  The Observer | OMM | Interview: Rufus Wainwright
Rufus Wainwright, lauded by his peers as the most extraordinary songwriter of his generation, used his tortured relationship with his famous family to feed his muse, and took so much methamphetamine that he went temporarily blind.
Rufus Wainwright sees himself in some senses as the true heir to Verdi, clinging on to his every operatic note as if for dear life, violins swirling as he unpacks his heart, mixing American songbook verve with raw self-revelation.
Rufus has an older brother's love of his sister; he included a picture of himself and her as toddlers on his first album.

 VH1.com : Rufus : Biography   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
Powered by Khan -- who was eventually billed in addition to the group -- and an unerring sense of groove, Rufus scored an impressive string of hit singles on both the pop and R&B charts, which lasted through the '70s and up to Khan's official departure in 1983.
Although Khan's dynamic stage presence helped this version of the band take off, Stockert was still the guiding force when they signed with ABC in 1973, and he lent a more pop/rock flavor to the group's self-titled debut, released later that year.
Although the album sold poorly, Rufus gained a fan in Stevie Wonder thanks to their cover of his "Maybe Your Baby." Wonder gave them a new composition, the slowly grinding "Tell Me Something Good," that he'd written specifically with Khan's vocal style in mind.

 Rufus/Chaka Khan
In the early 70s scramble to succeed Sly Stone at the top of the funk genre, Rufus appeared: a multiracial band armed with a batch of compelling tunes and a phenomenal lead singer, Chaka Khan - possibly the most capable singer in the history of the genre.
By now Rufus was in Spinal Tap mode, replacing their drummer with every new LP - this time it was John Robinson.
The credits say Rufus played all the instruments themselves (except the horns), but the backing tracks sound suspiciously close to contemporaneous records like Michael Jackson's Off The Wall.

 On Musonius Rufus: a Brief Essay
He exemplifies the sort of man who should have been venerated and made the founder of a world religion, but was not, yet he was the moral superior in my opinion to Jesus--not perfect, but admirable within the context of his own day.
Gaius Musonius Rufus was a Roman knight of Italian (Etruscan) birth, but dedicated his life to Stoicism and to preaching moral lectures in Greek and teaching all over the Empire, as well as involving himself in moral causes even at peril of his life.
He lived between 30 and 100 A.D. and his fame in antiquity was far greater than modern ignorance of him suggests.
