Review by David Payne

Rufus Thomas – I’m Still In Love With You (1973) Alright, let’s get one thing straight: Rufus Thomas knew how to throw down. This 1973 funk bomb from Stax Records hits hard and doesn’t let up. Produced by Tom Nixon, this album is raw, gritty, and dripping with soul. It’s not perfect—it’s real. And that’s what makes it stick. The genre? Funk/Soul. The vibe? Pure fire. Let’s talk tracks. First off, the title track, "I’m Still In Love With You." Man, this song slaps. Rufus comes in like he owns the room—smooth but sharp, like a knife cutting through butter. His voice has this raspy charm that just grabs you by the collar and says, “Listen up.” The groove is tight, basslines are nasty, and those horns? They hit like a punch to the gut. You can’t help but move. It’s one of those songs where you’re like, “Damn, I’ve heard this before,” even if you haven’t. Classic energy, no cap. Then there’s "I Know You Don’t Want Me No More." This joint’s got teeth. It’s slow-burning, almost sulky, but packed with so much emotion it hurts. Rufus lays it all out here—no filter, no frills. He’s pissed, heartbroken, and still kinda hopeful. The way his voice cracks on certain lines? Feels personal, man. Like he’s talking directly to you. The drums are simple but heavy, letting the vocals do most of the work. By the end, you’re either nodding your head or staring into space thinking about every bad breakup you’ve ever had. What’s wild is how I’m Still In Love With You feels both timeless and stuck in its era. It’s 1973—funk was king, soul was life, and Rufus was out here reminding everyone why they fell in love with music in the first place. But here’s the kicker: listening to this now, it doesn’t feel dated. Sure, some production quirks scream “retro,” but the heart of it? That’s eternal. So yeah, Rufus Thomas didn’t reinvent the wheel with this album—but who cares? He didn’t need to. He made something honest, sweaty, and unforgettable. If you’re looking for polished perfection, keep walking. But if you want music that’ll grab you by the soul and shake you till you feel alive again, this is your ticket. And hey, fun fact: Rufus could probably teach modern artists a thing or two about passion. Just saying.

The intro for this sampled on a number of rap tunes in the late 80s. They usually slowed it down.
