An overlooked cover tune LXVIII

I've written previously about Chaka Khan's "Ain't Nobody," "The intro draws me right in every time.  This is one of Khan's most powerful hits that doesn't leave your mind easily after you've heard it.  'What Cha' Gonna Do For Me' has a similar effect."

Thanks to WSIE, I've been reminded of how well the tune's melody retains its funk as a piano/saxophone instrumental.  If you haven't heard Tom Grant's version, check it out.
