes through the apprentice system, which included recruiting up-and-coming musicians, giving them advice, plus encouraging the younger players to write charts and originals for the band. Watson's Live & Learn band is such a format, a successor to his earlier on-again, off-again Horizon, with ... see all copies from $14.76! new only from $14.76!
