Seal in Red is the eleventh studio album by funk band Rufus, their debut on the Warner Bros. Records label, released in 1983. Seal in Red, which was the band's third album to be recorded without Chaka Khan, peaked at #49 on Billboard's R&B Albums chart and included the single "Take It to the Top" (US R&B #47). Despite featuring guest appearances from a host of other distinguished names in the R&B/Soul/Funk/Jazz genres like keyboardist George Duke, who also produced the album, singers Patti Austin and Ivan Neville and saxophonist Ernie Watts, Seal in Red was only a moderate commercial success. * Tony Maiden - bass guitar, guitar, vocals * Kevin Murphy - keyboards, vocals * Bobby Watson - bass guitar * David "Hawk" Wolinski - keyboards, vocals * John "J.R."
