64 years old in this video and still sounds like she did when she was 31! Get it, Girl!

Bring it on home Gwen! I'm still rocking with ya in 2022

Pure talent is something you don't see anymore. I miss artists like this.

I’m obsessed with her voice. She’s a legend!

Gwen still sounds as awesome as she did in the 70's with everlasting beauty.

A favorite of mine too, but then they were all my favorites!

Song reminds me of the smiling days of music that hits your heart.

Realizing that "Rockin' Chair" was a huge hit over 30 years (1975) prior to this, I gotta admit, I was almost afraid to give this new version a listen! After hearing it, Mrs. McCrae, baby....you can STILL MAKE THAT CHAIR ROCK! EXCELLENT! Long live the talented, beautiful superstar Gwen McCrae! You got it going on there lady!

I watch performers from the old days, not hoping they replicate the original; but to celebrate their continued existence, to see that we have traversed through time and continue on the living side. So many have moved on,,,

She's almost 70 n Rockin! Still HoT! Love her talents!

I love this song and i really love when they are still living .

I'm 22 and I love this lady.

Lotta memories from the Summer of 75. Sexy song. I was 13 at the time. Turn on the radio that summer and hear this and "Get Down Tonight," "Why Can't We Be Friends," "The Hustle" and other great R&B/dance nuggets. Wasn't it fun the songs back then would come out and grab you and take you in.

I was 15 and was totally lost in the great music of our times, Redbone was holding court, and then someone said, "Let's do it again", Betty whispered, "Tonight is the night" ,,,

She looks good and still working with what GOD gave her and shaken what her mother gave her i'm glad she didn't go shopping for new parts like some of old country &rb or all the others did and still do.

Is she sick???

yeah Gwen and her husband George McCrae set the 70's off together,, both 2 talented people

Man, I'm having an eargasm listening to her!

I love the look on her face. She appears like she loves to sing. So happy looking.

I dug this song BIG TIME when it hit the airwaves in about '75-76? My dear GOD, Gwen is 64 in this......and sounds like she did when she was half this age. I'm SO happy when a performer is able to keep it like they always had it....giving the middle finger to father time, so to speak. God Bless us all. jbeinarizona

On this day in 1975 {August 15th} Gwen McCrae performed "Rockin' Chair" on the NBC-TV musical variety late-night program 'The Midnight Special"... At the time the song was at #59 on Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart, and just two weeks earlier it had peaked at #9 {for 1 week}, it spent 14 weeks on the Top 100... Exactly one year earlier on August 15th, 1974 Gwen's husband George McCrae was at #36 on the Top 100 chart with "Rock Your Baby", one month earlier on July 7th, 1974 it had peaked at #1 {for 2 weeks}... Ms. McCrae, born Gwen Mosley, will celebrate her 74th birthday this coming December 21st {2017}...

Beautiful - in every sense!! Hope to be lucky enough to catch her in concert soon.

I love it ...I remember my sisters swaying those hips from side to side with those go go boots...I can see Toni Braxton singing this with pair of those go go boots and a mini skirt.

Rock on, Gwen, you still got it! :)

love this woman and that voice sends me to happy places.

Just as good as the original.....if not even better! Gwen, you are awesome!! Such a talented singer and a natural beauty!

Gwen looks and sounds absolutely fabulous!!!!!!!! What a classic soulful sound unlike the rap crap/ Ga Ga thing you hear today...Glad I'm old enough to remember when this was a hit back in '75! Good times...Great memories!

One of my Mom's favorite songs. She use to sing it randomly. ❤️

She definitely still has it!

Great memories along with her husbands songs!

Bought this song in 1974 on a 45, when I was a kid, with my allowance money at JC Penny, and played it non-stop on my record player. She still sounds great at the time of this recording. Wish I could go back.

LOL I bought this the same time is you shortly her husband big hit Rock Your Baby. Both of them songs came out close together I believe! I usually bought my records when the new ones came in on Tuesdays at FW Woolworth, hence the dime store it was called back then.

@@BugzKiller Yeeup. I had George McCrae’s song ‘Rock Your Baby’ on 45 as well. Another classic. Great era of music! I spent all my allowance $$ on 45s from JC Penney when I was a kid. I had probably every top song from 1971 to 1976 on 45, and sold all of them at a garage sale for $10 years ago, before I knew how much they were worth. What a dummy ha ha !

