Chaka KhanThis week in 1989, @ericclaptonreleased JOURNEYMAN, an album that became one of the biggest records of this period of his career. Listen closely to the opening track, “Pretending,” and you’ll hear Chaka among the background vocalists alongside bassist Nathan East. Chaka turns up again on “No Alibis,” joining East, Lani Groves and Greg Phillinganes on background vocals, with another familiar voice, Daryl Hall, also featured on the track. “Pretending” became a major rock-radio hit, reaching No. 1 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart, while “No Alibis” later climbed to No. 4 on the same chart. Another reminder that Chaka’s voice turns up in some unexpected corners of some very famous records. Do you remember this track? #ChakaKhan #EricClapton
