Join us in The Green Room for a listening session and discussion of Rufus Thomas’ 1970 album, Do the Funky Chicken. Moderated by Dr. Charles Hughes of Rhodes College and a special guest.

Of all the landmark albums released by Stax Records in 1970, “Do the Funky Chicken” by Rufus Thomas is in a class by itself. Thomas’ first LP in four years, “Funky Chicken” highlighted a deep dose of Memphis funk combined with Thomas’ own sense of humor and creativity.