Love it! Sounds great.

Still Looking Good,and Damn This Voice ....GREAT!!!

HS n the late 70's was some cool shhhht, n times,,, love this stuff

Summer '75. WOW! Spent that summer listening to Grand Funk and Jim Croce, with a major crush on Linda Blair! Played the hell out of this song (and others) on my K-Tel albums.Thanks for the memories. Much appreciated from Canada.

Girl you rock me to the bone. Thanks for stirin those memories of the early 70's...

Wow, she's even better these days...just goes to show what fools the media are for focusing on "young (talentless) hotties." Sexy older women jam! And that note she holds during the break, damn, girl, keep it up!

Alright now Gwen, looking and sounding great!

One of the sexiest songs of our time. Whenever I hear it on the radio, I crank up the volume. The music and her voice!!!!!!!

This is to Gwen , I don't know when this was recorded , I guess when you were 35-40 , you are still " Drop dead Gorgeous " Please don't ever stop performing for us , you look Gorgeous in PINK !! We will always Love you forever , I Love you in this song ! Thanks for ther memories ! God bless Gwen McCrae !

This woman is beautiful, cause she's got SOUL!! Get it on! Rock me...

Still the music 2013

Hit #1 soul, #9 pop in Billboard. 1 hit wonder on the pop chart. God bless!

Gwen hit #9 in Billboard, 8-2-75. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx!

Super cool lady. Thanks for the music. Beautiful Gwen

I have read some of the past comments regarding this video of the Beautiful Gwen McCrae , and to those D-Bags who have posted negative comments you nust be Gay or something wrong wiith you . If you can't wish for the chance to Hold her in your arms and want to Kiss her there is something wrong with you . Gwen is Beautiful !! She also has a beautiful voice , what a Woman ! I will always Love Gwen !

Just a thought...Why doesn't someone get a tour going of great superstars like (my suggestions) Gwen McCrae, Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose, Al Green, Stylistics, Freeda Payne, Betty Wright, O'Jays, Honey Comb, Blue Magic, Bloodstone, Hues Corp., Chic, Donna Summer, George McCrae, KC & Sunshine Band, Timmy Thomas, Roberta Flack, Rose Royce, Heatwave, Odyssey, Instant Funk, Con Funk Shun, Starpoint, Stargard and stars like that? I'D PAY GOOD MONEY TO SEE IT! Let's do it, PLEASE! FANS R WAITING!

Gwen, been a fan since before you called our RB office and asked us what you should call your album. Girl, you ain't lost it one minute!

To the knucklehead twins here...the original came out 36 years ago! Your ages probably total less than that combined. If you were classic old school, you'd think differently. Gwen still sounds AWESOME. And I'll bet she can move just fine.

The best singer 70s..I love this song "keep the fire burnig"

I heard this song at an "old head" club that I go to...brought back memories, downloaded and now I can't stop playing it.

One of the best! Gurl ...you did that! 👏 Wow 👏!!!

Just watched George as well on KZread!! So Cool and lots of Great memories you two!

She ROCKS!!! Always ROCKS!!

SHE STILL LOOKING GOOD AFTER ALL THESE YEARS?

Love the way you sing...!!

Same here...mid 70s...I was 5-6 years old...this song NEVER left me. I would only hear it once every so many years...couldn't find a way to listen to it...then it came on sirius radio...saw the name of the singer...that was it!

I feel the same as smakdad01 , I would love to see a tour of those great stars of the 70's and would pay any amount to see them . Especially " Hone Cone " & Gwen Mcrae , would love to see the Cystals with La La Brooks also . I Love Soul Music .

Gwen you have took me to church then you made me feel like I wanted to dance. I agree with every ones comment I have most of your cd's put the first time I seen it live. You are awesome. lol (The Queen)

Fabulous! ¡Fabulosa, esta mujer! And one of America's top soul sisters. Go, girl! You're the best! ¡Mil gracias, Gwen!

You go Gwen! You still sound so sultry and sexy. Thanks for singing this. Amazing. You sound just like you did back then and are such a beautiful woman! Keep on rockn' Gwen....... I listen to this at least once a month or more on my ipod along with her husband George's "Rock your Baby" which was almost's Gwen's song too!
